Propensity Score Matched Analysis of External Beam Radiotherapy With or Without Focal Boost to Intraprostatic Lesions in Prostate Cancer
SIB with external beam RT significantly improves bDFS and reduces LR and DM in intermediate- and high-risk PCa, with no increase in significant toxicities. These findings emphasize the value of dose escalation in achieving better local control and long-term outcomes while maintaining patient safety.
