- Alicia Morgans interviews Thomas Zilli about the PEACE V study. The study, termed the STORM trial, investigates treatment strategies for patients with oligorecurrent prostate cancer, comparing focalized SBRT, comprehensive irradiation, and salvage lymph node dissection combined with six months of ADT. Aimed at determining the best approach for these patients, the trial specifically looks at metast...

- Although there has been a single retrospective study published of salvage SBRT after brachytherapy, re-irradiation post-brachytherapy (PMID: 36739178) is largely unstudied. Here we present the first prospective trial for salvage SBRT paradigm after brachytherapy, NCT03253744. Biographies: Krishnan R. Patel, MD, Radiation Oncology Branch, National Cancer Institute, NIH, Bethesda, MD Related Content...
