## Abstract ## Background Geneβdirected enzyme prodrug therapy (GDEPT) based on the __E. coli__ enzyme purine nucleoside phosphorylase (PNP) represents a new approach for treating slow growing tumours like prostate cancer (PCa). Expressed enzyme converts a systemically administered prodrug, fludar
## Background: Clinical research of prostate carcinoma could be enhanced by models that allow early and reliable prediction of outcome. in this study, the authors describe a model-building strategy and compare different models. ## Methods: The sample population was comprised of 158 patients treat
