172 Background: Aldo-keto reductase family 1 member C3 (AKR1C3) is a key steroidogenic enzyme that is implicated in the development of castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC). In this study, we examined AKR1C3 expression in surgical specimens of high risk prostate cancer treated with neoadjuvant LHRH + EMP, and we investigate the correlation between the expression level of AKR1C3 and the occurrence of CRPC. Methods: High-risk Pca was defined by the D’Amico stratification system. A total of 103 patients with high-risk Pca were enrolled in this study. The LHRH + EMP therapy included the administration of the LHRH agonist and 280 mg/day of EMP for six months before the radical prostatectomy. BCR was defined as the prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels greater than 0.2 ng/mL after the prostatectomy. Castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) is defined by PSA or radiographic progression in the castrate levels of testosterone ( < 50 ng/dL). Along with the routine pathological assessment, AKR1C3 expression was evaluated in tissue microarray analysis (TMA) in all patients. A multivariable Cox proportional hazards model was used to evaluate the association between CRPC and clinical data. Results: The average patient age was 67.2 (49 to 78), and the median initial PSA level was 18.8 ng/mL (4.2–95.6). At a median follow-up period of 79.5 months, BCR occurred in 41 patients (39.8%) and CRPC occurred in nine patients (8.7%). In TMA, overexpression of AKR1C3 was seemed in 14 patients (13.6%). 5-year CRPC free survival rate of AKR1C3(+) patients (64.2%) was significantly lower than that of AKR1C3(-) patients (97.6%). (Log-rank test: p < 0.001) On multivariable analysis, AKR1C3 expression is an independent risk factor for occurrence of CRPC in this study. (p = 0.044). Conclusions: Although the present study was small and preliminary, overexpression of AKR1C3 is an independent risk factor for occurrence of CRPC in the high risk prostate cancer treated with neoadjuvant LHRH + EMP and prostatectomy. Further study is warranted to elucidate its clinical significance.

251 Background: Interstitial fibrosis (IF) have been known to occur in radical prostatectomy specimens treated with hormonal therapy. We previously reported that neoadjuvant therapy for high-risk prostate cancer (Pca) with luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LHRH) agonist and low-dose estramustine phosphate (EMP) (LHRH + EMP) significantly improved biochemical recurrence (BCR) free survival. In this study, we quantified IF in radical prostatectomy specimens treated with neoadjuvant LHRH + EMP, and we examined whether degree of IF has impact on BCR free survival or subsequent castration-resistant status. Methods: High-risk Pca was defined by the D’Amico stratification system. A total of 103 patients with high-risk Pca were enrolled in this study from July 2005 to August 2010. The LHRH + EMP therapy included the administration of the LHRH agonist and 280 mg/day of EMP for six months before the radical prostatectomy. BCR was defined as the prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels greater than 0.2 ng/mL after the prostatectomy. Castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) is defined by PSA or radiographic progression in the castrate levels of testosterone (< 50 ng/dL). A quantitative analysis of IF was performed using computer-assisted imaging. Results: The average patient age was 67.2 (49 to 78), and the median initial PSA level was 18.8 ng/mL (4.2–95.6). All patients completed six months of LHRH + EMP neoadjuvant therapy with no delays in the radical prostatectomy. At a median follow-up period of 64.0 months, BCR occurred in 41 patients (39.8%) and CRPC occurred in nine patients (8.7%). The average IF rate was 0.43 (0.33–0.55). The five year BCR-free survival rates for the groups with IF rates less than 0.42 and greater than 0.42 were 74.7% and 50.0%, respectively. The log-rank test was significantly different between the two groups (p = 0.010). We could not identify CRPC in the patients with IF rates less than 0.42. Conclusions: Although the present study was small and preliminary, the IF rate may have a predictive potential for biochemical outcome and the occurrence of CRPC after neoadjuvant therapy for high-risk Pca. Further study is warranted to elucidate its clinical significance.

e543 Background: The optimal treatment for high-risk prostate cancer (Pca) remains to be established. We previously reported favorable biochemical recurrence-free survival (BRFS) in high-risk Pca patients treated with neoadjuvant therapy comprising a luteinizing-hormone-releasing hormone (LHRH) agonist plus low-dose estramustine phosphate (EMP) (LHRH+EMP) followed by radical prostatectomy (RP). The aim of this study was to assess whether neoadjuvant LHRH+EMP confers an oncological benefit for high-risk Pca compared to extended lymph node dissection (e-PLND). Methods: The Michinoku Urological Cancer Study Group database contained the data of 2403 consecutive Pca patients treated with RP at 4 institutes between March 2000 and December 2014. In the e-PLND group, we identified 238 high-risk Pca patients who underwent RP and e-PLND, with lymphatic tissue removal around the obturator and the external iliac regions, and hypogastric lymph node dissection. The neoadjuvant therapy with limited PLND (l-PLND) group included 280 high-risk Pca patients who underwent RP and removal of the obturator node chain between September 2005 and June 2014 at Hirosaki University. The neoadjuvant LHRH+EMP therapy included the administration of 280 mg/day of LHRH and EMP for 6 months before RP. The outcome measure was BRFS. Results: The 5-year BRFS rates for the neoadjuvant therapy with l-PLND group and e-PLND group were 84.9% and 54.7%, respectively ( P < 0.0001). The operative time was significantly longer in the e-PLND group compared to that of the neoadjuvant therapy with l-PLND group. Grade 3/4 surgery-related complications were not identified in both groups. Conclusions: Although the present study was not randomized, neoadjuvant LHRH+EMP therapy followed by RP might reduce the risk of biochemical recurrence.
