Ian Davis Dr. Andrew Loblaw Daniel E Spratt Chris Parker Shankar Siva Amar Kishan Does anyone else wonder whether patient compliance (for understandable reasons) may confuse therapy duration/effect?
Agree Ian Davis and now that relugolix is now in 🇨🇦 we now struggle with optimal duration of ADT.
If giving 4mo ADT for unfav int risk or 8mo for IAB do we give the same duration of relugolix or 50% longer?
