Just completed Pluvicto treatment #3 today at Mayo, and received results of a new PSMA Pet scan from yesterday (after two treatments). Major findings: several PCa sites have disappeared entirely and all others have diminished dramatically (75% or so) in size and SUV intensity. There is no new cancer evident. My doctor told me that these results are in the top 5% of patients they’ve treated with Pluvicto. Question in my mind now is whether there is PSMA negative cancer lurking, but the doctors here think not. To be sure, they will do a Choline-11 Pet scan after I’ve finished all of my treatments in December. BTW, no real side effects so far. Perhaps a little fatigue, but that’s been it. Fingers crossed that continues. I will get another PSMA Pet scan before my fifth treatment in November and I will provide another update then. I hope that these results bring some hope to people who are embarking on Pluvicto treatments. Happy to hear any observations, suggestions or questions you might have.
