ADT Vacation over?
Since still have my prostate, next blood draw will decide to restart Lupron and
Zytiga
if trend continues. What would you do?

Starting an Immunotherapy trial
I’m 3 years in and I have tried
Zytiga
and Docetaxel both have failed, I was planning on going on Xtandi, but got into an immunotherapy trial at Northwestern Medical Center. It’s called ARC-6. I am in an arm that will be receiving etrumadenant, zimberelimab, and AB680.

Zytiga and Prednisone at night
Is it ok for him to be taking his
Zytiga
and Prednisone at night instead of the morning? Hoping to have more energy during the day.

ADT Vacation
Today I received my final 3 mo Eligard injection and will no longer need to take the daily abiraterone acetate (
zytiga
) and prednisone. I have a withdrawal schedule for the prednisone that I developed with my MO. My psa <0,01 and T < 1 ng/dl. Pretty good result I think.

Switch to generic Zytiga
My insurance carrier has switched me from
Zytiga
to Abiraterone Acetate , which I know is the generic equivalent effective 01/21. My only concern at this point is my PSA has increased from .04 in January to .12 in July, could there possibly be a correlation? Same dosage.

Liver problems with Zytiga
My MO put me back on 500 mg
Zytiga
and will continue to monitor liver function weekly. My MO said that I was one of the unlucky 6% that have liver issues. Has anyone else had this problem with
Zytiga
?

Zytiga - Abiraterone - To take or not to take right now
The oncologist recommended I start taking
Zytiga
/Abiterone right away and my uro-oncologist felt that I should not burn a treatment right now that I can use in case of a recurrence. Upon further discussion with my wife we decided to postpone taking the abiterone until we decide otherwise.

Update on Scan Results
So he came to the conclusion that my dad will stay on
Zytiga
and they will monitor his PSA. My question is, my father’s PSA is still rising, why is that? Is it a good idea to still continue
Zytiga
?

Zytiga with Dexamethasone or with Hydrocortisone?
The doctor did not explain the reason of this switch and we saw limited sharing of using
Zytiga
+ Hydrocortisone.

Zytiga with hydrocortison
- Does the combo of
zytiga
+ hydrocortison have equal effect as
zytiga
+ prednisone /dexamethasone? Thank you for your sharing in advance

Possible side effect from ADT
After being on Lupron for 2.5 years and
Zytiga
with prednisone for about 16 months I developed severe headaches and brain fog. I stopped treatment (I was in NED), but could not convince my oncologist to run a MRI. Finally, a year later I was able to convince a neurologist to run a scan.

Advanced Prostate Cancer Update and Xgeva
So with that I have been 20 months with ADT using bicaludimide tablets each day ( after becoming allergic to
Zytiga
) and Lupron Shots each month. Took PSA down to 1.75 lowest and now 2.0.

BCR and PSA increasing...or not? <.05, 0.15, 0.29, 0.16
Thanks to all who shared comments after I posted that my PSA was increasing after a few years of undetectable readings (following RALP and then adjuvant EBRT and ADT+
Zytiga
for 18 mo, all after GS 4+3, PSA ~14, pT2n0m0).

Slow recovery from general anesthesia…PC/ADT related?
. ;-) Also wondering if my now taking Lupron and
Zytiga
/prednisone might be a factor. Best to all!

Small PSA rise after radiation: should I worry?
As previously reported, I discontinued
Zytiga
and prednisolone in early March 2021, having started them in April 2020. I have weight loss, loss of appetite, back pain and stiffness, swollen feet and ankles, and easy bruising of skin, especially on tops of my hands and on forearms.

How long does it take for Zytiga to work?
Started
Zytiga
in May but after 1 month PSA went up from 6 to 10. MO says it can happen that it takes some time for
Zytiga
to work. Anyone else that it took a while to get PSA down?

Tylex Intro
Due to the intraductal component, I chose to go with ADT plus
Zytiga
with HDR Brachytherapy (7/26/2021). EBRT scheduled to start 8/23/2021.
