Abstract

There are a variety of options that can be utilized in the detection, prevention, and treatment of prostate cancer. This chapter focuses specifically on postoperative radiotherapy and its use in both the adjuvant and salvage setting following radical prostatectomy. Indications for the utilization of prostate cancer genomic biomarkers are also reviewed. The utility of genomic biomarkers in prostate cancer early diagnosis and long-term outcomes are discussed. Finally, the ability of biomarkers to influence management decisions and assist in the prevention of overtreatment is explored.
