Prognosis of patients with early salvage radiotherapy and low persisting or increasing PSA levels after radical prostatectomy for prostate cancer. A retrospective comparative analysis

Prognosis with low persistent PSA values seems comparable to that with PSA levels increasing above undetectable. In the absence of other factors, ADT could be omitted in this favorable patient group. Prospective trials are needed.

Abstract

Prognosis with low persistent PSA values seems comparable to that with PSA levels increasing above undetectable. In the absence of other factors, ADT could be omitted in this favorable patient group. Prospective trials are needed.
