Nubeqa (darolutamide) is approved for use in both non-metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (nmCRPC) and metastatic castration-sensitive prostate cancer (mCSPC). I am neither. Scans showed only showed tumor activity in vas deferens stump, nowhere else. Lupron has worked for me in the past, so can’t we assume ADT will still work? That means I am non -metastatic castration sensitive which is not in either category it is approved for? The Embark study and others did not focus on non-metastatic castration sensitive. Then again Orgovyx is approved for the same two classifications. I can’t help wondering if either one would be ok, rather than the twofer.

I am not nmCRPC but I had no problem getting my doctor to prescribe Darolutamide And I know many other people, whose doctors prescribe it. No problem with insurance paying for it either.

There is some controversy among prostate cancer, people and doctors about the fact that nmCRPC Doesn't) really exist. People who are castrate resistant probably have metastasis that are just too small to be seen yet.

Stick with the two together if you can, It should give you better overall survival.
