When asked, my urologist said my 4+3=7 intermediate risk unfavorable dx treatment recommendation (RO or Surgery) already determined so Decipher test wasn’t necessary. RO said same thing and Urological Oncologist Surgeon said same thing.

Same with me. Urologist determined my Gleason 7 (3+4), PSA 10.6, as unfavorable intermediate (8 of 14 cores positive). Radiation Oncologist said that Decipher was not necessary. I completed my 5-fraction SBRT treatment from April 9 to 21, 2025.
