PRO-BOOST-N: Prostate-First Versus Combined Prostate and Nodal Dose Escalation in PSMA PET-Staged Node-Positive Prostate Cancer
Patients with prostate cancer and pelvic lymph node involvement (cN1M0) identified on PSMA PET imaging represent a biologically aggressive yet potentially curable disease population. Contemporary management relies on multimodality treatment combining definitive radiotherapy to the prostate and pelvic lymph nodes with long-term androgen deprivation therapy (ADT), often intensified with androgen receptor pathway inhibitors. Despite these advances, a substantial proportion of patients still develop distant metastatic disease, highlighting the need to optimize local-regional treatment strategies i
