“…In addition to medical factors, physician practice patterns and patient preferences influence the relationship between disease recurrence and additional treatment [18,19]. Increased frequency among black patients of posttreatment assessments of black patients or a greater propensity to institute therapy in black patients once biochemical progression is noted could partly account for the results we found.…”

“…Prostate cancer is the most common invasive cancer diagnosed in men and the second leading cause of male cancer-associated mortality in the United States (US) [ 1 ]. The majority (79%) of patients with prostate cancer are diagnosed at a localised stage [ 2 ], which is potentially curable using radical prostatectomy, external beam radiotherapy (EBRT), or brachytherapy [ 3 ]. However, about 35% to 60% of men undergoing the initial curative effort will experience disease recurrence [ 4 , 5 , 6 ].…”

“…Approximately 79% of patients with prostate cancer are diagnosed at a localized stage based on the Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results Program (SEER) data [ 3 ]. Therapeutic options such as radical prostatectomy, external beam radiotherapy (EBRT) or brachytherapy are primarily recommended for men with localized curative prostate cancer [ 4 ]. Despite initial curative effort by radical prostatectomy for localized disease, approximately 35% of men will experience a biochemical recurrence [ 5 ], and a higher recurrence rate of 40–60% has been witnessed after EBRT or brachytherapy [ 6 , 7 ].…”
