Impact of Ga-68-PSMA PET/CT on management in prostate cancer patients with very early biochemical recurrence after radical prostatectomy.
(SPRINGER, 2019-04-01)
PURPOSE: With the availability of ultra-sensitive PSA assays, early biochemical relapse (eBCR) of prostate cancer is increasingly being detected at values much lower than the conventional threshold of 0.2 ng/ml. Accurate ...
Dosimetry and Gastrointestinal Toxicity Relationships in a Phase II Trial of Pelvic Lymph Node Radiotherapy in Advanced Localised Prostate Cancer.
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE LONDON, 2019-06-01)
AIMS: Pelvic lymph node (PLN) radiotherapy for high-risk prostate cancer is limited by late gastrointestinal toxicity. Application of rectal and bowel constraints may reduce risks of side-effects. We evaluated associations ...
Addition of docetaxel to hormonal therapy in low- and high-burden metastatic hormone sensitive prostate cancer: long-term survival results from the STAMPEDE trial.
(OXFORD UNIV PRESS, 2019-12-01)
BACKGROUND: STAMPEDE has previously reported that the use of upfront docetaxel improved overall survival (OS) for metastatic hormone naïve prostate cancer patients starting long-term androgen deprivation therapy. We report ...
Patterns of recurrence after prostate bed radiotherapy.
(ELSEVIER IRELAND LTD, 2019-12-01)
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Prostate bed radiotherapy is a standard treatment after radical prostatectomy. Recent evidence suggests that, for patients with a PSA > 0.34 ng/ml, the radiotherapy treatment volume should include ...
Validation of T2- and diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging for mapping intra-prostatic tumour prior to focal boost dose-escalation using intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT).
(ELSEVIER IRELAND LTD, 2019-12-01)
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: To assess the diagnostic accuracy and inter-observer agreement of T2-weighted (T2W) and diffusion-weighted (DW) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for mapping intra-prostatic tumour lesions (IPLs) for ...
Abiraterone in "High-" and "Low-risk" Metastatic Hormone-sensitive Prostate Cancer.
(ELSEVIER, 2019-12-01)
BACKGROUND: Abiraterone acetate received licencing for use in only "high-risk" metastatic hormone-naïve prostate cancer (mHNPC) following the LATITUDE trial findings. However, a "risk"-related effect was not seen in the ...
Interim Results from the IMPACT Study: Evidence for Prostate-specific Antigen Screening in BRCA2 Mutation Carriers.
(ELSEVIER, 2019-09-18)
BACKGROUND: Mutations in BRCA2 cause a higher risk of early-onset aggressive prostate cancer (PrCa). The IMPACT study is evaluating targeted PrCa screening using prostate-specific-antigen (PSA) in men with germline BRCA1/2 ...
