At
#ASTRO2026, a collection of new research will explore how genomic information can help clarify pivotal treatment decisions for patients with cancer.
As a key example, join us for an oral presentation from Angela Jia, M.D., Ph.D., that aims to answer a key question:
Which individuals with intermediate-risk prostate cancer are most likely to benefit from short-term androgen-deprivation therapy when receiving dose-escalated radiotherapy?
In an ancillary analysis of the landmark Phase III NRG/RTOG 0815 clinical trial, Dr. Jia will present findings on whether the Decipher® Prostate Genomic Classifier test can help predict which patients are most likely to benefit from adding short-term androgen deprivation to dose-escalated radiotherapy.

📄 Abstract: #312
📅 Date/Time: Tuesday, September 29, 3:55–4:05 p.m. ET
📍 Location: Room 210
We’re also looking forward to additional ASTRO 2026 presentations examining treatment intensification and the role of transcriptomic biomarkers in prostate cancer radiation therapy treatment decisions.
