Outcomes of salvage high dose-rate brachytherapy with or without pelvic external beam radiotherapy in patients with palpable local recurrence of prostate cancer after radical prostatectomy

This study demonstrates the safety and efficacy of salvage HDR-BT in the setting of palpable local recurrence of prostate cancer after RP, with durable locoregional control and acceptable rates of toxicity. HDR-BT should be further explored as an option for dose-escalated salvage radiotherapy after prior radical prostatectomy.
