Effects on annual income changes after radical radiotherapy versus after prostatectomy in patients with localized prostate cancer with a specific employment status: A web-based pilot study.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors compared the effects of post-treatment changes on the annual income of patients with prostate cancer after undergoing radical radiotherapy and prostatectomy and identified the risk factors associated with the decrease in annual income.

Stereotactic body radiation therapy for prostate cancer: review of experience of a multicenter phase I/II dose-escalation study

TL;DR: Prostate specific antigen control rate, even for patients with intermediate risk, is thus far excellent at these dose levels, and provides a platform for exploration of SBRT based clinical trials aimed at optimizing outcome for intermediate and high risk patients.

Stereotactic MRI-guided radiation therapy for localized prostate cancer (SMILE): a prospective, multicentric phase-II-trial

TL;DR: In this paper , the authors evaluated the use of MRI-guided stereotactic radiotherapy for localized prostate cancer in 5 fractions regarding safety and feasibility, showing that the overall treatment time can be reduced to 5-7 fractions with single doses > 6 Gy safely.

Impact of daily soft-tissue image guidance to prostate on pelvic lymph node (PLN) irradiation for prostate patients receiving SBRT.

TL;DR: The 5 mm margin covered ~75% of fractions receiving PLN irradiation with SBRT, daily CBCT and fiducial‐guided setup and was essential for adequate coverage of PLN in a hypofractionated treatment regime.

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%).
