Abstract:The detection of prostate cancer recurrence after external beam radiotherapy relies on the measurement of a sustained rise of serum prostate-specific antigen (PSA). However, this biochemical relapse may take years to occur, thereby delaying the delivery of a secondary treatment to patients with recurring tumors. To address this issue, here we propose to use patient-specific forecasts of PSA dynamics to early predict biochemical relapse. Our forecasts are based on mechanistic models of prostate cancer response … Show more
