About
Marilyn Ayoob is a dedicated clinical researcher in radiation oncology, with a focused expertise in the treatment of prostate cancer using stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT). Her work centers on optimizing outcomes for patients with low to intermediate and unfavorable risk disease, exploring innovative strategies such as combining SBRT with intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) as a less-invasive alternative to brachytherapy. Ayoob’s contributions are particularly notable for their patient-centered approach; she has investigated the management of isolated local failures following SBRT and closely examined the impact of androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) on quality of life. Her studies on testosterone recovery and its correlation with improvements in patient-reported hormonal and sexual function, as well as the burden of bothersome hot flashes, provide critical insights into the real-world experiences of men undergoing combined modality treatment. With several highly cited papers published between 2019 and 2024, Ayoob’s work is shaping the conversation around balancing cancer control with survivorship, making her a valuable voice for students and researchers interested in the evolving landscape of prostate radiotherapy.
