Stereotactic body radiotherapy with periprostatic hydrogel spacer for localized prostate cancer: toxicity profile and early oncologic outcomes.

TL;DR: Periprostatic hydrogel placement followed by prostate SBRT resulted in minimal GI toxicity, and favorable early oncologic outcomes, indicating that SBRt with peripro static spacer is a well-tolerated, safe, and convenient treatment option for localized prostate cancer.

High-dose per Fraction Radiotherapy Induces Both Antitumor Immunity and Immunosuppressive Responses in Prostate Tumors.

TL;DR: In allograft prostate cancer models, high-dose radiotherapy induced an early rise of MDSC, followed by a transient increase of functionally active CD8 TILs, indicating blocking both MDSCs and Tregs might be necessary to enhance radiotherapy-induced antitumor immunity.

Radiotherapy for prostate cancer and sexual health

TL;DR: Prevention of post-radiation ED with PDE5-I cannot be recommended so far due to the lack of robust data, but patients and their partners need to be adequately counselled on the effects of cancer treatment on their sexual life and relationship.

Multi-institutional registry for prostate cancer radiosurgery: a prospective observational clinical trial.

TL;DR: Stereotactic radiosurgery is an alternative option to conventional radiotherapy for the treatment of organ-confined prostate cancer and represents the collective experience of multiple institutions, including community-based cancer centers, with outcome results in keeping with published, prospective trials of prostate SBRT.

Long-term outcomes from a prospective trial of stereotactic body radiotherapy for low-risk prostate cancer.

TL;DR: Significant late bladder and rectal toxicities from SBRT for prostate cancer are infrequent and the current evidence supports consideration of stereotactic body radiotherapy among the therapeutic options for localized prostate cancer.

Hypofractionated intensity-modulated radiotherapy (70 Gy at 2.5 Gy per fraction) for localized prostate cancer: Cleveland Clinic experience.

TL;DR: The outcomes after high-dose hypofractionation were acceptable in the entire cohort of patients treated with the schedule of 70 at 2.5 Gy/fraction and the 5-year nadir + 2 ng/mL rate was 83% (95% confidence interval, 79–86%).

Stereotactic hypofractionated accurate radiotherapy of the prostate (SHARP), 33.5 Gy in five fractions for localized disease: First clinical trial results

TL;DR: In this paper, the feasibility and toxicity of stereotactic hypofractionated accurate radiotherapy (SHARP) for localized prostate cancer were evaluated in a Phase I/II trial with 40 patients.
