Scientists probe why prostate cancer treatments fail

NCT ID NCT00160979

Summary

This study investigated whether low oxygen levels in prostate tumors make them harder to treat. Researchers measured oxygen in tumors of 186 men before they started radiation therapy. The goal was to see if low oxygen predicts whether cancer will spread or become resistant to hormone therapy, to guide future treatments.
