Thank you for the information. I was not aware of the subtleties related to having both cribiform and intraductal. I am curious to learn more. And I am getting ready to make a post about seeking a second opinion on my situatuin and treatment plan. I am in Seattle and go to the Fred Hutch Cancer Center, generally regarded as the best in the Seattle area. However, after seeing many more posts by others and you relating to their ADT treatment plans being multiple years makes me think I may be at some risk. My GU oncologist thinks I should do nine months of ADT, then go on an ADT holiday until the PSA numbers start to rise. While I enjoy being freed from the effects of ADT. I'll take the near term nuisance of ADT to get more years above ground.
Also the clinical trial is only following my second round of ADT with Lupron, Abiaterone and a round of radiation. It does not explore any new treatment options.

UCSF did a conference on cribriform and intraductal. They actually said that if you had intraductal There was a high percentage chance you also had cribriform. I found this particular one hour conference to be really informative. Here’s a link to it so you can listen to it yourself.

They didn’t discuss in depth what treatment would be useful if someone had both, A search of the Internet’s AI products can give you an idea of what the current state of the medical community is on this problem.
