Ultra-hypofractionated radiation therapy for unfavourable intermediate-risk and high-risk prostate cancer is safe and effective: 5-year outcomes of a phase II trial.

TL;DR: To report toxicity (primary endpoint) and biochemical disease‐free survival (BDFS) outcomes of a phase II trial evaluating ultra‐hypofractionated radiation therapy (UHRT), focusing on patients with unfavourable intermediate‐risk and high‐risk prostate cancer (PCa).

Prostate SBRT: Comparison the Efficacy and Toxicity of Two Different Dose Fractionation Schedules.

TL;DR: A practical strategy could be to more strongly consider the high dose regimen in those with the greatest potential longevity, while for those with a more limited longevity, particularly if they have minimal negative prognostic factors, the moderate dose regimen could be more attractive.

Stereotactic body radiation therapy: Let's not give up on progress.

TL;DR: Stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) is a promising radiation therapy technique that delivers larger fractions of radiation more precisely than standardly fractionated radiation, and is likely more convenient in treating cancers that have long treatment courses.

Hypofractionated intensity-modulated radiation therapy for prostate cancer confined to the pelvis: analysis of efficacy and late toxicity

TL;DR: Moderately hypofractionated IMRT for prostate cancer is efficacious and well-tolerated in this predominantly high-risk, locally advanced, or N1 Chinese patients and is associated with low rates of severe late toxicity during early follow-up.

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%).
