Pre-radiotherapy PSA level as a predictor.
The recent publication on “pre‐radiotherapy PSA level as a predictor” is very interesting. Tsan et al., con‐ cluded that “in patients with increasing prostate‐specific antigen (PSA) levels following radical prostatectomy (RP), local radiotherapy (RT) should be administered prior to biochemical failure (PSA ≥ 0.2) to ensure good biochemical progression ‐ free survival (bPFS).” It seems that the ...
متن کاملDosimetric comparison of three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy in salvage radiotherapy for PSA relapse after radical prostatectomy.
The purpose of this study is to compare three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy (3D-CRT) plans in a setting of salvage radiotherapy after radical prostatectomy (RP) and to simulate whether dose escalation is possible with the most adequate 3D-CRT technique. This study included consecutive 10 patients underwent salvage radiotherapy (RT) for biochemical relapse of prostate cancer after RP. Norma...
متن کاملPre-radiotherapy PSA level as a predictor for biochemical control in prostate cancer patients receiving radiotherapy after radical prostatectomy.
BACKGROUND To report the outcome of patients receiving radiotherapy (RT) after radical prostatectomy (RP). METHODS Between May 2001 and December 2008, 53 consecutive cases of prostate adenocarcinoma treated with RP and RT were reviewed. RESULTS A total of 49 patients were eligible for this study. After a median follow-up of 53 months, the 4-year overall survival (OS) and biochemical progres...
متن کاملKaryotypic change between diagnosis and relapse as a predictor of salvage therapy outcome in AML patients
BACKGROUND Only a few patients who experience AML relapse derive lasting benefit from re-induction therapy. The utility of reassessing the disease karyotype at relapse is unclear. The main goals of this study were to identify prognostic factors for AML relapse and to determine the prognostic utility of karyotypic change between diagnosis and relapse as a variable for predicting response to salv...
متن کاملFree PSA as a Predictor of Prostate Cancer
Clinically diagnosed Prostate cancer is suspected due to raised PSA and abnormal DRE. DRE detected prostate cancer is often advanced and not amenable to curative treatment. The use of PSA as a serum marker has revolutionized PCa diagnosis. PSA is specific to the gland but not specific to cancer, therefore, it may be elevated in benign prostatic hypertrophy (BPH), prostatitis and other nonmalign...
