Firmagon side effects
He's also on
Xtandi
and he's completely knocked out. Lupron injections in May didn't seem to work so that's why we switched. Thanks for any feedback you can give.

Xtandi - Pfizer ... & some big numbers.

Look for happiness in tough times
Now the doctor wants to start me on
Xtandi
with the Lupron I have been taking for 3 years. Does it seem to early or am I just paranoid about the disease come back full blown. Just looking for opinions and to try to make me feel better about the change.

CVS-Caremark to stop covering Xtandi in 2017
While I do not currently use
Xtandi
, it is unsettling news.

Next steps?
I have been through both Zytiga and
Xtandi
and continue to receive Lupron injections. I know my Seattle doc is participating in a trial using docetaxel, Carboplatin and sirolimus. The doctor ar Duke mentioned trying oxaliplatin with Gezmar.

Xtandi Copay
Does everyone have such a high co-pay for
Xtandi
? A little over $2,000? Absolutely outrageous! How is anyone supposed to afford that that cannot get a grant? They are searching around for Grants that may help with this copay. Does everyone experience the same dilemma?

Elgie Starting Xtandi
He says that if it is....then the casodex is not working so he changed him to
Xtandi
. Wondering what we should expect from
Xtandi
. He will start him out on two pills and hopefully work him up to 4 which makes me wonder about the side effects if he can get to 4.

A Week in a Life That I Wish Hadn't Happened
After being denied
Xtandi
, and approved for Zytiga, I was looking forward to moving on. (difference $1000) Last Wednesday, I had another bout of Melena, and wound up in the ER. And, again, my bladder was blocked up. My Hemoglobin was at 7.

How long did ADT work for you? How long did Xtandi/Zytiga work?
No response from
Xtandi
but PSA has decreased from 136 to 96 after 6 weeks on Zytiga. Diagnosed 4/15.

Neutrophil to Lymphocyte Ratio, Xtandi, & Outcome in CRPC
New study below [1]. I must have written more posts on inflammation than anything else. I expect that, on any cancer site, few would pay attention to a post on inflammation. It's not cancer-specific. But it is very much survival-specific. The Neutrophil to Lymphocyte Ratio {NLR}, which is reported

Cost-savings analysis of AR-V7 testing in mCRPC patients eligible for treatment with abiraterone or enzalutamide
This seems to say that the presence of any AR-V7 at all should rule out Zytiga &
Xtandi
. But what if only a small percent of one's PCa cells were AR-V7 positive? AR-V7 can be present at an early stage - certainly before CRPC. $1,000 is such a nice round number. I wonder what the true cost is?

What comes after Zytiga and Xtandi have failed?
After that I was put on Zytiga and
Xtandi
together in a clinical trial which only reduced my PSA to 53 at the lowest point but after 8 months my PSA has risen to 82 and new legions have been found so I was kicked out of the clinical trial.

Zytiga vs. Xtandi vs. Radium 223 vs. Cannabis
The effectiveness and safety of
Xtandi
were demonstrated in a clinical trial that included 1,199 men who were given either
Xtandi
or placebo. Median overall survival among men who took
Xtandi
was 18.4 months compared with the placebo group at 13.6 months.

Galeterone for the treatment of advanced prostate cancer: the evidence to date
Resistance to Enzalutamide (
Xtandi
) and Abiraterone (Zytiga) is often associated with the emergence of, & selection for, the androgen receptor splice variant AR-V7. This is a functional receptor that has no need of an androgen ligand.

Surgery not possible for L1-L2 compression fractures related to tumors
PSA is skyrocketing and because PSA and pain only increased in the 5 months of
Xtandi
, his chance of positive response to zytiga is only about 20%, according to research studies. Any advice on what to do now? Thank you for everyone's thoughtful responses and knowledge all things prostate cancer.
