Diagnosed in July of 2022 at age 73. Stage 4 with mets to lymph nodes and pelvic bone. ADT started, then IMRT with SBRT to the pelvic bone lesion. Degarelix and Abiraterone w/ prednisone for 2.5 years (stopped May 2025). PSA remains undetectable. PSMA-Pet and MRI last month showed all clear. I was sorely depressed by the statistics I read when diagnosed (30% at 5 years) but my Mayo Urologist assured me that those statistics are based on historical data and new treatments will significantly improve those numbers when newer studies are completed. 🙂
