@brianjarvis Am I reading the first study correctly that six months of ADT was a waste of time and caused unnecessary side effects for no benefit?

@scottbeammeup If by “intermediate” Gleason score he means 7(3+4), then I would expect no difference. (NCCN guidelines don’t recommend hormone therapy for 3+4.)

However, if by “intermediate” Gleason score they meant 7(4+3), then that would be inconsistent with other studies and with NCCN guidelines.

He never mentions what “intermediate” he’s referring to - favorable or unfavorable. So, there’s no way to know……
