Yes, that's Pluvicto. My father was supposed to get it, but chemo killed him and in my country you have to get chemo before Pluvicto. You need to do a PSMA PET scan to see if you're even a candidate for it. It's gonna show all your mets, and there will be a score attached to them, so you need score 3 for all or most of them to get the treatment. I've heard good things about it, but i couldn't tell you first hand. It's supposed to be safer then chemo and can be repeated when PSA goes up again, but doesn't stop working the second time around like chemo.

Thank you.
Sorry your father did not get to receive this treatment.
My husband is doing chemo therapy now.
