Abstract

Objective: To evaluate the effectiveness of intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) combined androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) for  prostate cancer stage II-IVs  at Cho Ray Cancer Center. Subject and method: Prospective, case series report of 88 prostate cancer stage II-IVa patients, treated with Intensity- Modulated Radiation Therapy (IMRT) with cone-beam computerized tomography imaging-guided combined androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) from June 01, 2015 to December 31, 2021 at Cho Ray Cancer Center. Result: 88 patients enrolled with median age of 71 (range of 51-91). The prescribed radiation dose ranged from 72Gy to 78Gy. Median percentage of planning target volumes received 95% dose was good (97%-99%). All organs at risk received acceptable doses. Preradiation median PSA was 38ng/ml. Post-radiation median PSA was 0.175ng/ml (p=0.023). Progresssion-free survival at 2-year, 3-year, 5-year were 93.5%, 89.3%, 78.5%, respectively. Conclusion: IMRT combined androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) for prostate cancer stage II-IVa is safe technique and improves survival rate of patients.
