People with low to medium-risk, localised prostate cancer can be treated as effectively using fewer and higher doses of radiation therapy delivered over five treatment sessions as they can with lower doses delivered over several weeks, according to researchers from The Royal Marsden NHS Foundation Trust and The Institute of Cancer Research, London.

Treatment times for radiotherapy could be reduced for some early breast cancer patients, according to the IMPORT HIGH trial.

Two key proteins linked to cell division can reliably predict disease recurrence in prostate cancer after radiotherapy treatment, according to new research.
