Just completed SBRT yesterday for Gleason 9, Grade 4 localized disease. I was on AS for 4 years with Gleason 3+4 and low Oncotype score when a follow up biopsy in July this year showed disease progression. I was told 12-18 mos ADT at initial RO consultation. Recent data (within the last 5 years) endorses disease free survival and mortality equivalent whether RT or RARP are the approach. I am counting on that!

(My Prostox test showed low risk for 5-high dose SBRT treatment protocol)

Thanks. SBRT is sounding the most "attractive" to me also. I'm still waiting to get my prostox ordered as both my RO and urologist are on vacation.
