Median Life Expectancy

My Oncologist provided some eye opening stats on Median Life Expectancy for men with Stage IV, metastasized (to a major organ i.e. lungs), aggressive, Gleason 8 prostate cancer.  They are as follows:

No Treatment – 12-18 months

Hormone Therapy only – 32 months


HT and chemo – 49 months
