Welcome, @jwbaxter32. It sounds like you are currently managing stage 4 prostate cancer. If I'm reading your message correctly, you were recently prescribed by your oncologist to add enzalutamide (Xtandi) to the maintenance therapy of leuprolide (Lupron). However Xtandi was discontinued because it was causing challenging side effects.

Do I have that right so far?

What treatment is your oncologist suggesting as a next step? How are you doing?

@colleenyoung
I have looked into this and Xtandi has not been discontinued. I know somebody was just prescribed it yesterday.

The search of the web confirms it has not been discontinued.

I suspect you’re thinking of a different drug.
