Early Salvage Therapy for Patients With Advanced Features for Biochemical Relapse After Radical Prostatectomy for Localized Prostate Carcinoma In Correlation With Supposed Molecular-genetic Parameters of Higher Aggressiveness
Pathologically confirmed invasive prostate carcinoma with minimal 1 risk factor (RF) after radical prostatectomy (RP)
