After 40 day EBERT radiation AND 2 LOTS OF ZOLADEX in 2021...PSA was going up very slowly but In 2024 went from 1.5 to 2.5 in 3 months....and my psma pet scan showed 5 very small spots 3 in pelvic nodes and one in lower outside bowe area.....But in my 3 yrs after initial treatments .. my specialist kept me on watch and wait but with the sudden PSA 2.5 and testosterone 10 increase Dr Tan has suggested that I go on a trial..with Darolutamide...and a course of ADT therapy. And it's a randomised clinical trial at the ROYAL ADELAIDE HOSPITAL... Where 50% will get a placebo and the other will get the real tablets and also they will do multiple psma pet scans throughout the 2 year trial....or would I be better off getting the real tablets and ADT treatments outside the trial knowing I'm getting the real tablets instead of the sugar pill. I'm 76 and was ist diagnosed as mentioned in my Bio around 4 yrs ago....thankyou for any advice that may help me going forward cheers Richard....(User name millythefox).👍
