Background/aim: To evaluate the clinical outcome in men with recurrent prostate cancer (PCa) treated by salvage radiotherapy (sRT) prostate-specific membrane antigen positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PSMA PET/CT)-guided.
Patients And Methods: From January 2021 to January 2023, 33 patients who previously underwent definitive/systemic therapy were submitted to sRT PSMA PET/CT-guided for PCa recurrence: 16 (48.5%) on the prostate bed (PB), 12 (36.4%) on the lymph node (LN) and five (15.1%) on the bone. The median PSA value was 3.3 ng/ml (range=0.3-15.5 ng/ml): 0.2-0.5 ng/ml (18.2% cases), 0.51-1 ng/ml (39.4% cases) and >1 ng/ml (42.4% cases). Median F PSMA PET/CT standardized uptake value (SUVmax) was evaluated on PB, vs. LN vs. bones PCa recurrences and was equal to 12.5 vs. 19.0 vs. 30.1, respectively.
Results: Overall, at a median follow up of 12 months, 23/33 patients (69.7%) had local control without distant progression (PSA and SUVmax evaluation): 14/16 (87.5%) vs. 7/12 (58.3%) vs. 2/5 (40%) underwent sRT on the PB vs. LN vs. bone metastases, respectively.
Conclusion: PSMA PET/CT allows to perform sRT early in men with PCa recurrence and low PSA values obtaining a complete clinical response in approximately 70% of the cases one year from treatment.

Purpose: The randomized phase II GORTEC 2014-04 and French Head and Neck Intergroup study showed deeper deterioration of the quality of life (HRQoL) and dramatically higher severe toxicity rates with similar overall survival rates using chemo-SABR compared to SABR alone in oligometastatic head and neck cancer (HNSCC) patients. We evaluated the costs associated with SABR-alone versus chemo-SABR and their associated costs (transportation, hospitalizations, etc).
Materials And Methods: 69 HNSCC patients with 1-3 oligometastases and a controlled primary were randomized from September 2015 to October 2022.

Background: Intraductal carcinoma of the prostate cancer (IDC-P), as a specific pathological type in prostate cancer which usually implies a poor prognosis. IDC-P morphology can be divided into two subtypes: Pattern 1, sieve like or loose cribriform structures; Pattern 2, solid or dense cribriform structures. The purpose of the study is to identify the impact of IDC-P and its subtypes on the prognosis of patients undergoing post-operative radiotherapy (PORT) after radical prostatectomy (RP) due to localized prostate cancer(PCa).

Objective: To assess the clinical value of [F]F-PSMA negative PET/CT, in patients diagnosed with prostate cancer treated with prostatectomy with elevated PSA less than 1 ng/mL, on the outcome of salvage radiotherapy.
Method: We prospectively included 98 patients diagnosed with prostate cancer treated with prostatectomy with biochemical recurrence [mean PSA 0.51 ng/mL (range 0.

Objectives: Rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) is the most common soft tissue sarcoma in children and young adults. Typically, treatment involves a multimodal approach, with radiotherapy (RT) being a standard choice alongside surgical resection for local control, particularly in cases harboring fusions involving FOXO1. However, the long-term consequences of offering RT especially to the extremity in children can be significant including growth delay, contracture, arthritis, and secondary malignancy.

Prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA)-targeted positron emission tomography (PET) has improved localization of prostate cancer (PC) lesions in biochemical recurrence (BCR) for salvage radiotherapy (SRT). We conducted a retrospective review of patients undergoing F-rhPSMA-7 or F-flotufolastat (F-rhPSMA-7.3)-PET-guided SRT compared with conventional-SRT (C-SRT) without PET.
