13 year Battle with Stage 4 PC
Then he was offered a clinical trial of
zytiga
+ Predisone with Xgeva every 6 weeks. He was on this trial for a year until lymph node involvement made him ineligible. The oncologist offered the chemo Taxotere - he had 3 infusions and scans showed no improvement and significant weight loss.

Docetaxel
My husband has been on
Zytiga
, Lynparza as well as Keytruda all which have failed. He is now on Docetaxel he had his fourth round today. Psa does not seem to be responding. He will have bone scans and ct scan.Is there something he can take in conjunction with the chemo?

1st meeting with RO tomorrow morning what questions should I ask?
I have been on Eligard for 50 days, well tolerated so far. planning to start
Zytiga
on Nov. 2nd. Not sure when radiation treatments will actually start. The plan they have proposed for me is 28 sessions with a total of 60 Gray using VMAT , IMRT. they use tattoos vs gold pellets.

PSA .04 up from undetectable six weeks ago
My question is should I get back on the Xtandi or possibly try
Zytiga
and prednisone. My understanding is when I become resistant to the
Zytiga
that the Xtandi has a good chance of still working where that may not be the case the other way around. Looking for what you guys think. Thank you

ADT Failure?
I am on Eligard and
Zytiga
. Since starting one year ago, my PSA had dropped from 340 to 0.18. I just received my third Eligard injection earlier this week and it had been six month and a week since the prior injection.

New Game plan
Plan is to get PSMA scan and use aggressive radiation, including SBRT if needed, as well as IMRT in conjunction with Eligard and
Zytiga
to attack the spots that show up when they are small and not to let them have a chance to grow or spread.

Rising PSA
On
Zytiga
past 38 months. Great results. Now seeing a bump from .03 to .10 to today’s .25. Wondering how high they let it go before switching to next miracle drug?

First post-ADT followup. So far so good ... but it's early
Started ADT with Lupron and
Zytiga
/prednisone. PSA dropped to 0.1 after about 4 months and to undetectable after about 6 months. - Went on a ADT vacation after about 13 months of
Zytiga
and 15 months of Lupron. - After about 9 months PSA started to rise.

Zytiga failing
My husband has reached the end of treatment with
zytiga
. Psa rising and cancer is spreading, only option now is chemotherapy. He’s 80 and doc is worried he might not be able to tolerate it. Has anybody had experience of chemo at that age? Thanks

Blood in urine
That failed, so we have been controlling it with ADT (lately
Zytiga
). I have developed a wayward metastasis in my pelvis, which was treated with radiation last January. Last night I passed a large blood clot in my urine. Has anybody any thoughts on this?

1 Year after taking Zytiga (Abiraterone) PSA from 750 to 54
This time last year he got the therapy of
Zytiga
+ prednisone 5mg a day. Before the therapy he was in poor health. He was diagnosed with MCRPC. If you read my previous post you can find out that he has multiple methastasis through out his skeleton and having pain most of the days.

Looking for suggestions
In 2020 PSA went up to 25 and started
Zytiga
and PSA went to 126 immediately which was when I started Chemo. Initially PSA went back down to 25 and after completing Chemo in April 2021 PDA went up to 50. Started Lynparza in September 2021 and PSA is 77.

Update on LU 177 and Journey
I have agreed with my Oncologist to commence
Zytiga
now and to monitor on a monthly basis to see if we can buy time. If PSA continues it upward projection than I will probably commence the fourth and fifth infusions of LU 177.
