Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE To report biochemical control associated with single fraction 15 Gy high-dose-rate brachytherapy (HDR-BT) boost followed by external beam radiation (EBRT) in patients with intermediate-risk prostate cancer. MATERIALS AND METHODS A retrospective chart review of all patients with intermediate-risk disease treated with a real-time ultrasound-based 15 Gy HDR-BT boost followed by EBRT between 2009 and 2016 at a single quaternary cancer center was performed. Freedom from biochemical failure (FFBF), cumulative incidence of androgen deprivation therapy use for biochemical or clinical failure post-treatment (CI of ADT) and metastasis-free survival (MFS) outcomes were measured. RESULTS 518 patients met the inclusion criteria for this study. Median age at HDR-BT was 67 years (IQR 61-72). 506 (98%) had complete pathologic information available. Of these, 146 (28%) had favorable (FIR) and 360 (69%) had unfavorable (UIR) intermediate-risk disease. 83 (16%) received short course hormones with EBRT + HDR. Median overall follow-up was 5.2 years. FFBF was 91 (88-94)% at 5 years. Five-year FFBF was 94 (89-99)% and 89 (85-94)% in FIR and UIR patients, respectively (p = 0.045). CI of ADT was 4 (2-6)% at 5 years. Five-year CI of ADT was 1 (0-3)% and 5 (2-8)% in FIR and UIR patients, respectively (p = 0.085). MFS was 97 (95-98)% at 5 years. Five-year MFS was 100 (N/A-100)% and 95 (92-98)% in FIR and UIR patients, respectively (p = 0.020). CONCLUSION In this large cohort of intermediate-risk prostate cancer patients, 15 Gy HDR-BT boost plus EBRT results in durable biochemical control and low rates of ADT use for biochemical failure.

Abstract
AIMS We conducted a pooled analysis of four prospective stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) trials of low- and intermediate-risk prostate cancer to evaluate the incidence of prostate-specific antigen (PSA) bounce and its correlation with the time-dose-fraction schedule. The correlation between bounce with PSA response at 4 years (nadir PSA < 0.4 ng/ml) and biochemical failure-free survival (BFFS) was also explored. MATERIALS AND METHODS The study included four treatment groups: 35 Gy/five fractions once per week (QW) (TG-1; n = 84); 40 Gy/five fractions QW (TG-2; n = 100); 40 Gy/five fractions every other day (TG-3; n = 73); and 26 Gy/two fractions QW (TG-4; n = 30). PSA bounce was defined as a rise in PSA by 0.2 ng/ml (nadir + 0.2) or 2 ng/ml (nadir + 2.0) above nadir followed by a decrease back to nadir. Patients with fewer than three follow-up PSA tests were excluded from the pooled analysis. RESULTS In total, 287 patients were included, with a median follow-up of 5.0 years. The pooled 5-year cumulative incidence of bounce by nadir + 2.0 was 8%. The 2-year cumulative incidences of PSA bounce by nadir + 0.2 were 28.9, 21, 19.6 and 16.7% (P = 0.12) and by nadir + 2.0 were 7.2, 8, 2.7 and 6.7% (P = 0.32) for TG-1 to TG-4, respectively. Multivariable analysis revealed that for nadir + 2.0, pre-treatment PSA (odds ratio 0.49; 95% confidence interval 0.26-0.97) correlated with PSA bounce. Although PSA bounce by nadir + 0.2 (odds ratio 0.10; 95% confidence interval 0.04-0.24) and nadir + 2.0 (odds ratio 0.29; 95% confidence interval 0.09-0.93) was associated with a lower probability of PSA response at 4 years, there was no association between bounce by nadir + 0.2 (hazard ratio 0.36; 95% confidence interval 0.08-1.74) or nadir + 2 (hazard ratio 1.77; 95% confidence interval 0.28-11.07) with BFFS. CONCLUSION The incidence of PSA bounce was independent of time-dose-fraction schedule for prostate SBRT. One in 13 patients experienced a bounce high enough to be misinterpreted as biochemical failure, and clinicians should avoid early salvage interventions in these patients. There was no association between PSA bounce and BFFS.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE To identify if, in intermediate risk prostate cancer (IR-PCa), the absolute percentage of biopsied tissue positive for pattern 4 disease (APP4) may be a predictor of outcome. MATERIALS AND METHODS 411 patients with IR-PCa were retrospectively reviewed. APP4 was calculated based on biopsy reports. Multivariable competing risk analysis was then performed on optimized APP4 cutpoints to predict for biochemical failure (BF), androgen deprivation use for BF (ADT-BF) and development of metastases (MD). RESULTS Median follow-up for the cohort was 5.2 (Inter Quartile Range: 2.9-6.6) years. Median baseline PSA was 7.3 (5.3-9.8) ng/mL. 234 (56.9%) patients had T1 and 177 (43.1%) had T2 disease. Median APP4 was 2.00 (0.75-7.50)%. 38 (9.3%) patients experienced BF. The optimal cutpoint of APP4 for BF was >3.3% with an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.66. 17 (4.1%) received ADT-BF. The ADT-BF cutpoint was >6.6% with an AUC of 0.72. Eight (2.0%) developed MD. The MD cutpoint was >17.5% with an AUC of 0.86. Using APP4 >3.3 vs ≤ 3.3, log-transformed baseline PSA ln(PSA) (HR 2.5, 1.1-6.1; p = 0.037) and APP4 (HR 2.3, 1.1-4.7; p = 0.031) predicted for BF. Using APP4 >6.6 vs ≤ 6.6, ln(PSA) (HR 4.2, 1.4-12.4; p = 0.010) and APP4 (HR 3.7, 1.4-10.0; p = 0.009) were predictive of ADT-BF. APP4 >17.5 vs ≤ 17.5 alone was predictive of MD (HR 25.7, 4.9-135.3; p < 0.001). CONCLUSION APP4 cutpoints of >3.3%, >6.6% and >17.5% were strongly associated with increased risk of BF, ADT-BF and developing MD respectively. These findings may inform future practice when treating IR-PCa but require external validation.

Abstract
This study shows the degradation of naphthalene (Nap) in aqueous solution using Oxone process mediated by Fe2+ with UV-A irradiation (FOU). To elucidate the role of different parameters, Fe2+/Oxone (FO), Fe2+/UV (FU), Oxone/UV (OU) and direct photolysis processes were studied, separately. The degradation efficiency under different dosage of Fe2+, Oxone, initial probe compound concentration and solution pH were evaluated. It is concluded that FOU process has significantly better degradation capacity and efficiency. More than 90% of 0.125 mM Nap was removed in 20 min, under the optimal conditions of FOU ([Fe2+]0 = 0.250 mM, [Oxone]0 = 0.250 mM, wavelength = 350 nm and pH = 2.8). A mathematical model is proposed to describe the two-stage reaction kinetics involving Oxone. To alleviate the problems of radical surge at the initial stage and a radical deficit at later stage, a stepwise addition of oxidants was conducted and achieved a higher removal performance. Besides, the decay pathways of Nap under FOU process were proposed by using LC-ESI/MS analysis. The TOC content was found to be increased initially and decreased after 2 h reaction. It is clarified that the TOC increment was contributed by the partially degraded intermediates rather than the persistent Nap, since the latter was not completely combustible in the TOC analyzer, demonstrating that the FOU process is effective in degrading Nap into more degradable products such naphthoic acids and aldehydes.
