Thank you for that information. We’ll discuss with my husband‘s oncologist next week. The main concern is the rise in the PSA. Dana Farber was not happy until he went down to 0.02. (If I’m printing that correctly). It is now at 0.01. They told him the chance of spreading at a higher number, was likely. He was diagnosed on Valentine’s Day, of this year, 2025, been on the medication’s as of 1 March.

0.01 is very good. That would be a result of "undetectable" on a normal PSA screening test (which typically doesn't go below 0.1), and is near the limit of what even the ultrasensitive PSA test can detect.
