Abstract
This randomized trial with median followup approaching 9 years showed that cryoablation was inferior in attaining biochemical disease-free survival in patients with locally advanced prostate cancer (cT2c-T3). Cryoablation may be more suited for less bulky prostate cancer. Longer duration neoadjuvant hormonal therapy or a multimodal approach may provide optimal biochemical disease-free survival in this patient population.
