Predictors of Biochemical Outcome With Salvage Conformal Radiotherapy After Radical Prostatectomy for Prostate Cancer

Abstract

Salvage 3D-CRT can provide biochemical control in selected patients with a rising PSA after radical prostatectomy. Among patients with positive margins and no poor prognostic features, 77% achieved PSA control after salvage 3D-CRT. Salvage neoadjuvant androgen deprivation therapy may improve short-term biochemical control, but it requires further study.
