The real-world outcomes of patients with metastatic prostate cancer (mPCa) are largely unexplored. We investigated the improvements in overall survival (OS) and cancer-specific survival (CSS) in patients with de novo mPCa in latest years. The USA SEER Research Data (2000-2017) were analyzed using the SEER*Stat software. The Kaplan-Meier method and Cox regression were used. Patients with de novo mPCa were allocated to 3 cohorts based on year of diagnosis: A (2000-2003), B (2004-2010), C (2011-2014). Maximum follow-up was fixed to 5 years. Overall, 26434 patients were included. Age, race and metastatic stage significantly affected OS and CSS. After adjustment for age and race, patients in cohort C showed 9% reduced risk of death (HR:0.91 [95% CI, 0.87-0.95], p<0.001) and 8% reduced risk of cancer-specific death (HR:0.91 [95% CI, 0.87-0.95], p<0.001) compared to those in cohort A. After adjustment for age, race and metastatic stage, patients in cohort C showed an improvement in OS and CSS compared to cohort B (HR:0.94 [95% CI, 0.91-0.97], p=0.001 and HR:0.89 [95% CI, 0.85-0.92], p<0.001). Patients with M1c disease had a more pronounced improvement in OS and CSS compared with the other stages. No differences were found between cohort B and C. In conclusion, the prognosis of de novo mPCa remains poor with a median OS of 30 months and a median CSS of 35 months. Limited OS and CSS improvements were observed in latest years.

The real-world outcomes of patients with metastatic prostate cancer (mPCa) are largely unexplored. We investigated the trends in overall survival (OS) and cancer-specific survival (CSS) in patients with de novo mPCa according to distinct time periods. The U.S. Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) Research Data (2000–2017) were analyzed using the SEER*Stat software. The Kaplan–Meier method and Cox regression were used. Patients with de novo mPCa were allocated to three cohorts based on the year of diagnosis: A (2000–2003), B (2004–2010), and C (2011–2014). The maximum follow-up was fixed to 5 years. Overall, 26,434 patients were included. Age, race, and metastatic stage (M1) significantly affected OS and CSS. After adjustment for age and race, patients in Cohort C showed a 9% reduced risk of death (hazard ratio (HR): 0.91 (95% confidence interval [CI] 0.87–0.95), p < 0.001) and an 8% reduced risk of cancer-specific death (HR: 0.92 (95% CI 0.88–0.96), p < 0.001) compared with those in Cohort A. After adjustment for age, race, and metastatic stage, patients in Cohort C showed an improvement in OS and CSS compared with Cohort B (HR: 0.94 (95% CI 0.91–0.97), p = 0.001; HR: 0.89 (95% CI 0.85–0.92), p < 0.001). Patients with M1c disease had a more pronounced improvement in OS and CSS compared with the other stages. No differences were found between Cohorts B and C. In conclusion, the real-world survival of de novo mPCa remains poor, with a median OS and CSS improvement of only 4 months in the latest years.

48 Background: New drugs have become available for the treatment of metastatic prostate cancer (mPCa) during the last two decades. Here, we explored the clinical outcomes of de novo mPCa in 3 large cohorts of patients diagnosed in 3 treatment eras: pre-docetaxel 2000-2003 (T1), docetaxel 2004-2010 (T2) and new androgen-receptor signalling inhibitors (ARSi) + cabazitaxel 2011-2016 (T3). Methods: The USA Surveillance Epidemiology and End Results (SEER) Incidence Data were investigated using the SEER*Stat software. We used the Kaplan – Meier method, log-rank test, Cox regression, hazard ratio (HR) and confidence intervals (CI) to analyse overall survival (OS) and cancer-specific survival (CSS). The maximum follow-up time point was 5 years. Results: A total 34.034 patients with de novo mPCa were analysed for OS, of these 6.621 T1, 12.711 T2 and 14.702 T3. Median OS was 29 months (mo) [95% CI: 28.5-29.5], 28 mo [27.0-28.9], 28 mo [27.3-28.7] and 31 mo [30.2-31.8] in whole, T1, T2 and T3 cohorts, respectively. In the multivariable model, adjusted for age and race, T3 patients showed better OS compared to T1 and T2 patients (HR: 0,92 [95% CI: 0,88-0,95] and 0,92 [0,89 to 0,95], respectively, p<0.001). A total of 33.641 patients were analysed for CSS, of these 6.514 T1, 12.540 T2 and 14.587 T3. Median CSS was 36 mo [35.3-36.7], 34 mo [32.6-35.3], 34 mo [33.0-35.0] and 38 mo [36.9-39.1] in whole, T1, T2, T3 cohorts, respectively. T3 patients had better CSS compared to T1 and T2 patients (HR: 0,93 [0,89-0,97] and 0,92 [0,89 to 0,96], respectively, p<0.001). No difference in OS or CSS was found between T1 and T2 cohorts. Conclusions: The prognosis of patients with de novo mPCa remains poor, with a median CSS of 3 years and a 5-year CSS of 35%. Approximately 8% decrease in the risk of death was found in the era of ARSi and cabazitaxel. The recent intensification of therapy in metastatic hormone-sensitive setting might lead to better outcomes in the next years.[Table: see text]

