Multiple Modalities and Remission/Cure

I want to put this link on. It is encouraging to read, from an oncologist at Memorial Sloan Kettering, "new" approaches to treatment of advanced prostate cancer. It makes sense to me.

This is my "Big Year"- Lupron/Zytiga........Radiation (Whole Pelvic).......Chemo(4)....(Immunology?????).

It's the Immunology that is going to be hard to find. Provenge is approved only for castrate resistant guys (for the hormone sensitive it's $100,00!) . I'm going to start looking at clinical trials after Chemo, since it takes about 6 months for the immune system to recover, I feel I have some time.
