Do you care to share what his "journey" was? and when he was diagnosed and what stage?
It's quite a downer to hear this, after reading that Pluvicto is a wonder drug for PC!

As many others have said on this forum, Pluvicto is not a wonder drug for prostate cancer. Data and experience to date say that it is works well for about a third of the patients who have treatment, produces mediocre results for about a third of the men, and doesn't work at all for the other third. Unfortunately, my husband is in the second third of patients, though I know of other men who have had very good results. The key is to go into Pluvicto treatments with realistic expectations, and gratitude for it being a treatment option for Stage 4 prostate cancer.

He is on his 4th year of treatment. He started Pluvicto in late March of 2024 finished in September of 24. He had no further treatment until next month starting xofigo.
