Directly from this Journal of Clinical Oncology Original Report: “Among men randomly assigned to receive ADT + RT + docetaxel versus ADT + RT, significantly less RT-induced cancers were observed. The treatment effect of adding docetaxel to ADT + RT on overall survival in men with a prostate-specific antigen (PSA) < 4 ng/mL was driven by the absence of PC death, providing evidence to support a distinct biology in low PSA-producing, unfavorable-risk PC that is docetaxel-sensitive.”

In this JAMA Oncology Narrative Review, the authors attempt to discover whether cardiovascular risks may be associated with the multimodal approach, including systemic therapies and breast radiotherapy (RT), in treating breast cancer patients. Although recent advancements in breast cancer treatment have led to a decrease in mortality rates, the prevalence of survivors with a potentially high CV disease risk has increased.
