What is the prognosis of advanced prostate cancer that has spread?
His disease is not curable and at some point it will continue to spread this is what cancer does. The worst place for it to spread is where is causes the patient the most problems. The bones is by far the most common site for it to spread and may very well appear in other bones later. The brain is a relatively uncommon site. The liver is more common than the brain. There is only so much you can do to prepare. His doctor is in the best position to make an educated guess in regards to time. There are several factors to take into consideration and we have none of this information, but you are most likely talking years, at least one rather than months. Best wishes to you both.
