I started out with a prosectomy, followed by radiation,
followed by provenge treatment. From there I had taxotere chemotherapy, lupron shots twice a year. Next was Abirateone acetate and prednisone which kept me in remission for almost 4 years. After that stopped working, they gave me Xtandi. That only lasted 3 months. Then they gave me 13 rounds of Jevtana. Pluvicto came available and that failed after 3 rounds because it made my PSA rise rapidly in my opinion. They put me back on Jevtana now, with 5 rounds of carboplatin with it. I'm on Jevtana alone again, every 3 weeks. This is where I stand now. My PSA rose from 1.56 to 20.83 after using Pluvicto, which failed. My PSA is now 19.33 after 5 rounds of Jevtana. As long as it works, they have me approved for that for a year.
