You should ask about getting Nubeqa (Darolutamide). The side effects are minimal compared to Xtandi And it works quite well. After 15 years and four remissions, I’ve had 20 months in a row with An undetectable PSA. I had Zytiga for 2 1/2 years and was only undetectable for one month.

I know a lot of people that attend the Ancan.Org Weekly online advanced prostate cancer meetings that have switched to Nubeqa And it works quite well for them. Almost all of them have had advanced prostate cancer for a long time and many are only on Nubeqa because it keeps their PSA undetectable and testosterone isn’t a problem, it works around it.

Hopefully your husband’s cancer can be treated successfully.

Thanks, Jeff. After reading comments from you and others, I do plan to ask about Nubeqa/Darolutamide both at Mayo in September and at our next appointment with the GU oncologist in early October. Both appointments are partly for the purpose of discussing next steps, including next medication. Right now, my husband is just on Lupron, which he has been on for many years.
