CRA4504 Background: The impact of radiotherapy on overall survival (OS) in men with locally advanced CaP is unclear. The SPCG-7 trial recently showed a benefit to RT for CaP specific mortality. Our primary objective was to assess the effect of RT on OS when added to lifelong ADT in men with locally advanced CaP. Methods: Patients with T3/T4 (1057) or T2, PSA > 40 μ g/l (119) or T2 PSA > 20 μ g/l and Gleason ≥ 8 (25) and N0 /NX, M0 prostate adenocarcinoma were randomized to lifelong ADT (bilateral orchiectomy or LHRH agonist) with or without RT (65-69 Gy to prostate ± seminal vesicles with or without 45Gy to pelvic nodes). The primary endpoint was OS and secondary endpoints included disease specific survival (DSS), time to disease progression and quality of life. Results: 1205 patients were randomized from 1995 to 2005, 602 to ADT and 603 to ADT+RT (well balanced with respect to baseline characteristics). A protocol specified second interim analysis on OS was performed in Aug 2009 (data cut-off Dec 31 2008). The DSMC recommended release of the results to the Trial Committee for publication. The median follow-up is 6.0 years and 320 patients have died (175 ADT and 145 ADT+RT). 10% of patients had no follow-up data beyond 2006. The addition of RT to ADT significantly reduced the risk of death (hazard ratio [HR] 0.77, 95% CI 0.61-0.98, p=0.033). 140 patients died of disease and/or treatment (89 on ADT and 51 on ADT+RT) The disease specific survival HR was 0.57 (95% CI 0.41-0.81, p=0.001) favoring ADT+RT. The 10 year cumulative disease specific death rates were estimated at 15% with ADT+ RT and 23% with ADT alone. Grade ≥2 late GI toxicity rates were similar in both arms (proctitis, 1.3% ADT alone, 1.8% ADT+RT). Conclusions: The trial results indicate a substantial overall survival and disease specific survival benefit for the combined modality approach (ADT+RT) in the management of patients with locally advanced prostate cancer with no significant increase in late treatment toxicity. In view of this data combined modality therapy (ADT+RT) should be the standard treatment approach for these patients. Supported by NCI-US Grant #5U10CA077202-12, CCSRI Grant #15469.

Purpose Diabetes is associated with lower risk of prostate cancer. Most men with diabetes are obese, and obesity is associated with greater prostate cancer mortality. Whether diabetes influences outcomes after prostate cancer diagnosis is unknown. Patients and Methods We assessed the relationship between prevalent diabetes and mortality using data from Radiation Therapy Oncology Group Protocol 92-02, a large randomized trial of men (N = 1,554) treated with radiation therapy and short-term versus long-term adjuvant goserelin for locally advanced prostate cancer. Regression and proportional hazard models were performed to evaluate relationships between prevalent diabetes and all-cause mortality, prostate cancer mortality, and non–prostate cancer mortality. Covariates included age, race, tumor stage, Gleason score, prostate-specific antigen, weight, and treatment arm. Results There were a total of 765 deaths; 210 (27%) were attributed to prostate cancer. In univariate analyses, prevalent diabetes was associated with greater all-cause mortality and non–prostate cancer mortality but not prostate cancer mortality. After controlling for other covariates, prevalent diabetes remained significantly associated with greater all-cause mortality and non–prostate cancer mortality (hazard ratio [HR] = 2.12; 95% CI, 1.69 to 2.66; P < .0001) but not prostate cancer mortality (HR = 0.80; 95% CI, 0.51 to 1.25; P = .34). In contrast, weight was associated with greater prostate cancer mortality (HR = 1.77; 95% CI, 1.22 to 2.55; P = .002) but not all-cause or non–prostate cancer mortality. Conclusion Weight but not prevalent diabetes is associated with greater prostate cancer mortality in men receiving combined modality treatment for locally advanced disease. These observations suggest that the association between obesity and greater prostate cancer mortality is mediated by mechanism(s) other than the characteristic metabolic alterations of diabetes.
