Great to hear you are undetectable. When you have a lot of bone mets they can use radium 223 to try and eliminate them. There is also Pluvicto which in some people can dramatically eliminate mets all over the body.

So,,,,,if your PSA starts rising you have those two options to extend life.

Radium 223 is unfortunately only approved for Castrate Resistant Prostate Cancer. Same with Pluvicto. Although, I believe there is a study going on in Australia that is giving Pluvicto as an up front treatment with ADT and an ARSI instead of chemo.

For those of us with high volume bone mets, it is beyond me why insurance does not allow a short coarse of clean up treatment with Radium 223 to wipe out the bone mets.
