"Our clinical trial is the first to show a longer time to biochemical recurrence with chemotherapy plus standard hormone therapy for patients with locally advanced, high-risk prostate cancer," says Jiahua Pan, MD.

"The new results show that the 3-step method now used produces fewer insignificant cancer diagnoses than PSA screening,” says Anssi Auvinen, MD, PhD.
