  • Title: [Hormono-radiotherapy of non-metastatic prostate cancers].
    Author: Richaud P, Mazeron JJ.
    Journal: Cancer Radiother; 2002 May; 6(3):175-82. PubMed ID: 12116843.
    Abstract:
    Patients presenting with non-metastatic cancer of prostate have a high probability of relapse if they are treated by either surgery alone or irradiation alone, when poor prognosis factors are present. Clinical stage (> or = T3a), Gleason score, and PSA level (> 20 ng/mL) are the more significant factors. It is likely that many patients can draw benefit of combined androgenic suppression and radiotherapy. However, despite results of European and American trials published the last decade, a number of questions remain without a clear response, especially on the modalities of treatment according to the characteristics of the disease.
