Genomic Classifier Identifies Men With Adverse Pathology After Radical Prostatectomy Who Benefit From Adjuvant Radiation Therapy

TL;DR: In patients treated with post-RP RT, GC is prognostic for the development of clinical metastasis beyond routine clinical and pathologic features, and provides the first rational selection of timing for post- RP RT.

Natural history of progression after PSA elevation following radical prostatectomy.

TL;DR: Several clinical parameters help predict the outcomes of men with PSA elevation after radical prostatectomy, and these data may be useful in the design of clinical trials, the identification of men for enrollment into experimental protocols, and counseling men regarding the timing of administration of adjuvant therapies.

Long-term biochemical disease-free and cancer-specific survival following anatomic radical retropubic prostatectomy. The 15-year Johns Hopkins experience.

TL;DR: In this paper, a large series of 2404 men with a mean follow-up of 6.3 plus or minus 4.2 years (range, 1-17) after anatomic RRP for clinically localized prostate cancer, 412 men have recurred.

Adjuvant radiotherapy for pathologically advanced prostate cancer: a randomized clinical trial.

TL;DR: In men who had undergone radical prostatectomy for pathologically advanced prostate cancer, adjuvant radiotherapy resulted in significantly reduced risk of PSA relapse and disease recurrence, although the improvements in metastasis-free survival and overall survival were not statistically significant.
