I think one would need more info like number of cores positive and % in positive cores. Was biopsy random or MRI guided? Can you tell us?

Just a single core MRI guided biopsy with less than 20% volume may give you 20 years. I am no expert however. Truth is nobody knows.

Interesting research paper with correlation between PSA, GGG and chances of metastasis here:

Can't post link but google "Prediction of metastatic prostate cancer by prostate-specific antigen in combination with T stage and Gleason Grade: Nationwide, population-based register study"
