Clinical strategies for improving the radiotherapeutic management of prostate cancer.

The goal of treatment of localized and locally advanced prostate cancer is to cure without causing unacceptable complications. The recognition that cure rates for localized and locally advanced prostate cancer treated with traditional means are far lower than previously estimated (1-4) has provided the impetus to seek improved local therapies. In particular, 3D conformal radiation therapy (3D-CRT) and the combination of radiation and hormone therapy are promising. Advances in these and other areas are discussed below.
