Abstract
As expected from radiobiological considerations, HFX reduces GI and GU late toxicities. Concerning early bRFS, our clinical findings suggest that HFX is no less effective than STD when delivering an isoeffective (α/β=10) dose. Despite the relatively short follow-up, this result appears to be inconsistent with a low α/β ratio for prostate cancer.
