Yes, that's true — Erleada (Apalutamide) lists a prolonged QT interval as one of its possible side effects. As I mentioned in a different thread, I had a full cardio stress workup at the university heart institute, and my heart is tolerating it well so far.

Given that my remaining life expectancy at this point would likely have been 2–4 years without Erleada (they originally told me 5–7 years. and I'm almost 3 years into that), I'm *very* willing to take the small extra risk of future heart problems in exchange for what is now looking like many, many more years of high-quality life.

Obviously, if my heart were already seriously damaged, the equation might change.
