Health-related quality of life of salvage prostate reirradiation using stereotactic ablative radiotherapy with urethral-sparing

TL;DR: Pursuit of local control in intraprostatic failures is feasible and can be achieved with an acceptably low toxicity profile associated with effective OAR sparing.

Hypofractionated radiotherapy for prostate cancer: how far can we go?

TL;DR: This thesis investigated the feasibility of moderate and extreme hypofractionated radiotherapy for prostate cancer with emphasis on treatment induced side effects, using patient self-assessment questionnaires (PSAQ).

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%).
