Prostate-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...
متن کاملHypofractionated SBRT versus conventionally fractionated EBRT for prostate cancer: comparison of PSA slope and nadir
BACKGROUND Patients with early stage prostate cancer have a variety of curative radiotherapy options, including conventionally-fractionated external beam radiotherapy (CF-EBRT) and hypofractionated stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT). Although results of CF-EBRT are well known, the use of SBRT for prostate cancer is a more recent development, and long-term follow-up is not yet available. Howe...
متن کاملHypofractionated 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 کاملProstate-specific antigen kinetics after hypofractionated stereotactic body radiotherapy for localized prostate cancer
Background: stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) has emerged as an effective treatment for localized prostate cancer. However, prostate-specific antigen (PSA) kinetics after SBRT has not been well characterized. The objective of the current study is to analyze the rate of PSA decline and PSA nadir following hypofractonated SBRT in localized prostate cancer. Materials and Methods: From 2008...
متن کاملAccelerated hypofractionated thoracic radiotherapy in limited disease small cell lung cancer : comparison with the results of conventionally fractionated radiotherapy.
PURPOSE To compare accelerated hypofractionated (A-HYPO) radiotherapy (RT) with conventionally fractionated (CF) thoracic RT in patients with limited-disease small-cell lung cancer (LD-SCLC). METHODS Out of 217 consecutive LD-SCLC patients, treated between 1997 and 2012, 82 received CF-RT (44-60 Gy, 2 Gy/ fraction) sequentially to 4-6 cycles of platinum-based chemotherapy (CHT), and 100 recei...
