It is encouraging that the SOC opinions about estrogen patches for ADT, and the use of testosterone are changing. I was diagnosed just over 3 years ago so I wasn't following PCa trials and therapies before 2018. However, it seems that some progress is being made. Is this an accurate statement or wishful thinking?

The latest publication from the Stampede Patch arm is this:
ascopost.com/issues/april-2...
So they have no overall survival data yet. On the other hand, who would try to get an FDA approval to use patches for ADT?
The Metformin arm is expected to report results in 2024.

Thanks. If you have the data, you could always self-direct if you want. This is what I did for estrogen patch ADT and also high testosterone and BAT. If you are in the states you can get the meds.
