Adjuvant radiation therapy, androgen deprivation, and docetaxel for high‐risk prostate cancer postprostatectomy: Results of NRG Oncology/RTOG study 0621
Abstract
BACKGROUND: Phase 3 trials have demonstrated a benefit from adjuvant radiation therapy (ART) for men who have adverse factors at radical prostatectomy (RP). However, some patients have a high risk of progression despite ART. The role of systemic therapy with ART in this high-risk group remains to be defined.
