Key clinical point: In patients with prostate cancer, salvage radiotherapy (SRT) for biochemical recurrence after radical prostatectomy is associated with improved survival in the long term.
Major finding: The median follow up was 95.9 months. At 15 years, SRT was associated with a significantly higher metastasis-free survival (84.3% vs. 76.9%; adjusted hazard ratio [aHR] 0.37; P < .001) and overall survival (85.3% vs. 74.4%; aHR 0.64; P = .03).
Study details: A propensity score-matched analysis of 874 patients with prostate cancer who experienced biochemical recurrence after radical prostatectomy and underwent SRT or observation between 1989 and 2016.
Disclosures: No external funding source was identified for this work. The authors declared no conflicts of interest.
