Late Genitourinary Toxicity Outcomes in 300 Prostate Cancer Patients Treated With Dose-escalated Image-guided Intensity-modulated Radiotherapy

Our study showed acceptable levels of late grade 2 genitourinary toxicity and low rates of late grade 3 genitourinary toxicity in a cohort of patients with prostate cancer treated with image-guided IMRT to doses between 78 and 84 Gy. Variables associated with increased late ≥ 2 genitourinary toxicity include previous TURP, alpha blocker use, hormone use and pre-existing urinary dysfunction.
