In the absence of trials, a post hoc analysis compared stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) and high-dose-rate brachytherapy (HDR-BT) in intermediate-risk prostate cancer.
The use of active surveillance or watchful waiting increased by more than twofold overall between 2010 and 2020 among patients with intermediate-risk prostate cancer. Current guidelines support active ...
In the long term, stereotactic body radiotherapy carries a lower risk for biochemical failure vs high-dose rate brachytherapy for men with intermediate-risk prostate cancer.
The average age of men who get diagnosed is 67.

In prostate cancer, prostate brachytherapy boost improves biochemical failure at 10 years but does not prolong long-term OS compared to EBRT boost.
Adding 6 months of neoadjuvant deprivation therapy (NADT) doesn’t seem to add any benefit for patients with intermediate-risk prostate cancer treated with external-beam radiation therapy (EBRT), ...
