"This study represents positive long term outcomes of CyberKnife SBRT for intermediate-risk prostate patients, further supporting the value of this patient centric technique," said Omar Dawood, M.D., M.P.H., senior vice president of global medical affairs for Accuray. "These results add to the rapidly maturing strong foundation of published clinical evidence for CyberKnife prostate SBRT and further support the need to create head to head evidence to compare outcomes of this treatment with surgery and conventionally fractionated radiation treatments as is underway in the recently launched PACE study. We look forward to the outcomes of the PACE study, which aims to build upon these results and further support CyberKnife SBRT as a potential gold standard for the treatment for patients with organ confined prostate cancer."
