I’ve had my cancer reoccur four times. I had a metastasis on my spine zapped about three years ago. I am on Orgovyx and Darolutamide They have been undetectable for 31 months after 16 years of PC. So the answer is the drugs probably work for exactly what your husband has. You can discuss this with your doctor and see what they think. What they’re doing now is working. Maybe you don’t need to change it. The thing is if he does get off ADT at some point, his testosterone will come back quicker with Orgovyx than with Lupron. That will get him feeling better sooner. So many possibilities.

@jeffmarc Thank you so much for the information I will discuss this with his doctor. I have to say though that the Lupron was supposed to prevent any further cancer it appears it didn’t since it has spread? But at least he didn’t have any side effects.We wouldn’t have known if I had not asked for a new pet scan. It’s exhausting being so proactive all the time.
Excuse my ignorance but what is PC? Chemo?
