Plain language summary Patients with prostate cancer have the highest 5-year survival rate, which increases the risk for developing second primary malignancies (SPMs). The effect of radiotherapy (RT) for SPMs is controversial among prostate cancer survivors. This study analyzed a mass of prostate cancer patients from a public database to compare risk for SPMs between RT and non-RT groups. RT indeed increased certain categories of SPM and intensive surveillance should be considered.
