Journal ArticleDOI
Endocrine treatment, with or without radiotherapy, in locally advanced prostate cancer (SPCG-7/SFUO-3): an open randomised phase III trial.
Anders Widmark,Olbjørn Klepp,Arne Solberg,Jan-Erik Damber,Anders Angelsen,Per Fransson,Jo-Åsmund Lund,Ilker Tasdemir,Morten Høyer,Fredrik Wiklund,Sophie D. Fosså +10 more
TL;DR: In patients with locally advanced or high-risk local prostate cancer, addition of local radiotherapy to endocrine treatment halved the 10-year prostate-cancer-specific mortality, and substantially decreased overall mortality with fully acceptable risk of side-effects compared with endocrine Treatment alone.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ultra-hypofractionated versus conventionally fractionated radiotherapy for prostate cancer: 5-year outcomes of the HYPO-RT-PC randomised, non-inferiority, phase 3 trial
Anders Widmark,Adalsteinn Gunnlaugsson,Lars Beckman,Camilla Thellenberg-Karlsson,Morten Høyer,Magnus Lagerlund,Jon Kindblom,Claes Ginman,Bengt Johansson,Kirsten Björnlinger,Mihajl Seke,Måns Agrup,Per Fransson,Björn Tavelin,David Norman,Björn Zackrisson,Harald Anderson,Elisabeth Kjellén,Lars Franzén,Per Nilsson +19 more
TL;DR: There was weak evidence of an increased frequency of acute physician-reported RTOG grade 2 or worse urinary toxicity in the ultra-hypofractionation group at end of radiotherapy, consistent with the physician-evaluated toxicity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cohort Profile: The National Prostate Cancer Register of Sweden and Prostate Cancer data Base Sweden 2.0
Mieke Van Hemelrijck,Annette Wigertz,Fredrik Sandin,Hans Garmo,Karin Hellström,Per Fransson,Anders Widmark,Mats Lambe,Jan Adolfsson,Eberhard Varenhorst,Jan-Erik Johansson,Pär Stattin +11 more
TL;DR: The database named Prostate Cancer data Base Sweden (PCBaSe) has now been extended with more cases, longer follow-up and a selection of two control series of men free of PCa at the time of sampling, resulting in PCBaSe 2.0.
Journal ArticleDOI
Self-assessment questionnaire for evaluating urinary and intestinal late side effects after pelvic radiotherapy in patients with prostate cancer compared with an age-matched control population
TL;DR: In men older than 60 years, treatment‐induced problems should be evaluated in relation to problems in an age‐matched nonirradiated population.
Journal ArticleDOI
Late side effects unchanged 4-8 years after radiotherapy for prostate carcinoma: a comparison with age-matched controls.
Per Fransson,Anders Widmark +1 more
TL;DR: Pelvic irradiation–induced late side effects in patients with localized prostatic carcinoma 4 years after external irradiation are evaluated by administering a validated self‐assessment questionnaire (QUFW94).
