After 5 sessions of Docetaxel and then 4 of Cabazitaxel oncologist Sain they don't appear to be working so stopped them. Any ideas what could be next?

  • Hello  

    I am so sorry the Chemotherapy hasn't worked. It would help us to help you if you filled in your profile so we can see what treatments you have already had - but here's a few ideas;

    * 2nd generation Hormone Therapy - Abiraterone, Enzalutamide, Darolutamide or Apalutamide.

    * Radiotherapy or Radium 223.

    * Have you checked out any available clinical trials?

    i hope the above helps.

    Do let us know how you get on.

    Best wishes - Brian.
