Editor's Pick: Gleason 10 de novo going strong 9 years later; sons need baseline PSAs starting at age 35 (bn)
Topics Discussed
De novo Gleason 10 got up-front triplet therapy -- and his PSA is still low 9 years later; make sure your mutations are right for Pluvicto; Gemtesa helped him manage a full bladder for radiation; cellulitis is not uncommon in radiation therapy, bleach baths may help; Mark Finn's long, complex journey to hospice -- when is it time to throw in the towel?; SBRT has replaced brachytherapy for many radoncs; there's not just one kind of rectal spacer for radiation -- there are three; important to get the right team, focused on genitourinary care, for radiation; "exercise enthusiastically -- kills hot flashes -- my personal experience"; PSA undetectable -- why all these scans?; thumbs down on Walter Reed for prostatectomies; if you have kids, have them get a baseline PSA at age 35; a son's PSA of 2.7 at age 39 is "definitely not normal" and an MRI is in the works; entrolled in a trial targeting SPOP mutation -- side effects aren't bad, but also no PSA improvement.

somewhat related: I've read that if the PSA is below .5 at 50 years old, you will not die of prostate cancer
