Purpose There has been growing interest in the potential anticancer activity of statins based
on preclinical evidence of their antiproliferative, proapoptotic, and radiosensitizing
properties. The primary objective of this study was to determine whether statin use is
associated with improved clinical outcomes in patients treated with radiotherapy (RT) for
prostate cancer.
