Ganglioside Increases Metastatic Potential and Susceptibility of Prostate Cancer to Gene Therapy in vitro
DownloadFall 2009
Prostate cancer (CaP) is the 2nd most common cancer in North American men. Tumour management strategies are appropriate for early stage disease, but advanced disease has a poor prognosis and requires prompt treatment. Therefore, research into delay of tumour progression and efficacious treatment...

Impact of conventional fractionated RT to pelvic lymph nodes and dose-escalated hypofractionated RT to prostate gland using IMRT treatment delivery in high-risk prostate cancer
DownloadFall 2009
Prostate cancer is the most common cancer among Canadian men. The standard treatment in high-risk category is radical radiation, with androgen suppression treatment (AST). Significant disease progression is reported despite this approach. Radiation dose escalation has been shown to improve...
