Double Dosing
There have been a few posts about the illogic of continuing with preliminary ADT ie Zolodex when taking a supplemental such as
Zytiga
or Erleada. The latter are supposed to provide total androgen annihilation.

Scans look great, next step Provenge and holding off on 2nd line hormone therapies
She said that afterwards she does not want us to jump right in to a second line hormone treatment such as
zytiga
or xtandi but rather see how long he can benefit from lupron and provenge. Thoughts? I'm thrilled that his scans look good and that he qualifies for provenge!

New to site. Looking for side effects of Xofigo.
Have been on
Zytiga
and Prednisone, Xtandi. Terrible side effects while on Xtandi so they stopped it 3 months ago. Will soon be going on Xofigo and am concerned about the side effects. Can anyone tell me about any side effects they are having while on Xofigo. Thanks,

Vacation is over
I received a Lupron shot 2 weeks ago and restarted
Zytiga
. I wonder if it is even necessary to restart the
Zytiga
if my Adrenal system never restarted. Hmmmm???

How long are the 2nd generation drugs effective for? (2nd generation drugs I.e. Zytiga, Xtandi, appaludamide)
I have been told that the 2nd generation drugs (
Zytiga
, Xtandi & appaludamide) might only be effective for maybe 3 years. Is this true? Thank you for your opinion. Chris

Second opinion at Cleveland Clinic... different treatment plan
Well, insurance decided that they weren't going to cover Xtandi and said it's
Zytiga
for you! So, we headed in that direction.

Optimal chemohormonal sequencing for metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer MAY be Taxotere->Zytiga->Jevtana->Xtandi
Alternating chemos and hormonals like this seems to be optimal for metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). Other therapies may be able to be piggybacked so they can be tried sooner. https://pcnrv.blogspot.com/2019/12/optimal-chemohormonal-sequencing-for.html

What untested treatment or combo do you wonder about most?
A month of chemo, a month of
Zytiga
?

Lost the Battle
In 2018 he was on
Zytiga
for seven months until it stopped working. In January he started taxotere for a few rounds, then Jevtana and finally cyclophosphamide. He rapidly started to decline on cyclophosphamide. He was accepted into receiving Keytruda but was too weak.

Any thoughts on my next treatment plan?
Then, PSA came back and I went on Lupron,
Zytiga
and Prednisone for 9 months along with ($2800) PSMA scans at UCLA and in Phoenix and radiation which resulted in my PSA decreasing to .03.

DO I GO WITH CHEMO OR ADT DRUGS?
The doc gave me a choice of chemo or the drugs such as Erleada, Xtandi or
Zytiga
. (I have read each drug results and am leaning towards Erleada?). His advice was to go to the drugs, the nurses advice was to go to chemo, saying there are better results with early chemo.

What to ask oncologist after previous surprising appointment.
The slightly elevated liver enzymes from last month (after the
Zytiga
suspension) are back in the normal range. He’s been off
Zytiga
for six weeks and is only on Lupron and 5mg. of prednisone now.

I chickened out today
Some of you may remember that I decided to do chemo even though Lupron, Prednisone and
Zytiga
have me with a 0.02 PSA and a T <10. My only side effects are manageable hot flashes. Today my bone scan showed no new activities and some Mets that seem to b disappearing.

Real increase in PSA
I have posted in the past when my psa increased while on
zytiga
17 mos and lupron. Those were minor up ticks such as 0.009 to 0.006 etc two months ago it went to 0.5 now today 1.51 this acceleration is concerning.
