Olaparib/Durvalumab Combo Shows Promise in mCRPC
“But emerging data suggest potential activity in combinations, as seen with results reported with enzalutamide (
Xtandi
) plus pembrolizumab (Keytruda) and with a DNA-based vaccine plus pembrolizumab.”

Anyone with similar experience?
Then treated with taxotere with prednisone and xgeva injections then treated with cabazitaxel and finally
xtandi
while still getting xgeva injections monthly. The
xtandi
seemed to be working well - brought his PSA down to .80 but suddenly he had difficulty walking.

Ten year battle is over.
After 10 years of ADT, brachytherapy, IMRT, HDK,
Xtandi
, Zytiga, Xofigo, etc., my husband, Bob, passed away on Monday evening, November 6. He was able to go to Duke in late August and was approved for Keytruda under Merck's open access program.

Xtandi and alcohol
Can’t find anything in the literature to say if this has an influence on the efficacy of
xtandi
. Doctor doesn’t seem to think so but I was wondering if anybody has views on this

Jevtana [Cabazitaxel] & Androgen Status.
(d) An antiandrogen such as Casodex of
Xtandi
, if not resistant, will inhibit AR activity. (e) Zytiga, if not resistant, will prevent the conversion of pregnenolone and progesterone to androgens.

Relief of abdominal bloating and gas pain
I am having a lot of abdominal bloating and gas pain since starting
Xtandi
. I have been taking Simethicone 180 mg soft gels, gas relief and prevention enzyme supplement 1 capsule per day, and probiotic colon support 1 capsule per day.

Xtandi and Tumeric
My father is on
Xtandi
and he was told to stop taking tumeric because it decreases the effectiveness for the
Xtandi
.. he also was told to stop green tea. We recently decreased his
Xtandi
dose to 3 pills instead of 4 because he was having unusual chest pain and depression from the full dose.

Back to Chemo
His PSAs have doubled every month for the last three months and his onc wanted to put him on
Xtandi
but we were unable to afford the co-pay of $3,000 (which is the negotiated price we were able to get the drug down to each month) so doc put him on ketoconazole and prednisone in October.

Progression Report
My MedOnc, my husband and I had a good conversation about whether to start
Xtandi
. We concluded we would wait a few weeks with so much already changing at the moment.

Bipolar androgen therapy in men with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer after progression on enzalutamide.
And 5 out of 7 men achieved a 50% drop after
Xtandi
was resumed. Currently, BAT is a one-size-fits-all therapy. Men continue on Lupron, say, but receive monthly T injections ("testosterone cipionate 400 mg every 28 days until progression"). The T response is variable.

Tumeric - Good or Bad for Prostate Cancer?
Someone mentioned that tumeric might be contraindicated for anyone taking
xtandi
. Dr. Myers used to promote tumeric. Does anyone know what the contraindications are for tumeric? Does anyone know what the current thinking is about tumeric and prostate cancer?

While most of us do not have hereditary BRCA mutations, men who ultimately fail Zytiga/
Xtandi
might nonetheless respond to Olaparib.

Xtandi and Severe abdominal cramps.
Anyone experience severe abdominal cramps with
Xtandi

Why Resistance To Xtandi and Zytiga Develops
Looks like combination therapy is the way to go to delay resistance Gus http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2214388215000247
