EBRT with or without STAD showed similar 15-year PCSS and OS rates in IRPC patients, with high PSA failure rates observed. Multivariate analysis indicated greater side effects in the STAD group ...
Men with early prostate cancer who choose active therapy rather than active surveillance should unreservedly be offered hypofractionated external-beam radiotherapy (EBRT) for the treatment of ...
Tracking breathing-related prostate movement enables more precise delivery of radiation, study finds. BOSTON—Real-time positional tracking of the prostate could improve external beam radiation ...
An aggressive approach to the treatment of prostate cancer in patients with Gleason scores of 9 or 10 appears to pay important clinical dividends compared to less intense regimens, according to the ...
In a study, extremely dose-escalated radiotherapy combined with androgen deprivation therapy offered the best cancer-specific survival among men with Gleason 9-10 prostate cancer. External beam ...
Researchers involved in the phase II NRG Oncology RTOG 0526 trial studying low dose rate (LDR) prostate brachytherapy (BT) following local recurrence (LR) after external beam radiotherapy (EBRT) for ...
Radiation therapy (also called radiotherapy) uses high-energy beams or subatomic particles to damage the DNA inside prostate cancer cells. After enough damage, the cells cannot multiply, and they die.
