Can anyone share their experience with Nubeqa (darolutamide)?
my husband will start Ubeqa this week. I would like to know others experiences.

It works. Psa last August was 25. It is now undetectable!

2 ReactionsIn combination with Orgovyx, Nubeqa at half dose (one 300mg a day instead of 2x daily) seems to have reduced PSA to undetectable. I confessed to my doctor that I reduced the dosage and he told me to carry on. It’s difficult to asses the side effects when taken in combination, but it’s said it’s the ADT that is “killing” some of us with fatigue.

2 ReactionsHello,
Nubeqa alone, has not worked for my spouse. He stopped Orgovyx due to causing high bp and heart issues. His breasts are very sore, sometimes even clothing rubbing against skin is bothersome and his energy levels are low, but that has been with Orgovyx and Lupron as well. He's 59, diagnosed with mets at 51.
i am on Nubeqa and Orgovyx ( and proton radiation) at the moment.
I have the nuisance hot flashes and some fatigue which i push through.
Over all, I’m doing ok with the meds.
@cencalwife I was lucky to have treatment by a European GU Oncologist who performed a extended pelvic direction. During that procedure, he advised me that a short, single course of radiation would prevent some of the issues with male breast tissue, mainly being painful growths. It worked, and I have a friend back here in the states who did not have the single dose of radiation and they did surgery to remove painful growths. Just some thoughts from my experiences, I was diagnosed at 49, I am on Nubeqa and I have the usual hormonal issues, weight gain, I get emotional and the hot flashes, oh yeah, fun times!
