One hundred and fifty-five patients with carcinoma of the breast treated by mastectomy were randomised to receive no additional treatment or to receive adjuvant testosterone. After a minimum follow up of 15 years there is no difference in either relapse free survival or overall survival between the treated and control groups. Stratification by pathological nodal status showed no benefit either for those with negative or positive axillary lymph node involvement.

Objective: To evaluate the feasibility and tolerance of ultra-hypofractionated SABR (stereotactic ablative radiation therapy) protocol following radical prostatectomy.
Patients And Methods: We included patients undergoing adjuvant or salvage SABR between April 2019 and April 2023 targeting the surgical bed and pelvic lymph nodes up to a total dose of 36.25 Gy (7.
Highly hypofractionated biaxially rotational dynamic radiation therapy (BROAD-RT) for high-risk prostate cancer.

To report clinical outcomes following highly hypofractionated biaxially rotational dynamic radiation therapy (BROAD-RT), a unique radiation therapy method that facilitates non-coplanar volumetric-modulated arc therapy (VMAT) without the need to rotate the couch or reposition the patient, for high-risk prostate cancer (PCa) with simultaneous integrated boost (SIB) for intra-prostatic dominant lesions (IPDLs), we performed a single-center prospective pilot study. In this study, patients with high-risk PCa according to the D'Amico classification or those with cT3aN0M0 PCa were eligible. VMAT was performed using BROAD-RT, and a dose of 54 Gy in 15 fractions was prescribed for the prostate in combination with SIB for IPDLs at a dose of 57 Gy in 15 fractions.

Background And Objectives: The standard of care for patients with metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (mHSPC) includes androgen deprivation therapy (ADT), novel antihormonal therapies (NHT) and/or chemotherapy. Patients with newly diagnosed oligometastatic prostate cancer (omPCa) represent a distinct subgroup of mHSPC, for which the optimal treatment, particularly the role of radical prostatectomy (RP) and metastasis-directed therapy (MDT), is currently under debate.
Materials And Methods: In this single center, retrospective analysis, 43 patients with newly diagnosed omPCa were included.
Purpose: There is no current standard treatment regimen for carcinoma ex pleomorphic adenoma (CXPA) of the lacrimal gland. Neoadjuvant intraarterial cytoreductive chemotherapy (IACC) followed by multimodal therapy has achieved good locoregional control in adenoid cystic carcinoma of the lacrimal gland. We reviewed our experience with neoadjuvant IACC followed by multimodal therapy for CXPA of the lacrimal gland.
