    I can agree as to the hospital sling I received last time, for my other shoulder surgery. Which was why I was glad to hear your recommendation of a better one, prior to my upcoming surgery. Wish I didn’t need the surgery, but old age & past injuries, are catching up with me.

    JAMA Oncol. 2019, 5, 856-863. In the first prospective trial of 68Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT for BRPC, which included 635 patients, detection rates were 38% for PSA levels of < 1.0 ng/mL (n = 79), 84% for 1.0 to 2.0 (n=89), 86% for 2.0 to 5.0 (n=158), and 94% for >5.0. (BRPC = Bio-Recurrent PC)

    a meta-observation is that most therapies that are initially only for end stage move earlier in treatment where their use there improves things.  improves at least in the CSS sense, not necessarily in the OS sense

    My Calendar has the Ancan Seattle dinner scheduled for Sunday but I don’t have any details.

  • rick davis sent: 4:51 PM

    Stand by as I said.

  • Steve Schuler (Seattle) sent: 4:53 PM

    I’ve got to drop, but I will “stand by” to hear about Sunday. I will be at the conference Saturday, probably at Fred Hutch which I assume must be a video screen but in the FH building… That way I get a free sandwich I think :^)

  • RJ Smith (Seattle) sent: 4:54 PM
