Reliable prognostic biomarkers to distinguish indolent from aggressive prostate cancer (PCa) are lacking. Many studies investigated microRNAs (miRs) as PCa prognostic biomarkers, often reporting inconsistent findings. We present a systematic review of th

Over the past two decades, serum PSA screening has provided a valuable tool for prostate cancer surveillance, however the age-adjusted incidence of mortality has remained relatively constant, therefore new tools are needed to guide prognosis and treatment. Research into the genetic origins of prostate...
PURPOSE: To analyze the frequency and clinical importance of proctitis and hematochezia after radiation therapy for prostate cancer. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Of 63 patients with prostate cancer treated with curative intent by a single radiation oncologist between July 1, 1993, and December 31, 1997, ...

has improved OS in patients with mCRPC. Advancements in treatment strategies by analyzing cancer prognosis and patient preferences have helped lower mortality and increase the QoL of PC survivors. There appear to be a number of future therapies, such as the DNA repair pathway, platinum-based chemot...
Once radiation is done for the prostate, surgical removal of the prostate becomes very difficult, and is not usually offered as a treatment option. However, it can be used if prostate cancer recurs after surgery. Side effects of radiation are similar to those of surgery and include erectile dy...
