4509 Background: Data from the SPCG-7 study and interim analysis of this trial have demonstrated an overall survival (OS) benefit for RT when added to ADT. We present the protocol specified final analysis of PR3/PR07. Methods: Patients with locally advanced (T3/T4, N0/NX, n=1057) or organ-confined prostate cancer (T2,N0/NX, with either PSA > 40 μg/l or PSA > 20 μg/l and Gleason > 8, n=144) were randomized to lifelong ADT (bilateral orchiectomy or LHRH agonist) or ADT + RT (65-69 Gy to prostate + seminal vesicles with or without 45Gy to pelvic nodes). The primary outcome measure was OS; secondary outcomes included disease-specific survival (DSS), time to disease progression and quality of life. Final analysis was planned after 421 deaths. Results: 1,205 patients were randomized from 1995-2005, 602 to ADT alone and 603 to ADT+RT (well balanced with respect to baseline characteristics). The median follow-up is 8.0 years and 465 patients have died (260 ADT, 205 ADT+RT). Adding RT to ADT significantly reduced the risk of death (Hazard Ratio 0.70, 95% CI 0.57-0.85, p=0.001). 199 patients died of disease and/or treatment (134 on ADT alone and 65 on ADT+RT). Competing risk analysis demonstrated that patients on the ADT alone arm had a significantly higher chance of dying of disease related causes than those treated with ADT+RT (10 year cumulative disease specific death rates 15% with ADT+ RT, 26% with ADT alone, p<0.0001). The addition of RT to ADT had a small detrimental effect on late gastrointestinal toxicity and health-related quality-of-life (> grade II proctitis, 0.3% ADT alone, 1.0% ADT+RT; mean change EORTC Rectal symptoms -0.3 ADT vs 1.7 ADT + RT, p=0.54). Conclusions: Mature data indicate a sustained and substantial overall survival and disease specific survival benefit for ADT+RT in the management of patients with locally advanced prostate cancer with minimal increase in late treatment toxicity. The benefits of combined modality treatment should be discussed with all patients.
