Would you offer RT to a patient who had a RP showing pT3b pN1 Gleason 9 prostate cancer with elevated post-op PSA?

Would it matter if their PET axumin was negative?

Answer from: Radiation Oncologist at Academic Institution

If Axumin PET is negative for metastatic sites (prostatic Bed or Pelvic Nodes are excluded) Or even totally negative, I would treat.

Answer from: Radiation Oncologist at Community Practice

I would favor pet scan if meets threshold based on psa and plan treatment accordingly
