here is another similar labcorp test https://www.labcorp.com/tests/483555/vistaseq-prostate-panel

If your focus is on inherited genetic risk factors, the Color gene test is likely more complete. If you are seeking tumor-specific genetic profiling or somatic mutations relevant to prostate cancer management, Labcorp #481220 might be more comprehensive.

Gary Martin and Mods – the PEACE-1 trial has a group of patients receiving RT added to the systemic triple therapy (ADT + Docetaxel + Abiraterone). The full results regarding the role of RT in this specific quadruplet combination are “highly anticipated.”

PSMA test was not available when my PSA rose after salvage radiation, if it was I would have held off Lupron
