Androgen deprivation with or without radiation therapy for clinically node-positive prostate cancer.
BACKGROUND Clinically lymph node-positive (cN+) prostate cancer (PCa) is an often-fatal disease. Its optimal management remains largely undefined given a lack of prospective, randomized data to inform practice. We sought to describe modern practice patterns in the management of cN+ PCa and assess the effect of adding radiation therapy (RT) to androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) on survival using...
متن کاملLong-Term Survival and PSA Control with Radiation and Immunotherapy for Node Positive Prostate Cancer
We describe a patient with node positive prostate cancer treated with radiation, androgen deprivation, and immunotherapy with long-term overall survival and PSA control. ELISPOT immunoassay studies demonstrated PSA specific T-cells prior to starting vaccine therapy suggesting that this positive response may be related to an improved antitumor immune response of the patient, increased immunogeni...
متن کاملManagement of lymph node-positive prostate cancer: the role of surgery and radiation therapy.
There is no clear consensus on how to manage a subset of patients with prostate cancer (PCa) who present with involved lymph nodes (LN+). Although outcomes for these patients are uniformly worse than those for patients with localized PCa, they are better than outcomes for patients with bone metastases, with more than 60% of patients alive at 10 years after the initial diagnosis. This article re...
متن کاملMultimodality Treatment for Patients with Node-Positive Prostate Cancer: the Role of Radiation Therapy.
Prostate cancer is the secondary most frequently diagnosed cancer in the world. Although numerous prospective randomized trial have been conducted to guide the management of patients with localized or locally advanced prostate cancer, few clinical trials targeting node-positive prostate cancer have been reported. Therefore, there are still controversies in the optimal management of node-positiv...
متن کاملSurvival among men with clinically localized prostate cancer treated with radical prostatectomy or radiation therapy in the prostate specific antigen
Radical prostatectomy, external beam radiotherapy and brachytherapy are accepted treatments for localized prostate cancer. However, it is unknown if survival differences exist among treatments. We analyzed the survival of patients treated with these modalities according to contemporary standards. A total of 10,429 consecutive patients with localized prostate cancer treated with radical prostate...
