prostate cancer support group meeting also has its own discussion. The search feature brings it up. I posted it but I see now I should update it every day before the meeting so it shows up. At the top of this page under the heading, is the next date and time of the meeting. See you next month.

Yes. The zoom link works great.

Hi, I am new to the support group. I just started Pluvicto treatment for metastatic prostate cancer and my physician has continued me on Nubeqa and Orgovyx. I am still sensitive to ADT. The measure of success for Pluvicto is the rise or fall of PSA in our protocol. Seems to me that it would be more reasonable to be off of ADT during Pluvicto in order to measure it's effectiveness. Has anyone had that form of treatment?
