Hypofractionated 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...
متن کاملExternal Beam Radiotherapy in Prostate Cancer
For the first time in their history, the 2 medical organizations most responsible for the treatment of prostate cancer in the United States—the American Society for Radiation Oncology (ASTRO) and the American Urological Association (AUA)—have issued a joint guideline, a series of 9 major statements on the use of radiation therapy (either adjuvant or salvage) after prostatectomy. The statements ...

متن کاملRadical external beam radiotherapy for clinically localized prostate cancer in Japan: changing trends in the patterns of care process survey.
PURPOSE To delineate changing trends in radical external beam radiotherapy (EBRT) for prostate cancer in Japan. METHODS AND MATERIALS Data from 841 patients with clinically localized prostate cancer treated with EBRT in the Japanese Patterns of Care Study (PCS) from 1996 to 2005 were analyzed. RESULTS Significant increases in the proportions of patients with stage T1 to T2 disease and decre...
متن کاملProstate-specific antigen kinetics following hypofractionated stereotactic body radiotherapy boost as post-external beam radiotherapy versus conventionally fractionated external beam radiotherapy for localized prostate cancer
BACKGROUND Stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) has emerged as an effective treatment for localized prostate cancer. The purpose of this study was to compare the prostate-specific antigen (PSA) kinetics between conventionally fractionated external beam radiotherapy (CF-EBRT) and SBRT boost after whole pelvis EBRT (WP-EBRT) in localized prostate cancer. METHODS A total of 77 patients with loc...
