There is a third approach for oligo metastatic disease. Treat the primary tumor with surgery or radiation, triple therapy (Darolutamise, Lupron and chemo) to systemically treat any micro metastatic disease and also radiate the few nodal or bony metastases with intent to kill all visible macro disease.

Thanks for sharing that!

From what I understand, chemo for oligometastatic PCa that's still castrate-sensitive remains controversial, though it's getting more mainstream as a proactive treatment for castrate-resistant and/or high-volume metastatic cancer.

It will be interesting watching how best practices change over the next few years.
