- Title
Hormone Therapy Can Wait in PSA-Only Relapse.
- Authors
Schmidt, Charlie
- Abstract
The article discusses reasons to delay androgen-deprivation therapy among patients who experienced a sudden increase in their prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels, a biochemical relapse observed in up to 60,000 men in the U.S. Topics discussed include the findings of researcher Xabier Garcia-Albeniz's paper on when is the best time to start ADT after biochemical relapse and how it supports claims that there is no need to rush treatment among most people.
