The experience of using remote radiation therapy of prostate cancer in the hypofractionation dose mode
Abstract
The article presents the modern possibilities of remote radiation therapy of locally advanced prostate cancer. The method of 3D conformal radiation therapy with modulation of the intensity of the radiation beam, with the addition of a simultaneous integrated boost in the hypofraction mode for the treatment of locally advanced prostate cancer, has been proposed.On the basis of the Gomel Regional Clinical Oncology Center, patients were treated using this technique. The results of their treatment are analyzed. Long-term treatment outcomes were evaluated in terms of overall observed survival and relapse-free survival.Assessment of toxicity resulting from RT was carried out according to RTOG / EORTC standards. The results of the study of treated patients indicate the effectiveness of the proposed methodology and its advantage.Radiation therapy in hypofractionation mode is well tolerated by patients and is not accompanied by an increase in the frequency and severity of radiation damage to normaltissues.The developed technique allowed to increase the 3-year, 5-year overall and relapse-free survival rates.
