142 Background: Evidence from large observational studies suggests that men with prostate cancer have a higher risk of cardiovascular events due to accelerated atherosclerosis linked to androgen deprivation therapy (ADT). Adults > 70 years of age have poorer outcomes from cancer treatment in the UK. However, it is not yet clear what might be contributing to poorer outcomes among older men with prostate cancer. Thus the purpose of this study was to assess the health and fitness of a cohort of prostate cancer survivors, from 2 regions in the UK, and identify factors that may influence cardiovascular health. Methods: Baseline assessments from 83 men with prostate cancer with no evidence of distant disease particpated. Men undertook a Cardiopulmonary Exercise Test (CPET), sit to stand, step test, grip strength, hip to waist ratio, self-reported exercise questionnaire (Godin), and co-morbidity index. Men were 1-3 years post diagnosis. Age-group comparisons were made using analysis of covariance against cardiac risk profile (QRisk2). Results: Men who were older ( > 75) were more likely to have poorer cardiopulmonary fitness, as measured by VO2 Peak , and worse grip strength than age standardised values. Increased obesity across all groups (raised BMI) and higher B/P all contributed to a raised QRisk2 (mean: 36.9±6.1), which is higher than men of a similar age. Older men perceived themselves to be less physically active and were more likely to be on ADT. Conclusions: In our sample, men older than 75 had greater CVD risk, poorer physical function and lower strength. Improvements in diet and physical activity could improve physical function and reduce cardiovascular risk factors. Older men were more likely to be on ADT so to reduce long term co-morbidities other risk factors need to be addressed. More comprehensive functional health assessment at point of treatment could help clinicians optimise therapy to reduce long term comorbidities. [Table: see text]
