I notice some of the studies and literature she referenced was from 2016 I wonder if there have been any updates since. I have to choose which modality of radiation I want, and One Dr (from BC Cancer as well) suggested SABR and ADT I am waiting to hear back from Kelowna about HDR Brachy.
One particular aspect of the many studies comparing mortality rates (or, in the context of the screening controversy, re minute 14:29) is, of those men with PCa who died not from PCa, in what percentage was their life prolonged by systemic ADT, and in what fashion was the ADT a contributor to their death. For instance, an elderly man whose metastatic PCa is controlled by ADT, is hit by a bus due to cognitive impairment or, is immobilized due to hip fracture, falls into depression and commits suicide...It would seem that those whose death is attributed to a SE of ADT should be counted as dying from PCa.
