14 Mar Dr Helen Saxby’s Presentation
Following on from Dr Helen Saxby’s talk to the members on 8th February, below is a summary of her presentation together with a link to her Powerpoint slides.
“It’s an exciting time for prostate radiotherapy with new national clinical trials open at Torbay Hospital Oncology Center. We are currently recruiting to the Pivotal Boost Trial which aims to improve the effectiveness of treatment by giving a higher dose of radiotherapy to the area within the prostate where the tumour is located. We are also working to open the PACE-NODES trial investigating the use of stereotactic abative body radiotherapy in the treatment of prostate cancer and pelvic lymph nodes; thus reducing from 37 to 5 treatments”
