Abstract 1813
Background
Few studies have compared long-term patient reported AEs of men with Prostate Cancer (PCa) treated with dose-escalation by means of BT/RT to RT (70-78 Gy) alone. In this study, we compare AEs and quality of life (QoL) between these two treatment modalities.
Methods
259 eligible men from the BT/RT cohort (2004-2011) and 123 patients (2009-2010) from a RT cohort assessed their AEs and QoL by questionnaires a minimum of 5 years after treatment. Hormonal therapy was given for 1-2 years. EPIC-26 covered urinary, sexual and bowel function and bother. The hormone domain was excluded. The SF-12 questionnaire covered QoL. The scores ranged from 0 (worst) to 100 (best). Clinical significance was set to a score difference > 10 points. Statistical significance was evaluated by Student t-test with significance level p < 0.05. Chronic fatigue was reported as percentage.
Results
Median age at survey was 74 years for both cohorts. The EPIC-26 and SF12 scores for the above domains were similar in the two cohorts with no clinical or statistical significance (Table). Chronic fatigue was higher after treatment with RT compared BT/RT, although not significantly.Table: 853P
Measure | BT/RT Mean (SD) | RT Mean (SD) | P value |
---|---|---|---|
Sexual function | 27.9 (29.5) n = 255 | 20.8 (24.3) n = 120 | 0.06 |
Sexual bother | 48.2 (37.5) n = 254 | 45.9 (34.7) n = 121 | 0.56 |
Urinary function | 83.6 (18.0) n = 258 | 80.1 (20.5) n = 123 | 0.10 |
Urinary irritation/obstruction | 81.3 (19.6) n = 249 | 81.8 (16.8) n = 113 | 0.80 |
Urinary incontinence | 88.7 (18.1) n = 258 | 85.0 (22.5) n = 123 | 0.11 |
Urinary bother | 79.9 (26.5) n = 257 | 77.6 (30.0) n = 123 | 0.47 |
Bowel function | 86.7 (20.6) n = 254 | 83.1 (21.7) n = 121 | 0.12 |
Bowel bother | 83.0 (25.1) n = 258 | 80.4 (26.7) n = 121 | 0.34 |
PCS12 (SF12) | 46.4 (10.5) n = 224 | 45.1 (10.1) n = 101 | 0.30 |
MCS12 (SF12) | 53.6 (8.0) n = 224 | 52.7 (9.2) n = 101 | 0.38 |
Chronic fatigue | 22.0% n = 199 | 27.1% n = 86 | 0.28 |
Conclusions
Dose-escalation by means of BT/RT does not increase the AEs reported for the urinary, bowel and sexual domains of EPIC-26 or health-related QoL. Hence, BT/RT is a good treatment option for eligible patients.
