TL;DR: Early SRT at low PSA levels after RP is associated with improved freedom from biochemical failure and distant metastases rates, and on multivariable analysis, pre-SRT PSA, GS, EPE, SVI, surgical margins, ADT use, and SRT dose were associated with FFBF.
Abstract: PurposeWe aimed to update a previously published, multi-institutional nomogram of outcomes for salvage radiotherapy (SRT) following radical prostatectomy (RP) for prostate cancer, including patients treated in the contemporary era.MethodsIndividual data from node-negative patients with a detectable post-RP prostate-specific antigen (PSA) treated with SRT with or without concurrent androgen-deprivation therapy (ADT) were obtained from 10 academic institutions. Freedom from biochemical failure (FFBF) and distant metastases (DM) rates were estimated, and predictive nomograms were generated.ResultsOverall, 2,460 patients with a median follow-up of 5 years were included; 599 patients (24%) had a Gleason score (GS) ≤ 6, 1,387 (56%) had a GS of 7, 244 (10%) had a GS of 8, and 230 (9%) had a GS of 9 to 10. There were 1,370 patients (56%) with extraprostatic extension (EPE), 452 (18%) with seminal vesicle invasion (SVI), 1,434 (58%) with positive surgical margins, and 390 (16%) who received ADT (median, 6 months)....

TL;DR: This work reports an AMPK-independent mechanism of mTORC1 inhibition by Sestrins mediated by their interaction with GATOR2, which is potentially involved in m TORC1 regulation by amino acids, rotenone, and tunicamycin, connecting stress response with mTORc1 inhibition.

TL;DR: An expert panel convened by the National Lipid Association to evaluate the use of selected biomarkers to improve risk assessment, or to adjust therapy is described, intended to provide practical advice to clinicians who wrestle with the challenges of identifying the patients who are most likely to benefit from therapy.
