The individual risk to progression is unclear for intermediate risk prostate cancer patients. To assess their risk to progression, we examined the level of genomic instability in circulating tumor cells (CTCs) using quantitative three-dimensional (3D) telomere analysis.
Randomized trials have shown that androgen-deprivation therapy (ADT) improves survival for men with intermediate-risk prostate cancer treated with radiotherapy (RT). The benefit of ADT to patients with favorable intermediate-risk prostate cancer treated with modern dose-escalated RT is unknown.
Current European Association of Urology, American Urological Association, and National Comprehensive Cancer Network guidelines recommend active surveillance (AS) for selected intermediate-risk prostate cancer (PCa) patients.
To compare 10-year oncologic treatment outcomes of radical prostatectomy (RP) vs external beam radiation therapy (EBRT) vs brachytherapy (BT) for patients with intermediate risk prostate cancer (IRPC).
BERKELEY, CA (UroToday.com) - Intermediate-risk prostate cancer (PC)[1] is a diverse disease with a variable risk of PC-specific mortality (PCSM) after treatment.
