Prostate cancerHypofractionated radiotherapyPostoperative radiotherapyPostoperative external beam radiation therapy (EBRT) is a validated treatment option in the adjuvant setting for prostate cancer patients with aggressive pathological features following radical prostatectomy (RP) or as salvage modality in patients...
A regimen of hypofractionated radiation therapy for prostate cancer does not improve disease failure rates and causes significantly more urinary function problems in some patients than conventional radiotherapy, according to a new study. The findings cast doubt on a long-standing assumption that prostate ...
Objectives: To report toxicity (primary endpoint) and biochemical disease-free survival (BDFS) outcomes of a phase II trial evaluating ultra-hypofractionated radiation therapy (UHRT) focusing on unfavorable intermediate-risk (UIR) and high-risk (HR) prostate cancer (PCa) patients. Patients and ...
We surveyed US-based radiation oncologists (ROs) to gauge HFRT utilization rates for prostate (PC), breast (BC), and rectal cancer (RC) and to characterize the beliefs governing these decisions.Methods: From July to October 2021, an anonymized, online survey was electronically distributed to ...
Hypofractionated (HF) radiation therapy ofprostate cancerhas garnered increasing attention owing to its proposed low α/β value, which is close to 1.5 Gy(1, 2). Hypofractionated treatments increase thetherapeutic ratioand ameliorate logistical inconveniences for both patients and their providers(2-4)...

PURPOSE: A systematic review and meta-analysis were conducted to evaluate the therapeutic outcomes of conventional radiation therapy (CRT) and hypofractionated radiation therapy (HRT) for localized or locally advanced prostate cancer (LLPCa). METHODS AND MATERIALS: A total of 599s were extracted from...
