Your thoughts on next course of action
PSA
eventually started rising and next PSMA showed a single site uptake in a retroperitoneal LN. Passed on ADT due to side effects and opted for SBRT MDT to his LN. Scans showed it was successful.
PSA
dropped and has now shown a small rise. Latest PSMA shows 3 nodes with uptake.

Switching from Abi to Enza?
It has nicely brought down his
PSA
from 500 to less than 1 and kept it steadily less than 1 since the past one year. He, of course, takes Lupron alongside. However, Abiraterone has resulted in some side effects, the major one being increase in blood sugar levels.

Enzalutamide & ARCHES trial.
More from ASCO 2023 [1]: “We found in ARCHES that in the men who developed radiographic progression while on ADT-enzalutamide [Xtandi], two thirds of these patients, when they had radiographic progression, did not meet
PSA
progression criteria, and one third didn't have any rise at all in their

My initial Pluvicto response
So far: Aug 16:
PSA
99.7 Aug 21: Pluvicto #1 Sep 11:
PSA
106 Sep 28:
PSA
91.8 So it appears to be working. Side effects: • A little tired, but that was offset by a week of steroids as was any "rebound pain" from extensive mets in my pelvis and spine.

Treatment Question
Overall it seems like a good report, however I am still concerned about his rising
PSA
. When I asked his MO about this, she basically said we wait until it reaches about 10 before becoming concerned as it is most likely the residual lesions producing the

Just joined the club no one wants to be a member of in April 2023 - can Gleason 9 be cured ?
The highest my
PSA
has ever been was 5.48 in December 2022 and it dropped to .09 with Testosterone of 14 in August two months after a shot of Eligard and 3 months of Casodex. Since then I have had 48 seeds planted via Brachytherapy and I am about to start EBRT.

Pet scan vs CT scan
Hi fellow warriors, I've just had a phone appointment with my Oncologist my
PSA
is 0.7 and started to go up but not high enough to warrant having a Scan at the moment.My problem is she doesn't think she will be able to put me forward for a Pet scan as I have already had a couple in the past and with

Tests in regard to treatment
Hi Folks, After RP ~6 months ago with persistent
PSA
> .15, I've begun ADT using Orgovyx, and salvage pelvic RT. When should I expect that my RO will order testing, and for what? For example blood tests for
PSA
& testosterone.

Should I end active surveillance and treat?
I had the
PSA
taken again on September 6 and it is 5.89 which is actually lower than the 6.15 that came back on February 23, 2023. Both the surgeon and the radiologist where I go are saying I could stay on AS or get treated.
