مستخلص: Study Type - Therapy (practice patterns) Level of Evidence 2b What's known on the subject? and What does the study add? The treatment of locally advanced prostate cancer varies widely even though there is level one evidence supporting the use of multimodality therapy as compared with monotherapy. This study defines treatment patterns of locally advanced prostate cancer within the United States and identifies predicators of who receives multimodality therapy rather than monotherapy. OBJECTIVE To identify treatment patterns and predictors of receiving multimodality therapy in patients with locally advanced prostate cancer (LAPC). [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