IntroductionProstate cancer is a common malignancy in men that is difficult to treat and carries a high risk of death. miR-219-5p is expressed in reduced amounts in many malignancies. However, the prognostic value of miR-219-5p for patients with prostate cancer remains unclear.MethodsWe retrospectively analysed data from 213 prostate cancer patients from 10 June 2012 to 9 May 2015. Overall survival was assessed by Kaplan-Meier analysis and Cox regression models. Besides, a prediction model was constructed, and calibration curves evaluated the model’s accuracy.ResultsOf the 213 patients, a total of 72 (33.8%) died and the median survival time was 60.0 months. We found by multifactorial analysis that miR-219-5p deficiency increased the risk of death by nearly fourfold (HR: 3.86, 95% CI): 2.01 to 7.44, p<0.001) and the risk of progression by twofold (HR: 2.79, 95% CI: 1.68 to 4.64, p<0.001). To quantify each covariate’s weight on prognosis, we screened variables by cox model to construct a predictive model. The Nomogram showed excellent accuracy in estimating death’s risk, with a corrected C-index of 0.778.ConclusionsmiR-219-5p can be used as a biomarker to predict death risk in prostate cancer patients. The mortality risk prediction model constructed based on miR-219-5p has good consistency and validity in assessing patient prognosis.

Background. The aim of the study was to present the oncologic outcomes and to determine the prognostic factors of overall (OS) and cancer-specific survival (CSS) as well as disease-progression-free survival (DPFS) after surgery for pT3b prostate cancer. Materials and methods. In 2002–2007, a pT3b stage after radical prostatectomy was detected in 56 patients. Patients were divided into groups according to the prostate-specific antigen (PSA) level (20 ng/ml), lymph nodes status (N0 vs. Nx vs. N1) and the Gleason score (6–7 vs. 8–10). The Kaplan–Meier analysis was used to calculate OS, CSS and DPFS. The Cox regression was used to identify the predictive factors of survival. Results. Five-year OS, CSS and DPFS rates were 75.1%, 79.6% and 79.3%, respectively. The survival was significantly different when comparing the Gleason 6–7 and 8–10 groups. The 5-year OS, CSS and DPFS were 91.2% vs. 48.6%, 97.1% vs. 51.1% and 93.8 vs. 51.1%, respectively. There was no difference in survival among the groups with a different PSA level. The OS and CSS but not DPFS were significantly different when comparing the N0 and N1 groups. The 5-year OS and CSS was 84.4% vs. 37.5% and 87.3% vs. 47.6%, respectively. The specimen Gleason score was a significant predictor of OS and CSS. The risk of death increased up to 4-fold when a Gleason score 8–10 was present at the final pathology. Conclusions. Radical prostatectomy may offer acceptable CSS, DPFS and OS rates in pT3b PCa. However, outcomes in patients with N1 and specimen Gleason ≥8 were significantly worse, suggesting the need of multimodality treatment in such cases.

Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the survival outcomes of patients with bladder outlet obstruction (BOO) and metastatic prostate cancer (mPCa) after having a palliative transurethral resection of the prostate (pTURP) surgery.Methods: We identified patients with mPCa between 2004 and 2016 in the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database. Patients who received pTURP and non-surgical therapy were identified. A propensity-score matching was introduced to balance the covariate. Kaplan–Meier analysis and COX regression were conducted to evaluate the overall survival (OS) and cancer-specific survival (CSS) outcomes.Results: A total of 36,003 patients were identified; 2,823 of them were in the pTURP group and 33,180 were in the non-surgical group. The survival curves of the overall cohort showed that the pTURP group was associated with worse outcomes in both OS (HR: 1.12, 95% CI: 1.07–1.18, p &lt; 0.001) and CSS (HR: 1.08, 95% CI: 1.02–1.15, p = 0.004) compared with the non-surgical group. The mean survival time in the overall cohort of the pTURP group was shorter than the non-surgical group in both OS [35.13 ± 1.53 vs. 40.44 ± 0.59 months] and CSS [48.8 ± 1.27 vs. 55.92 ± 0.43 months]. In the matched cohort, the pTURP group had significantly lower survival curves for both OS (HR: 1.25, 95% CI: 1.16–1.35, p &lt; 0.001) and CSS (HR: 1.23, 95% CI: 1.12–1.35, p &lt; 0.001) than the non-surgical group. pTURP significantly reduced the survival months of the patients (36.49 ± 0.94 vs. 45.52 ± 1.23 months in OS and 50.1 ± 1.49 vs. 61.28 ± 1.74 months in CSS). In the multivariate COX analysis, pTURP increased the risk of overall mortality (HR: 1.19, 95% CI: 1.09–1.31, p &lt; 0.001) and cancer-specific mortality CSS (HR: 1.23, 95% CI: 1.14–1.33, p &lt; 0.001) compared with the non-surgical group.Conclusions: For mPCa patients with BOO, pTURP could reduce OS and CSS while relieving the obstruction.

Aim. The aim of this study is to present the oncologic outcomes and to determine the prognostic factors of overall survival (OS), cancer-specific survival (CSS), disease-progression-free survival (DPFS), and biochemical-progression-free survival (BPFS) after surgery for pT3 prostate cancer (PCa).Methods. Between 2002 and 2007, a pT3 stage after radical prostatectomy was detected in 182 patients at our institution. The Kaplan-Meier analysis was used to calculate OS, CSS, DPFS, and BPFS. Cox regression was used to identify predictive factors of survival.Results. pT3a was detected in 126 (69%) and pT3b in 56 (31%) of cases. Five-year OS, CSS, DPFS, and BPFS rates were 90.7%, 94%, 91.8%, and 48.4%, respectively. Survival was significantly different when comparing pT3a to pT3b groups. The 5-year OS, CSS, DPFS, and BPFS were 96% versus 72%, 98% versus 77%, 97.3% versus 79.3%, and 60% versus 24.2%, respectively. Specimen Gleason score was the most significant predictor of OS, CSS, DPFS, and BPFS. The risk of death increased up to 3-fold when a Gleason score 8–10 was present at the final pathology.Conclusions. Radical prostatectomy may offer very good CSS, OS, DPFS, and BPFS rates in pT3a PCa. However, outcomes in patients with pT3b or specimen Gleason ≥8 were significantly worse, suggesting the need for multimodality treatment in those cases.

AbstractTo date, only few data concerning the biologically active, free form of testosterone (FT) are available in metastatic prostate cancer (mPC) and the impact of FT on disease, therapy and outcome is largely unknown. We retrospectively studied the effect of docetaxel on FT and total testosterone (TT) serum levels in 67 mPC patients monitored between April 2008 and November 2020. FT and TT levels were measured before and weekly during therapy. The primary endpoint was overall survival (OS). Secondary endpoints were prostate-specific antigen response and radiographic response (PSAR, RR), progression-free survival (PFS), FT/TT levels and safety. Median FT and TT serum levels were completely suppressed to below the detection limit during docetaxel treatment (FT: from 0.32 to < 0.18 pg/mL and TT: from 0.12 to < 0.05 ng/mL, respectively). Multivariate Cox regression analyses identified requirement of non-narcotics, PSAR, complete FT suppression and FT nadir values < 0.18 pg/mL as independent parameters for PFS. Prior androgen-receptor targeted therapy (ART), soft tissue metastasis and complete FT suppression were independent prognostic factors for OS. FT was not predictive for treatment outcome in mPC patients with a history of ART.

