I have been following this group for about a year! Thank you for all the information. I don’t have my husband pathology report in front of me! I do know that we have a Gleason 8 and 11/12 cores positive for cancer. Psa was 6.7

Prostate cancer escaped his capsule to some lymph nodes I believe 2 has not spread to bones or other organs! Began adt in feb 22 then whole pelvic radiation in may of 22. 39 sessions . Zytiga started 6 weeks ago and still on adt! PCA continues to go down!

Looking for the best medical oncologist in Minnesota! Thank you

At UMinn, there is Charles Ryan or Emmanuel Antonarakis. At Mayo, Oliver Sartor has just started there.

I use Dr Eugene Kwon at Mayo. I found Mayo Clinic to be more aggressive in treating my PC than Cleveland Clinic.

I went the academia and research route at a major medical school in 2004 and have not looked back. Good luck.
