Shortened hormone therapy did not reduce survival of patients with high-risk prostate cancer

Patients with high-risk prostate cancer who received 18 months of hormone therapy lived as long as patients who underwent 36 months of therapy, according to results of a phase 3 study presented at the Genitourinary Cancers Symposium.Standard treatment for men diagnosed with high-risk prostate cancer consists of radiotherapy plus hormone therapy, also called androgen blockade therapy, for 24 to 36 months. Many side effects associated with androgen blockade therapy worsen over the course of treatment.
