Experiences with

Pylarify

But Pylarify is more widely available. Insurance companies and Medicare may still deny Pluvicto if there is only a Pylarify scan, but they will probably reverse their decision with the new NCCN guideline. Novartis is still 6 weeks off from supplying Pluvicto.

and lengthy HT vacations, assorted scans (C11, then GA-68 PSMA, upcoming Pylarify-PSMA) followed by SBRT to the few hot nodes uncovered, followed by much decreased PSAs...then slowly rising PSAs, lather rinse repeat.

I am now scheduled to do the Pylarify PSMA late next month. My question: is the procedure identical to the other scans (ie: inject me with the stuff and then do the scans?) If different, how so?

They offer the F18 PSMA, is the Pylarify better, or does it really make any diffidence. ET

If PSA rises, we do a Pylarify PSA scan possibly followed by HT and then SBRT. Is the aforementioned kind of dental work a bad idea given that scenario? Of course, if dental issues (pain) arise, my hand is forced. Anyone have an implant for one tooth? Is it worth it? I am 76 years old. Mel

There is an intense focus of pylarify activity in the anterior left prostate gland corresponding to MRI finding and concerning for prostate malignancy. 2. There are nonspecific left pelvic lymph nodes with subtle pylarify uptake which are uncertain to be metastatic or benign.

If significant PSA rise, will do the Pylarify-PSMA sczn at U So, thanks for reading my long-winded background summary. My simple question: We KNOW that post-primary radiation tx. one expects a bounce, maybe after 18-24 months. So what about SBRT in the post- curative bullets SBRT setting?

Will do pylarify PSMA scan at UMICH next month. My questions: Say my PSA is about 2-2.30. 1)What are they likely to find at this level (is there even an answer?) 2) Suppose they find a few lesions in the bone. Do they also do SBRT to obliterate those spots like they did in my ext. lymph nodes.

V.A gave me a Pylarify scan and there was 1 hot spot on a pelvic lymph node . i had 3 sessions of SBRT to the lymph-node then 25 sessions if IMRT , tomotherapy to my pelvic area . So from PSA 4.19 on Dec 09 to 2.02, 1.15 , 0.4 , 0.27 , 0.22 , 0.4, 0.27 , 0.22 , 0.04 , and 0.03 as of last week .

Last week I had the Pylarify scan (now SOC) and the lesion on T9 lit up like crazy. It has doubled in size. Also noted is a 2cm mass on my right kidney, but they do not seem to be overly concerned about that.

Went to V.A. for Pylarify scan that found 1 node in pelvic area , oligometatastic . I had 3 sessions of SBRT to that node then 25 sessions of IMTR , Tomotherapy . All radiation was done at Illinois Cyberknife , Dr. Erica Hirsch , RO.

What this means for patients, is that those who may already have the Pylarify PET scan will be unable to use it to qualify for Pluvicto. They will have to get a new PET scan. It's too bad because Pylarify is a more sensitive PET indicator.

PSA was slowly increasing and in December 2021, PSA was 0.37, testosterone 25.7 My doctor ordered the latest diagnostic test that utilizes PYLARIFY to flag the location of prostate cancer cells.

Scheduled for a PSMA Pylarify PET scan on Tuesday which should show little activity if previous 3 Lu177 treatments worked against PSMA cancer cells. Also, want to get an updated blood biopsy to see if anything has changed since the one done last October.

I was contacted today by a man that needs info on where G68 PSMA and Pylarify scans are available in CA. If someone has current info on CA locations please let me know. Also, this man has Medicare with a United Healthcare supplement.

I am nearing the end of my 20 month vacation as my PSA has risen to about 0.7 now, and I had a Pylarify scan showing one lesion so I remain oligometastatic.

Hi all, Hope your week's off to a strong start. Anyone have a view on whether a C-11 scan will be useful in addition to a PSMA PET? My recurrent PSA is low ~0.7. One of my doctors suggested I get both to better assess if/where there may be local activity. Everything suggests PSMA PET is superior,

All recommend another set of scans asap given PSA is likely approaching 1.0 and then spot treatment as available in addition to the above (earlier Axumin didn't detect anything at PSA 0.35), including Choline and PSMA PET Pylarify F-18.
