I cannot believe these doctors are claim this. My husband was 58 when he was diagnosed after two high PSA test. He was a Gleason 10 in all 12 samples, and it had already metastasized to the bones. He underwent RT and several rounds of chemo, but passed away 18 months after first PSA. It came out of nowhere and had no symptoms. It's rare, but becoming more common. They should know better.
What I want to know is what Biden's baseline T is. At his age, it has to be extremely low already. Frankly, he's a candidate for bilateral orchiectomy (he really doesn't need them anymore), but the surgery would be intense and given his health status, probably too extreme. ADT, however, messes with so many pathways it will probably accelerate his degradation. Since they are going palliative for the mets, that may be all that they do.
My husband has advanced prostate cancer that spread to bones and he had radiation therapy and ADT. Why is the article saying he isn’t a candidate for chemo or radiation. He’s not a candidate for surgery.

Another good one Howie!
