A meta-analysis explores whether there’s a survival benefit to adding hormone therapy to postoperative radiation for patients with low PSA levels.

However, men with higher PSA levels did show modest improvements in survival, suggesting that hormone therapy might be worthwhile for them. PSA (prostate-specific antigen) is produced by the prostate ...
