Where this comes from

Abstract

After radical prostatectomy, adjuvant therapy should be used sparingly when prostate-specific antigen (PSA) is undetectable. Instead, early salvage therapy is recommended for PSA recurrence. Patients with PSA persistence after prostatectomy are at high risk and should be offered consolidative therapy.
