Thanks so much, smc24. My husband's medical oncologist is at Simon in Indianapolis, though my husband chose to have his Pluvicto treatments at Mayo Rochester instead, over my objections. (I objected because we live about an hour from Simon and ten-plus hours by car from Rochester.) My husband just finished his sixth Pluvicto on August 14, whereas you finished what is now known as Pluvicto in the original clinical trial years ago, and I suppose that might make a difference in whether my husband would be considered for another round any time soon. He has a scan on September 25 to show how effective Pluvicto has been against his many metastases.

My first round costs were covered by the pharmaceutical company in the trial. No insurance involved. Now. Medicare and my supplemental insurer will pay.
The two year period between the end of the first round and the start of the repeat treatments was a definate factor in my medical staff's decision to move forward with this treatment. FYI, I had ARC targeted beam radiation on a few problematic tumors this spring prior to this decision. It helped, but just kicked the can down the road a little more.
Stay in touch.
