The article discusses prostate cancer and treatment options. New interventions such as high-intensity focused ultrasound and robot-assisted surgery have become available. Some men opt for traditional radiation therapy, while others decline any treatment. Quality of life weighs in the decision. Prostate ...
Prostate cancer is comprised nearly always of adenocarcinomacells -- cells that arise from glandular tissue. Cancer cells are named according to the organ in which they originate no matter where in the body we find such cells. Thus, if prostate cancer cells spread in the body to the bones, ...

Prostate cancer: PD-L1 expression is common and indicates poor prognosisPatient summary: None of the available biomarkers can identify node-positive prostate cancer that will recur after surgery. We found that expression of PD-L1 by tumor cells and a high density of CD8(+) T cells in tumor ...
Prostate cancer is a heterogeneous disease with patient outcomes depending on risk stratification. In clinical practice, Gleason scores alone are not used to determine prognosis and recurrence risk, instead the score is used in conjunction with PSA levels and TNM staging. ...
If radiation fails then surgery may not be feasible, and radiation after surgery failure may have complications, associated with small increase in bladder and colon cancer. Prognostic indicators of disease outcome are stage, pre-therapy PSA level and Gleason score, higher the grade, and the stage...
What is the outlook/prognosis for prostate cancer? When caught early and treated, patients with prostate cancer have a high chance of being cancer free after surgery. This will depend on the grade and extent of the cancer, as well as the patient’s other medical problems. While prostate canc...
According to previous database retrospective studies, radiotherapy for primary focus of metastatic prostate cancer or surgery can improve the overall prognosis of prostate cancer patients with small metastatic load, but there is still a lack of large-sample randomized controlled studies to confirm its ...
Poor prognosis category Novel prostate cancer classification DESNT prostate cancer Latent Process Decomposition 1. Introduction Risk categories based on prostate-specific antigen (PSA), Gleason score, and Clinical Stage that predict PSA failure [1], underpin the treatment of localized prostate cancer, as...
49. This same combination identifies a subtype of human prostate cancer characterized by poor prognosis50. The discovery ofMAGI2genomic rearrangements in prostate cancer suggests that interrogating both thePTENandMAGI2loci might improve prognostication and patient stratification for clinical trials of PI3 ...
