But they have been pushing 24 month ADT for a long time now in cancer guidelines and it seems for little to show in overall survival rates but a lot to show in side effects affecting the quality of life of all those put on it. I think this is why we are seeing so many oncologists now pushing shorter durations of ADT even if counter to guideline recommendations

@wheel1 My MO prescribed two years of ADT, but at about one year we discussed more recent studies and dialed back to 18 months. I have two weeks left.
