The Way Forward

If you're a caregiver or have a loved one with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (prostate cancer that is resistant to medical or surgical treatments that lower testosterone and has spread to other parts of the body) you know how difficult this disease has been for him. You've helped your loved one through the ups and downs and have encouraged him to keep fighting. Now you may be wondering what the next step is.

ZYTIGA® Offers Another Option for Treatment

ZYTIGA® works by interrupting the androgen-making process at an important step, thereby reducing the amount of androgen being made.

ZYTIGA® blocks androgen production at three sources: the testes, the adrenal glands, and the tumor itself.

Encourage Your Loved One to Talk to His Doctor About ZYTIGA®

Your loved one may be reluctant to explore another therapy. His previous therapies may have been challenging. He needs to know about a new treatment's effectiveness, possible side effects, and expense. But you can help.
