Abstract
The study represents one of the largest retrospective single-institution series of SRT for increasing PSA after RP in patients without any hormonal treatment before the initiation of SRT. Our findings suggest that achieving an undetectable PSA after RT is an important prognosticator for a high chance of cure and patients with a low PSA pre-SRT, positive surgical margins, and low tumor stage at the time of RP are best candidates for SRT.
