For the present This drug is only approved for NON metastatic Pca. I had a discussion with my research doctor this week on this drug. It might take about 2 years for darolutamide to be approved for metastatic Pca

Unfortunately, that's the case. Sorry if my abbreviation of nmPca wasn't clear.

No worries. I misread the headline originally and got so excited that I was in tears....only to realize it wasn't yet available for mPCa. :(

You just got me thinking. Must be a black market in these drugs. My bad. A yellow market. No China or pee pun intended.
