Relationship Between Radiation Therapy and Fecal Incontinence in Patients Treated for Localized Prostate Cancer: Results of the French ICONES Study.

Background: Radiation-induced late fecal incontinence (LFI) is one of the most quality-of-life impairing symptoms in prostate cancer. We aimed to assess the impact of radiotherapy (RT) technique and dose-volume effects on LFI using a robust score.

Methods: We identified 409 patients who underwent curative intent using standard fractionated radiation therapy, 190 of them were finally included and analyzed.

Effect of Serelys Homme on the Incidence and Severity of Vasomotor Symptoms and Quality-of-Life Impairments in Patients Receiving Hormone Therapy and Radiation for Localized Prostate Cancer: Results of the ESCULAPE Phase 2 Prospective Study.

Purpose: Androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) may cause vasomotor symptoms (VMS) including hot flushes and sweats, which affect quality of life (QoL). Serelys Homme is a nonhormonal and a natural origin product that could affect VMS in men undergoing ADT. We evaluated effectiveness and tolerance of Serelys Homme administration on VMS and QoL of patients undergoing combined ADT and radiation therapy for prostate cancer.
