Editor’s Pick: After a 10x PSA rise on Pluvicto, it’s time for new therapy — and a new genetic test (bn)
Topics Discussed
Poised to start ADT, de novo Floridian has two good choices for GU medonc; with PSA of 700 and a cancer “that’s really gotten out of hand,” he starts chemo but it sends him to the ICU; tenfold rise in PSA puts an end to his Pluvicto treatment — he needs a fresh genetic test before changing course; a go-ahead for spot therapy, so he’s headed to a free NYC hotel room; wheeze raises concern about his lung mets, but multiple tests find nothing; switching from treadmill to recumbent bike, max heart rate sags; back pain woes on Provenge; recurrence after prostatectomy but PSMA PET is giving no guidance; don’t pick a hospital, pick a doctor — and we like Dr. E; medoncs won’t talk with him because he’s not metastatic, so choose a great radonc for now.
