Don’t like the weather here in Ohio?
Don’t fret as much like the side effects of generic
Zytiga
, wait 10 minutes and it’ll change.

LOW PSA BUT CT SCAN PROGRESSION
Then if my PSA rises my plan is to switch
Zytiga
/ prednisone to
Zytiga
/ dexamethasone and/ or try to BAT which I will have to do outside of my MO as not standard of care.

Is stopping zytiga and 5 mg prednisone cold turkey safe?
MO said to stop
zytiga
(1000 mg) and prednisone for one week . After one week , go back to
zytiga
of 1000 mg and 5 mg of prednisone. From all I have read , prednisone needs to be tapered of . What would be best? Listen to MO and not worry about tapering off

Actinium 225 combined with Zytiga
After Docetaxel and Jevtana failed last year, hubby was given
Zytiga
with Prednisone in December 2018. After researching trials, we had the option to go to USA for Lu-177 or stay in South Africa. We were immediately accepted onto the ACtinium trial here.

High T clinical trial update from a data point
Months pass then PSA rise and found a spot to rib bone, did targeted radiation on the spot and started
Zytiga
. Months pass PSA flirting with Zero then
Zytiga
started to fail (3 years in now) new spots to ribs. Started the High T trial.

Does it make a difference?
Scheduled to start firmagon next week (or possibly the week after), and
Zytiga
shortly after that. Then radiation (probably whole bed) in a couple of months.

Next phase
I’ll be switching to
Zytiga
and getting treated with CPI-1205 (ProStar) in addition through a trial. If anyone is on this regimen or has been in the past it would be great to get some tips. Thanks.

Enzalutamide + Abiraterone Acetate in Bone CRPC
Abiraterone [
Zytiga
, Abi] & Enzalutamide [Xtandi, Enza] both target the androgen receptor [AR] axis, with Abi limiting the supply of androgens & Enza restricting access to the AR itself. It might seem worthwhile to combine the two, but that would depend on how effective the drugs are.

Zytiga clinical trial
Has there been a clinical trial for
Zytiga
without the inclusion of Prednisone? If not, how do they conclude
Zytiga
'must be taken' with prednisone? My husband has not been on the prednisone while taking
Zytiga
and his labs (every 6 wks - 3 months) have been completely normal.

RP, ADT, Radiation plus Zytiga/prednisolone?
LA docs say yes, Dallas Urologists say no. Applied for financial assistance and I have a years supply in hand. 15th of 35 radiation treatments and they are starting to kick my butt.

rising PSA on cabazitaxel !
He has had doxitaxel, xtandi,
zytiga
, Radium 223 ,docetaxel ( second time) and cabazitaxel. His PSA continues to increase and today after his second cabazitaxel it remains at 95. We are so concerned since there has not been any treatment that lowered his PSA.

Abiraterone in "High-" and "Low-risk" Metastatic Hormone-sensitive PCa.
"Abiraterone acetate {
Zytiga
, Abi} received licencing for use in only "high-risk" metastatic hormone-naïve prostate cancer (mHNPC) following the
LATITUDE
trial findings." "However, a "risk"-related effect was not seen in the
STAMPEDE
trial."

How long does Lupron + Zytiga take to be effective?
My question has to do with when Lupron and or
Zytiga
become effective. Started Lupron 35 days ago and
zytiga
15 days ago. My PSA before starting treatment was 8.4. Lab now reports PSA of 4.2. I keep reading about people with fractional PSA’s, but mine sure isn’t.

Generic Zytiga vs. Zytiga
I've recently been put on generic
Zytiga
only into it a few weeks but I've noticed since the switch it seems to be doing a job on my stomach which the real
Zytiga
never did. I don't know if it is in my head or not but definitely in my stomach.

Xgeva shots
My husband has extensive metastatic cancer and is being treated with
zytiga
and prednisone . He is getting xgeva shots once in awhile as They won’t prolong life but may help prevent breakage. Should I try to be more vigilant about getting these shots monthly.

Scrotum Itch
Started Casodex, Lupron,
Zytiga
, Xgeva, Prednisone. In about a month, developed scrotum itch, which isn't getting better. At first thought it was associated with night sweats. But jock itch ointments and powder are no help.

Resuming the PC Journey
I'm currently on dicalutimide and Lupron (PSA dropped from 5.9 to 2.4) and scheduled for a return visit with my oncologist on Friday to discuss
Zytiga
(and prednisone?). I have a checkered history with prednisone -- anger issue.
