4 Background: After a median observation time of 7.6 years, Scandinavian Prostate Cancer Group VII randomized trial showed a significant 12% reduction of prostate cancer-specific mortality in patients with locally advanced or histologically aggressive prostate cancer who received three months of total androgen blockade followed by radiotherapy and continuous antiandrogen therapy compared to patients with hormonal treatment only (Widmark et al :Lancet [2009]; 373,1174). Here we provide the 10 (15)-year survival results after a median observation time of 10.7 years. Methods: Between February 1996 and December 2002, 875 patients with locally advanced prostate cancer were randomized (Randomization ratio 1:1). Primary endpoint was prostate cancer-specific survival analyzed by intention to treat. This updated analysis is based on death registry data of the Norwegian patients (2/3 of the population), and on data recorded in CRF database available for the Swedish patients. A Swedish death registry analysis is underway, and will be included in the final analysis at the meeting. Results: Prostate cancer death occurred in 118 out of 439 of the antiandrogen treatment group and in 45 out of 436 men in the combination treatment group (p< 0.0001), with death due to any cause in 210 out of 439 and 161 out of 436 men (p=0.0006), respectively. The 10 (15) year cumulative prostate cancer-specific mortality was more than halved after combined treatment: 18.9% (30.7%) and 8.3% (12.4%) (HR=0.35;[p<4.1E-10 for 15 year results]), and overall mortality was 35.3% (56.7%) and 26.4% (43.4%) (HR=0.70; P=0.0006 for 15 year results), respectively. Conclusions: Addition of local radiotherapy to hormonal treatment in patients with non-metastatic locally advanced or high-risk prostate cancer more than halved the 10 and 15 year prostate cancer-specific mortality and substantially decreased overall mortality.

e16004 Background: Men receiving high dose external beam radiotherapy (EBRT) and androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) for high risk prostate cancer (HRPC) have other competing causes of mortality, however predictive schema do not account for patient-related co-morbidities. We aim to create nomograms estimating all-cause mortality (ACM) and prostate cancer-specific mortality (PCSM) in this population. Methods: 660 patients with HRPC defined by NCCN guidelines were treated with EBRT ≥74 Gy and ADT from 1996-2009. The probabilities of death from prostate cancer and other causes were estimated by cumulative incidence function. Multivariable Cox proportional hazards regression and competing risks regression analyses were used for modeling ACM and PCSM respectively. Deaths from other causes were treated as competing risks for PCSM. Missing values in the predictors were multiply imputed before conducting multivariable regression analysis. Variables investigated were age, clinical T stage, prostate specific antigen (PSA), Gleason score, race, family history, duration of ADT, body mass index (BMI), Charlson co-morbidity index score, coronary artery disease, and smoking pack-years. The stepdown method was used to make parsimonious models based on the rank of the predictive ability of each variable with respect to each endpoint. The final nomograms were internally validated by assessing the discrimination and calibration with bootstrap resamples. Results: At last follow up, there were 199 deaths. The 10-year cumulative incidence of death from prostate cancer was 14% and from other causes was 26%. The variables that predicted for 10-year ACM included age, PSA, BMI, Charlson score, and smoking pack-years. The ACM nomogram achieved a concordance index of 0.672. The variables that predicted for PCSM included Gleason score, PSA, race, and duration of ADT. The nomogram concordance index for PCSM was 0.673. The calibrations for both ACM and PCSM appear reasonable. Conclusions: We have developed nomograms that predict for ACM and PCSM in men with aggressive prostate cancer and competing risks of death. External validation may be useful.

e550 Background: Androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) is a mainstay accompaniment of external beam radiotherapy (EBRT) for treating high-risk prostate cancer (HPCaP). Both low dose-rate brachytherapy (LDR) as the sole method of radiotherapy and the need for ADT in conjunction with it are relatively unexplored with HRCaP. We present an inception cohort study of HRCaP patients treated with LDR alone with or without ADT. Methods: The study includes 515 patients with HRCaP according to NCCN guidelines. They were treated with I-125 LDR alone to a dose of 144 Gy with lateral, superior, and inferior margins of at least 5 mm (medin D90 = 149.39 Gy). The association of prostate cancer-specific mortality (PCSM) with pre-treatment variables was assessed with Fine and Gray regression with non-PCSM mortality treated as a competing event. PCSM rates were calculated using the cumulative incidence method. Results: The median age is 70 years. The median f/u is 48.9 months. Fifty-four percent were Gleason 7, 28% were Gleason 8, and 11% were Gleason 9. Fifty-three percent received ADT for a median duration of 6 months (range = 1-32 months). At 5 years, the PCSM rate was 1.2 % for LDR and 4.2% for LDR + ADT, and at 10 years, the PCSM rate for LDR was 3.3% and 4.2% for LDR + ADT (p = 0.34). Table 1 shows the association of pre-treatment factors with PCSM. Conclusions: ADT does not affect PCSM for HRCaP patients. Further studies should be done to explore if ADT is necessary with LDR for HRCaP. [Table: see text]
