Elevation of Baseline PSA Levels After Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy (IMRT) for Prostate Cancer: Discrimination From Biochemical FailureNeoplasms of the oral cavitypostoperative radiation therapyconcurrent chemotherapySuicide gene therapy has become an effective therapy for breast cancer, and ultrasound ...
A UCLA-led study has found treatments that reduce the risk of being diagnosed with a cancer recurrence based on rising prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels after radiotherapy, commonly referred to as biochemical recurrence, do not necessarily improve a patient's long-term overall survival. The t...
Your doctor will also consider other things, including what your PSA levels were before you had cancer, your overall health, and whether you've had radiation therapy. After radiation therapy it may take 1-2 years for your PSA to drop to its lowest level. ...
After radiation therapy for prostate cancer.Your PSA will likely drop to its lowest point slowly over about 2 years after radiation. Your doctor will test your PSA levels every couple of months. Again, if your PSA levels go up over several tests, especially if it's fast, you may need fur...
Bounces occur only in men who are treated with radiation therapy and can be ongoing for years. They do not occur after prostatectomy, which reduces PSA to undetectable levels almost immediately after surgery. The Japanese team defines PSA bounce as an increase of at least 0.4 ng/mL from a pr...
In general, the goal is to keep the PSA levels as low as possible or to achieve a significant decrease in PSA levels over time. However, the specific target levels may differ based on individual circumstances and treatment goals. For example, after surgery or radiation therapy, the target PSA...
Symposium: When PSA levels rise after prostatectomyThe article presents a symposium which discussed various approaches for different clinical scenarios involving the diverse population of men. Explanations for ...

1 report the therapeutic outcomes of salvage radiation therapy (sRT) after radical prostatectomy (RP) for lymph‐node‐negative prostate cancer in 422 and 133 patients with biochemical relapse or persistently detectable PSA, respectively. In the total cohort, patients with persistent PSA serum levels ...
