Hypofractionated radiotherapy for prostate cancer
In the last few years, hypofractionated external beam radiotherapy has gained increasing popularity for prostate cancer treatment, since sufficient evidence exists that prostate cancer has a low α/β ratio, lower than the one of the surrounding organs at risk and thus there is a potential therapeutic benefit of using larger fractionated single doses. Apart from the therapeutic rationale there ar...
متن کاملHypofractionated Radiotherapy for Localized Prostate Cancer: A Challenging Accelerated Hypofractionated Radiotherapy.
Conventionally fractionated (CF) external-beam radiation therapy (1.8-2.0 Gy/fraction) is an established treatment modality for localized prostate cancer. Emerging evidence suggests that the α/β ratio for prostate cancer is as low as 1.5, which has prompted investigators to explore hypofractionated (HF) radiation therapy. We reviewed the current status of hypofractionation and found that the ac...
متن کاملReview of Hypofractionated Radiotherapy for Prostate Cancer
Hypofractionated radiotherapy for prostate cancer has become of increasing interest with the recognition of a potential improvement in therapeutic outcome with treatments delivered in large-sized daily fractions. In addition, hypofractionation offers a reduction in fraction number and produces attractive cost and increased convenience for patients. There is convincing evidence, by several clini...
متن کاملHypofractionated External-Beam Radiotherapy for Prostate Cancer
There are radiobiological rationales supporting hypofractionated radiotherapy for prostate cancer. The recent advancements in treatment planning and delivery allow sophisticated radiation treatments to take advantage of the differences in radiobiology of prostate cancer and the surrounding normal tissues. The preliminary results from clinical studies indicate that abbreviated fractionation prog...
