I've been through Pluvicto and am in the process of repeating the treatments. The guidelines say stay 3 feet or more away for the first 3 days, for extended periods of time. My recommendation is to have him sit in the back on the passenger side, opposite the driver . Moisture, when exhaled will be radioactive (as is urine, sweat, etc). Keep the heater/air conditioning FAN on medium or higher. This will bring in the most outside air, maintaing positive pressure inside the car, which forces the air out through the louvers in the back (trunk). DO NOT use the recirculation setting. You want all fresh outside air. Depending on the weather, a partially open window would be helpful to get rid of the contaminated air.
While in the hospital, watch the medical staff. It's not as scary as you might think, but definitely follow the guidelines.
Sort of. I was one of the original Novartis Pharmaceutical clinical trial patients in 2021-22. Costs were paid by Novartis and the University of Chicago. When the cancer started to advance again, in early 2024, my medical team at Simon Cancer Center in Indianapolis applied to Medicare and my supplemental insurer, Aetna for coverage. They agreed. The view it as their first (and only) coverage. I have completed 4 of the repeat 6 treatments. In summary, Medicare will only cover Pluvicto for one round of the approved 6 treatments. My case is extremely unique.

@smc24 Inquiring if there’s any chance you are on Medicare & they approved another 6 repeating treatments
