Postprostatectomy prostate cancer treated with radiation therapy: adverse features and androgen deprivation therapy use in a statewide consortium.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The 2024 American Urological Association, American Society for Radiation Oncology, and Society of Urologic Oncology practice guidelines recommend early salvage radiation therapy (RT) for biochemical recurrence after radical prostatectomy and androgen deprivation therapy for high-risk features. Increasingly, men with high-risk disease are undergoing radical prostatectomy. We therefore characterized contemporary RT and androgen deprivation therapy practices within the Michigan Radiation Oncology Quality Consortium and Michigan Urological Surgery Improvement Collaborative.

Methods

Patients receiving postprostatectomy RT from June 9, 2020, to June 9, 2024, were eligible. Prospectively collected data included surgical pathology, RT, and androgen deprivation therapy det