Laboratory Markers

De novo cases of metastatic prostate cancer (mCSPC) are associated with poorer prognosis. To assist in clinical decision-making, we aimed to determine the prognostic utility of commonly available laboratory-based markers with overall survival (OS). In a retrospective population-based study, a cohort of 3556 men aged ≥66 years diagnosed with de novo mCSPC between 2014 and 2019 was identified in Ontario (Canada) administrative database. OS was assessed by using the Kaplan–Meier method. Multivariate Cox regression analysis was performed to evaluate the association between laboratory markers and OS adjusting for patient and disease characteristics. Laboratory markers that were assessed include neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), albumin, hemoglobin, serum testosterone and PSA kinetics. Among the 3556 older men with de novo mCSPC, their median age was 77 years (IQR: 71–83). The median survival was 18 months (IQR: 10–31). In multivariate analysis, a statistically significant association with OS was observed with all the markers (NLR, PLR, albumin, hemoglobin, PSA decrease, reaching PSA nadir and a 50% PSA decline), except for testosterone levels. Our findings support the use of markers of systemic inflammation (NLR, PLR and albumin), hemoglobin and PSA metrics as prognostic indicators for OS in de novo mCSPC.

The limitations of the biomarker prostate-specific antigen (PSA) necessitate the pursuit of biomarkers capable of better identifying high-risk prostate cancer (PC) patients in order to improve their therapeutic management and outcomes. Aggressive prostate tumors characteristically exhibit high rates of glycolysis and lipogenesis. Glycerol 3-phosphate phosphatase (G3PP), also known as phosphoglycolate phosphatase (PGP), is a recently identified mammalian enzyme, shown to play a role in the regulation of glucose metabolism, lipogenesis, lipolysis, and cellular nutrient-excess detoxification. We hypothesized that G3PP may relieve metabolic stress in cancer cells and assessed the association of its expression with PC patient prognosis. Using immunohistochemical staining, we assessed the epithelial expression of G3PP in two different radical prostatectomy (RP) cohorts with a total of 1797 patients, for whom information on biochemical recurrence (BCR), metastasis, and mortality was available. The association between biomarker expression, biochemical recurrence (BCR), bone metastasis, and prostate cancer-specific survival was established using log-rank and multivariable Cox regression analyses. High expression of G3PP in PC epithelial cells is associated with an increased risk of BCR, bone metastasis, and PC-specific mortality. Multivariate analysis revealed high G3PP expression in tumors as an independent predictor of BCR and bone metastasis development. High G3PP expression in tumors from patients eligible for prostatectomies is a new and independent prognostic biomarker of poor prognosis and aggressive PC for recurrence, bone metastasis, and mortality.

Nighttime fasting has been inconclusively associated with a reduced risk of cancer. The purpose of this study was to investigate this association in relation to prostate cancer risk. We examined data from 607 prostate cancer cases and 848 population controls who had never worked in night shift work from the Spanish multicase-control (MCC) study, 2008–2013. Through an interview, we collected circadian information on meal timing at mid-age. We estimated odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) with unconditional logistic regression. After controlling for time of breakfast, fasting for more than 11 h overnight (the median duration among controls) was associated with a reduced risk of prostate cancer compared to those fasting for 11 h or less (OR = 0.77, 95% 0.54–1.07). Combining a long nighttime fasting and an early breakfast was associated with a lower risk of prostate cancer compared to a short nighttime fasting and a late breakfast (OR = 0.54, 95% CI 0.27–1.04). This study suggests that a prolonged nighttime fasting duration and an early breakfast may be associated with a lower risk of prostate cancer. Findings should be interpreted cautiously and add to growing evidence on the importance of chrononutrition in relation to cancer risk.
