Abstract
- This exploratory study evaluates immunological changes in high-risk Gleason 9 prostate cancer patients treated with EBRT+BT compared to EBRT alone. Notably, BT demonstrates the potential to elicit a T cell response which may support further investigation using circulating immune cells as predictive and prognostic biomarkers for radiotherapy response.
