Following the publication of the above article, a concerned reader drew to the Editor's attention that certain of the western blot assay data shown in Fig. 4G on p. 717 were strikingly similar to data that had appeared in a paper published previously in the journal , which had been written by different authors at different research institutes.

Purpose: High-dose-rate brachytherapy (HDR-BT) combined with external beam radiotherapy (EBRT) is an effective treatment for patients with high- and very-high-risk prostate cancer. We sought to identify the factors associated with reduced biochemical recurrence rates following HDR-BT.
Methods: A total of 304 patients with high- or very-high-risk prostate cancer who underwent HDR-BT and EBRT were analyzed.

We present a case of a 66-year-old man with a three-year history of Gleason 10 prostate cancer (PCa), who presented with penile pain, erythema, and induration of the penile shaft. His cancer was treated with androgen deprivation therapy (ADT), radiotherapy, and apalutamide, resulting in PSA reduction; however, a solitary penile lesion persisted, necessitating radical penectomy. At 12 months post-surgery, PSA levels and magnetic resonance imaging findings remained stable, with no signs of metastasis.

Background And Objective: We evaluate prognostic factors and patterns of recurrence in patients who received RT ± androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) for pathologic node-positive (pN1) prostate cancer (PCa) in a multi-institutional cohort.
Methods: Data from patients with pN1 PCa and received RT with short term (ST, ≤6 mo) or long term (LT, >6 mo) ADT were obtained from 4 academic institutions. Biochemical progression free survival (bPFS) and distant metastasis free survival (DMFS) were evaluated.

Introduction: Prostate cancer (PCa) is the most common cancer in men. Recurrence may occur in up to half of patients initially treated with curative intent for high-risk localised/locally advanced PCa. Pelvic nodal recurrence is common in this setting, but no clear standard of care exists for these patients, with potential therapeutic approaches including stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) to the involved node(s) alone, extended nodal irradiation (ENI) to treat sites of potential micrometastatic spread in addition to involved node(s) and androgen deprivation therapy with or without additional systemic anticancer therapies.
