My journey with Stage 4 Mets PSA continues
After zytiga failed tried
Xtandi
and it too failed, PSA continued to climb. After the first chemo treatment with taxotere , my MO said to expect a spike by the time the next treatment was due in 3 weeks. It did spike to 137 and today I am happy to report that the PSA dropped to 117.

Psa down on no intervention
We are awaiting trial approval for
Xtandi
and my dad’s psa went down from 12 to 5. He’s been off of Zytiga for a month. Is this unusual? Labs are good. No new spots. Two very small spots on lung that they don’t believe has anything to do with prostate cancer.

Zytiga failed, starting Xtandi. What to expect for my dad.
We got the news that Zytiga is failing and my dad is going to be switched to
Xtandi
. My dad has been feeling amazing and I’m so scared that the
Xtandi
wll change that. He was diagnosed with Stage IV, bone mets everywhere, Gleason 10, PSA 64 in November 2017.

I am a newbie on this site...
The course of treatment currently being discussed is Provenge immunotherapy more than likely followed by
Xtandi
or Zytiga. The fact that the cancer had metastasized kind of took the wind out of my sails.

Plan of attack after Chemo
Forum says a restart of
XTANDI
may be possible. 5. Somebody in the forum suggested some anti cancer vitamins but I may not have much time to try this before I have to go back to traditional treatments. Dont know what other treatments are out there so I hope the Forum may have some ideas.

New Article on Early Use of Xtandi
Short term study (3 years) on the early use of

Zytiga over Xtandi
As I understand Zytiga and
Xtandi
have similar efficacy. However, side effects for
Xtandi
seem less severe. I notice lots of people on Zytiga but not
Xtandi
. Does anyone know why Zytiga seems to be prescribed more?

How do you take your Xtandi?
The bottle says 4 pills once a day but my husbands doctor said it was fine to take two/ twice a day. How do most take it?

Reflection on having 4TH STAGE PC
I am currently on Lupron,
Xtandi
and Pembro. I find myself not getting things done like I use to in the yard and in the house. I think my priority has shifted to doctor appts, treatment appts, and doing what I can do without wearing myself out.

The in between
His oncologist decided because to enter him into a clinical trial involving
Xtandi
. He was ordered to stop prednisone and Zytiga. The clinicians in the trial do not have him scheduled to begin until mid August.

Calcium intake
Started Xgeva and
Xtandi
6 months ago. I have taken extra calcium the entire time with fortified antacids but never knew how to take until 6 months ago my onco suggested I take 1,500 mg of calcium a day which I do with fortified antacids, OJ and almond milk.

Cholesterol biosynthesis & Enzalutamide resistance
Looks like Simvastatin might prolong the effectiveness of
Xtandi
. Some will know that I favor the use of statins to shut off certain escape paths in therapies that involve the androgen receptor axis.

Xtandi stomach pain
It was decided to start
Xtandi
because Cancer showed definite signs of Androgen resistance mutation. I was able to receive patient assistance for the incredible cost of
Xtandi
.

Xtandi is approved for men with either metastatic or non-metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer
The FDA ruling expands
XTANDI
use in men with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC), in addition for men with non-metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer.
XTANDI
is now the first and only oral medication FDA-approved for both non-metastatic and metastatic CRPC.

Xtandi and alcohol
I have been taking
Xtandi
for over six months. It has reduced my psa from 3.4 to 0.19. I exercise most days so the effects are limited, however my tolerance to alcohol has diminished. I'm only talking about a few beers two or three times a week after playing walking football.
