Radiotherapy to the prostate for men with metastatic prostate cancer in the UK and Switzerland: Long-term results from the STAMPEDE randomised controlled trial.
(PUBLIC LIBRARY SCIENCE, 2022-06-01)
BACKGROUND: STAMPEDE has previously reported that radiotherapy (RT) to the prostate improved overall survival (OS) for patients with newly diagnosed prostate cancer with low metastatic burden, but not those with high-burden ...
COmparing Urolift and Standard Transurethral resection of prostate Ahead of Radiotherapy in men with urinary symptoms secondary to prostate enlargement in Southwest London and North Cumbria (CO-STAR): a study protocol for a randomised feasibility study.
(BMJ PUBLISHING GROUP, 2023-10-06)
INTRODUCTION: Patients undergoing prostate radiotherapy with an enlarged prostate can have short-term and long-term urinary complications. Currently, transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) is the mainstay surgical ...
Evaluation of therapeutic radiographer contouring for magnetic resonance image guided online adaptive prostate radiotherapy.
(ELSEVIER IRELAND LTD, 2023-03-01)
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: The implementation of MRI-guided online adaptive radiotherapy has facilitated the extension of therapeutic radiographers' roles to include contouring, thus releasing the clinician from attending ...
Repeatability of quantitative individual lesion and total disease multiparametric whole-body MRI measurements in prostate cancer bone metastases.
(BRITISH INST RADIOLOGY, 2023-11-01)
OBJECTIVES: To assess the repeatability of quantitative multiparametric whole-body MRI (mpWB-MRI) parameters in advanced prostate cancer (APC) bone metastases. METHODS: 1.5T MRI was performed twice on the same day in 10 ...
Polygenic hazard score is associated with prostate cancer in multi-ethnic populations.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2021-02-23)
Genetic models for cancer have been evaluated using almost exclusively European data, which could exacerbate health disparities. A polygenic hazard score (PHS1) is associated with age at prostate cancer diagnosis and ...
An integrative multi-omics analysis to identify candidate DNA methylation biomarkers related to prostate cancer risk.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2020-08-06)
It remains elusive whether some of the associations identified in genome-wide association studies of prostate cancer (PrCa) may be due to regulatory effects of genetic variants on CpG sites, which may further influence ...
Relationship of self-reported body size and shape with risk for prostate cancer: A UK case-control study.
(PUBLIC LIBRARY SCIENCE, 2020-09-17)
INTRODUCTION: Previous evidence has suggested a relationship between male self-reported body size and the risk of developing prostate cancer. In this UK-wide case-control study, we have explored the possible association ...
A randomised assessment of image guided radiotherapy within a phase 3 trial of conventional or hypofractionated high dose intensity modulated radiotherapy for prostate cancer.
(ELSEVIER IRELAND LTD, 2020-01-01)
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Image-guided radiotherapy (IGRT) improves treatment set-up accuracy and provides the opportunity to reduce target volume margins. We introduced IGRT methods using standard (IGRT-S) or reduced (IGRT-R) ...
Abiraterone acetate plus prednisolone with or without enzalutamide for patients with metastatic prostate cancer starting androgen deprivation therapy: final results from two randomised phase 3 trials of the STAMPEDE platform protocol.
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2023-05-01)
BACKGROUND: Abiraterone acetate plus prednisolone (herein referred to as abiraterone) or enzalutamide added at the start of androgen deprivation therapy improves outcomes for patients with metastatic prostate cancer. Here, ...
