About
Dr. Malika Danner is a radiation oncologist whose research centers on optimizing stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) for prostate cancer, with a particular focus on treatment outcomes, side-effect management, and quality of life. Her work has made significant contributions to understanding how SBRT can be used as a less-invasive alternative to brachytherapy for unfavorable prostate cancer, demonstrating promising five-year outcomes when combined with intensity-modulated radiation therapy. Dr. Danner has also advanced the field by investigating the management of isolated local failures following SBRT, providing critical guidance for salvage treatment strategies. Her research extends to patient-reported outcomes, where she has closely examined the relationship between testosterone recovery and improvements in hormonal and sexual function after short-course androgen deprivation therapy. Additionally, she has explored bothersome side effects such as hot flashes and late radiation-related lymphopenia, contributing to a more comprehensive understanding of treatment tolerability. With her most-cited papers accumulating over a dozen citations, Dr. Danner’s work is shaping clinical practice by refining SBRT protocols and enhancing the patient experience through evidence-based management of treatment-related toxicities.
