PSA-Nadir vs Testosterone-Nadir

These plots show the linear relationship between median PSA-Nadir and median Testosterone-Nadir, pointing towards the Origin (i.e., 0 PSA-Nadir at 0 T-Nadir.). N= 38 men. The upper to graphs compare median PSA-nadir and median T-Nadir for Non-CRPC and CPRC groups (CPRC = Castrate Resistant Prostate Cancer).

Non-CRPC men have roughly about 1/2 the median PSA-Nadir and 1/2 the median T-nadir values compared to CRPC men, which makes sense because non-CRPC men are still hormone sensitive to ADT and, hence, have lower amounts of prostate cancer in their bodies.
