Salvage radiotherapy for recurrent prostate cancer after radical prostatectomy.
CONTEXT Salvage radiotherapy may potentially cure patients with disease recurrence after radical prostatectomy, but previous evidence has suggested that it is ineffective in patients at the highest risk of metastatic disease progression. OBJECTIVE To delineate patients who may benefit from salvage radiotherapy for prostate cancer recurrence by identifying variables associated with a durable r...
متن کاملPredicting the outcome of salvage radiation therapy for recurrent prostate cancer after radical prostatectomy.
PURPOSE An increasing serum prostate-specific antigen (PSA) level is the initial sign of recurrent prostate cancer among patients treated with radical prostatectomy. Salvage radiation therapy (SRT) may eradicate locally recurrent cancer, but studies to distinguish local from systemic recurrence lack adequate sensitivity and specificity. We developed a nomogram to predict the probability of canc...
متن کاملSalvage External Beam Radiotherapy for Prostate Cancer After Radical Prostatectomy
Prostate cancer is the second most common cause of cancer death in American men, with 192,289 new cases and 27,360 deaths expected in 2009.[1] While radical prostatectomy provides excellent control for clinically localized disease, approximately one-third of patients undergoing surgery will have positive surgical margins and another 9% will have seminal vesicle invasion.[2-5] Around one-third o...
متن کاملSalvage conformal radiotherapy for biochemical recurrent prostate cancer after radical prostatectomy.
OBJECTIVE Assess the results of salvage conformal radiotherapy in patients with biochemical failure after radical prostatectomy and identify prognostic factors for biochemical recurrence and toxicity of the treatment. MATERIALS AND METHODS From June 1998 to November 2001, 35 patients were submitted to conformal radiotherapy for PSA > or = 0.2 ng/mL in progression after radical prostatectomy a...
متن کاملEarly salvage radiation therapy does not compromise cancer control in patients with pT3N0 prostate cancer after radical prostatectomy: results of a match-controlled multi-institutional analysis.
BACKGROUND Previous randomised trials demonstrated that adjuvant radiation therapy (aRT) improves cancer control in patients with pT3 prostate cancer (PCa). However, there is currently no evidence supporting early salvage radiation therapy (eSRT) as equivalent to aRT in improving freedom from biochemical recurrence (BCR) after radical prostatectomy (RP). OBJECTIVE To evaluate BCR-free surviva...
