Abstract

When asked to write this editorial, I initially demurred, reasoning that the subject at hand is the subject of 2 randomized controlled studies of almost 1500 subjects; and both have reported their initial results. The European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer trial, a study of about 1000 men, has reported their short-term results: a significant reduction in prostate-specific antigen relapse with radiotherapy.1 The Southwestern Oncology Group 8794 trial, with longer follow-up, showed an even greater reduction in biochemical failure, delaying the median time to failure by 7 years.
