1 Definitive for Low Risk Prostate Cancer Howard Sandler, MD, MS Bloom Family Chair in Cancer Therapeutics Cedar-Sinai Medical Center All about dose and dose matters, probably Although hormones may matter more PTV TCP OAR NTCP IGRT RTOG 9406 Tucker IJROBP 78:1253, 2010 Tucker IJROBP 78:1253,

2 Observed toxicity vs. NTCP Comparisons between modalities Without randomization, there are concerns about bias and selection factors Challenges with endpoints (PSA, DM, OS, PRO) Changes over time Learning curves Tucker IJROBP 78:1253, 2010 Final Four AS SBRT Sanda NEJM 358:1250,

3 vs. SBRT Final Four SBRT dose is highly model dependent SBRT is less forgiving Limited follow-up and data Until phase III data emerges: AS Winner is SBRT AS vs. Final Four Low risk prostate cancer Hard to determine a priori A matter of numbers (NNT) Emerging data from Swedish randomized trial suggests survival advantage is broad based AS Winner SBRT 3
