Project description

Prostate cancer patients being confronted with a limited nodal recurrence are generally treated with palliative lifelong systemic androgen deprivation therapy with an important negative impact on the quality of life. The current study wants to establish a new standard of care for these patients exploring the potential of local treatments, improving progression-free survival and quality of life.
