Your father has metastatic ca prostate.
He requires hormonal therapy first- medical or surgical.
Medical therapy includes 1 injection every 3 to 6 months and caluran 50 mg along with it. Surgical means castration (removing both testis by surgery).
Depending on his response to hormonal therapy he can be planned for further management like chemo, abiraterone etc.
