Chemoradiotherapy versus radiotherapy in patients with advanced nasopharyngeal cancer: phase III randomized Intergroup study 0099.

The Frequency of Carcinoma and Intraepithelial Neoplasia of the Prostate in Young Male Patients

TL;DR: Prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia and histological cancers are surprisingly common in young male patients of both races, and appears to present several decades earlier than clinically detected carcinoma.
Journal Article

High grade prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia (HGPIN) and prostatic adenocarcinoma between the ages of 20-69: an autopsy study of 249 cases.

TL;DR: HGPIN was encountered in 0, 5, 10, 41 and 63% of men in the 3rd, 4th, 5th and 7th decades, respectively, and corresponding figures for invasive carcinoma were 2, 29, 32, 55, and 64% respectively.

Treatment and Prevention of Intraepithelial Neoplasia: An Important Target for Accelerated New Agent Development: Recommendations of the American Association for Cancer Research Task Force on the Treatment and Prevention of Intraepithelial Neoplasia

TL;DR: The AACR IEN Task Force recommends focusing on established precancers as the target for new agent development because of the close association between dysplasia and invasive cancer and because a convincing reduction in IEN burden provides patient benefit by reducing cancer risk and/or by decreasing the need for invasive interventions.
