In early 2012, it was discovered that intermittent androgen deprivation is equal in long-term survival to continuous androgen deprivation. A new paradigm of treatment, in which androgen deprivation was given for 8-9 months and then discontinued if the PSA normalized, was published. Re-treatment is...
Sixty scans (14.5%) were positive for metastatic cancer. Univariate analysis demonstrated that preoperative PSA (P = 0.04), seminal vesicle invasion (P = 0.02), PSA velocity (P <0.001) and PSA levels before the BS (trigger PSA; P <0.001) predicted a positive BS result. Multivariate ...
This study attempted to develop an approach to treat the human and organizational factors for multi-unit HRA. This approach was also developed to be applicable to levels 1, 2, and 3 PSA, while the major issues of multi-unit HRA are also investigated and reflected in this study. First, six...
