I completed a trial study last year at Dana Farber. A total of 6 infusions. At first I had a very good response but for me short lived. PSA slowly rising. Moved on to BAT, responding well.

I am currently going through the LU177 Treatments. Started off with a PSA of 305, then dropped to 240, then 160 before session 3, and finally to 157 before session 4. So not much of a drop on the last so we'll see what happens next.

Thanks for your reply. You didn’t mention the time period of your treatment, but it seems awe inspiring only after 4 treatments. I’m currently. .04 PSA after RP 18 months. PSMA in February did not show anything. Consensus is that the scan was too soon. I’m an inclined to try LU177 in the future. Good luck with your treatment, I’ll be following you.
