Posted by donnelson @donnelson, May 4, 2018

Zytiga is the newest prostate cancer medicine with a price tag of $10-11,000 per month. Has anyone been on it?

My husband was diagnosed in 2005 at age 58 and has been Stage 4 for many years. He started Zytiga in January 2020 and it kept the cancer in remission for three years. After some spot radiation and ablation, he starts Pluvicto treatments later this month.

Thank you, Colleen, for this list of discussions specifically related to Pluvicto. I will definitely look at them, as my husband has his first treatment in four days. I have been reading and responding to discussions on a couple of other topics where I thought I could say something useful, but I appreciate your pointing me to these more focused discussions because I had not seen all of them.
