According to PSMA PET Scan all metastases found are in bones; so after discussion with Oncologist about options, Xofigo (Radium-223) is next
I have been taking ADT with Firmagon,
Zytiga
and Prednisone for Advanced Prostate Cancer for about a year. About 3 months ago my PSA started rising; went from 5 to 120, so the prostate cancer is officially classed as castration resistant.

Stage 4, Chemotherapy failed, liver brain and bone mets
When he was diagnosed it had left the prostate and gone to the lymph nodes so we have done the hormone therapy including
zytiga
and then chemotherapy with docetaxel, which did nothing but accelerate the cancer to everyones surprise. At that point it was under fairly decent control.

Zytiga - real experience vs the horror story of the possible side effects?
For those of you starting or on
Zytiga
, what has been your real world experience with it? What symptoms did you experience and have they lessened over time?

How should I interpret this PSA reading?
Currently on Eligard only, but plan to add
Zytiga
VERY soon and possibly/probably Docytosel. ************************************************************************************** My question: What, if anything, should I make of the fact that my PSA reading appears to have bottomed out at .53?

Dexamethasone transition - process?
As a follow up to my last post, our MO has prescribed 0.5mg of dexamethasone to be taken with
Zytiga
. That's miracle #1! Miracle #2 is that we got an appointment with Dr. Deanmeade at Johns Hopkins to discuss BAT.

Recurred G9 after surgery. Painful lymph nodes, mass and hip met.
I've seen others go other routes such as HT+
Zytiga
or some other combo. I have a biopsy scheduled, but they cant do it for a couple of weeks. I will have more info hopefully after a consult next week, but wanted to ask what this group thinks my treatment plan should look like?

What Next???
Started with
Zytiga
early on and was usually on that along with Lupron but not always. Also had a prostatectomy and radiation of left acetablum early on as that's where my largest tumor was located.

The strangest place this 5 and 1/2 year journey has taken me to date.
He prescribed a formerly prescribed xtandi and
zytiga
but as a combo in mid November, my psa dropped to 1.6 in 5 weeks. Wow happy days are here again. I also felt fantastic in comparison too the ugly chemo days.

Stage 4 , cure or remission ?
. ,
Zytiga
soon . So the question , it was mentioned , there is a chance for a cure after all radiation is complete ?. Has anyone gone down this same path and was cured ? I shure would be happy with a very long remission with ADT going forward .

Northern Ohio Medicare question
Like many, I’m on the
Zytiga
, prednisone and lupron train. Just curious if there are others from my neck of the woods that have navigated this path recently? Thank you all in advance for your consideration!

Encouraging results after two months on ADT
Lupron shot and started
Zytiga
November 17. PSA mid-December dropped to 0.47, and I've been feeling really good. Intermittent sciatica, but no pain many days. Eating healthy, physical therapy, and exercise at home. PSA on January 3rd at primary care for annual physical was 0.32.

Zytiga starting to fail, PSA rising rapidly - next steps?
Is it beneficial to do something in between
Zytiga
and Xtandi? Like Doxatacel or even BAT? Does BAT have a benefit for those with Gleason 9? The doubling time for PSA is so crazy that he'll be back up to his original numbers at diagnosis by May 2022.
