Paul Sargos, MD, on Prostate Cancer: Adjuvant or Early Salvage Radiotherapy Plus Androgen Deprivation
2020 ASTRO Annual MeetingPaul Sargos, MD, of the Institut Bergonié, discusses phase III findings from the GETUG-AFU 17 study, which compared adjuvant vs early salvage radiotherapy, both combined with short-term androgen-deprivation therapy after radical prostatectomy for localized prostate cancer. Although lacking statistical power, the study showed no benefit in event-free survival for adjuvant compared to salvage radiotherapy (Abstract 33).
