Beyond Just Androgen Deprivation Therapy: Novel Therapies Combined With Radiation
External beam radiation therapy (EBRT) combined with androgen deprivation are standard of care for selected patients with prostate cancer. In recent years, multiple therapies have been experimentally combined with EBRT either concomitantly or adjuvantly. These therapies include chemotherapies, immunotherapies, and novel hormones. In addition to EBRT, clinical trials with radiopharmaceuticals are planned or have been performed with concomitant chemotherapy, immunotherapies, novel hormones, and inhibitors of DNA damage repair.
