Abstract excerpt
IMPORTANCE: The variant HSD3B1 (1245C) allele enhances dihydrotestosterone synthesis and predicts resistance to androgen-deprivation therapy (ADT) for biochemically recurrent prostate cancer after prostatectomy and for metastatic disease. Whether this is true after radiotherapy is unknown. OBJECTIVE: To determine whether the HSD3B1 (1245C) allele predicts worse clinical outcomes from ADT for biochemical...
