Abstract Background: Whether androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) is associated with an increased risk of developing cardiovascular related disease is poorly defined. The aim of the present meta‐analysis is to explore the relationship between ADT and the risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD). Method: For this systematic review and meta-analysis, we searched databases until April 2019 for randomized controlled trial (RCT) or observational studies that reported data on ADT administration and cardiovascular disease (CVD) incidence. The relationship was evaluated through estimate relative risk ratio (RR) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) Result: A statistically significant difference was detected for acute myocardial infarction (AMI) (RR = 1.13; 95% CI, 1.10–1.15; P< 0.05) including a total of 142,186 cases and 174,404 controls. Significant difference between coronary heart disease (CHD) and ADT was also observed, with summary (RR=1.11; 95% confidence interval CI: 1.10-1.13), from 157,339 ADT users and 349,636 non-ADT users of 7 eligible studies. Conclusions: Pooled result demonstrated that ADT could significantly increase the risk of CHD, AMI and sudden cardiac death (SCD). Various ADT modalities have different impact on cardiovascular disease risk in different level. Our meta-analysis also suggests that the application of ADT in prostate cancer patients for over 5 years resulted in a significant increase in cardiovascular morbidity. Moreover, subgroup analyses for different types of ADT indicated that compared with the individual administration of ADT, GnRH plus AA (oral anti-androgens) is more likely significantly lead to AMI.

31 Background: Androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) has been associated with an increased risk of developing diabetes (DM) and cardiovascular disease (CVD), though this is controversial, particularly for CVD. We prospectively assessed the relationship between ADT and incident DM and CVD in the Prostate Cancer Outcomes Study (PCOS), a population-based cohort of prostate cancer survivors followed longitudinally for 15 years from diagnosis. Methods: We identified men in the PCOS with non-metastatic prostate cancer diagnosed from 1994 to 1995 and followed through 2009 to 2010. We used multivariable logistic regression models to compare groups receiving short-term ADT (less than 2 years), prolonged ADT (2 years or more) and no ADT to assess the relationship between ADT exposure and subsequent diagnoses of DM and CVD (determined by patient report and cause of death data). We evaluated the effects of age at diagnosis, race, stage, and comorbidity on the development of DM and CVD. Results: Among 3,526 men with comorbidity and treatment data, 2,985 men without baseline DM and 3,112 men without baseline CVD constituted the DM and CVD cohorts, respectively. Regardless of duration of ADT exposure, there was not an increased risk of DM or CVD in men younger than 70 at diagnosis. Compared to no ADT exposure, prolonged ADT was associated with an increased risk of DM and CVD that increased steadily over age 76 at diagnosis for DM (OR 2.11 at age 74, 95% CI 1.02 – 4.36; OR 2.65 at age 80, 95% CI 1.09 – 6.47) and age 74 at diagnosis for CVD (OR 1.89 at age 74, 95% CI 1.02 - 3.49; OR 3.19 at age 80, 95% 1.25 – 8.17). Increasing comorbidity burden modified risk of DM and CVD (for 3 or more comorbidities vs. no comorbidities; for DM, OR 4.25, 95% CI 2.3 - 7.9; and for CVD, OR 8.1, 95% CI 4.3 -15.5 P<0.001). Conclusions: The relationship between ADT and development of CVD and DM may be dependent upon age at diagnosis in addition to length of ADT administration, with longer ADT exposure predominantly increasing risk among older men only. Men with greater comorbid burden had increased risk of developing DM and CVD. Closer monitoring for development of DM and CVD may be most important among older men receiving prolonged ADT, especially those with other comorbidities.

Abstract Background : Androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) is widely being applied in men who suffered from prostate cancer, our aim is to evaluate whether ADT is associated with an excess risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD). Method : Studies comparing the the incidence of CVD between ADT group and control group were identified through literature search in electronic databases (Pubmed, Embase, Web of Science) until July 2019 and only observational studies and randomized controlled trials (RCT) were included. The estimating relative risk ratio (RR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) were calculated through random effects meta-analyses. Result : A statistically significant association was detected for acute myocardial infarction (AMI) with RR = 1.22; 95% confidence interval CI, 1.05–1.43; P< 0.05. Significant relationship between coronary heart disease (CHD) and ADT was also observed, with summary RR=1.19; 95%CI, 1.03-1.38; P<0.05. ADT was associated with a risk increasement for heart failure (HF) with RR=1.15; 95% CI 1.01–1.33; P< 0.05. On the contrary, ADT was not associated with an increased risk of sudden cardiac death (SCD). Conclusions : From this study, ADT is associated with increased risk of AMI, CHD, and heart failure (HF); in contrast, this association is not detected in SCD; various modalities of ADT could significantly increase the risk of CHD, AMI, except for oral anti-androgen (AA). Our meta-analysis also suggests that the long-term application of ADT in prostate cancer patients would not result in a significant increase in AMI incidence compared with short-term. Moreover, the combined application of AA and GnRH agonists would lead to a similar risk of AMI compared with orchiectomy or GnRH agonists monotherapy whereas higher risk of CHD was detected when compared GnRH agonists plus AA with orchiectomy.

5044 Background: Androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) to treat prostate cancer may be associated with an increased risk of dementia, but existing studies have shown conflicting results. Here we conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis on the association of ADT in the treatment of prostate cancer with the risk of dementia. Methods: We conducted a systematic review of articles reporting the outcome of dementia among individuals with prostate cancer in those exposed to ADT versus a lesser-exposed comparison group (e.g. no ADT, intermittent ADT) using the PRISMA statement guidelines. Two authors independently carried out searches in PubMed (1966–present), Web of Science (1945–present), Embase (1966–present), and PsycINFO (1806–present). The search was undertaken December 4th, 2016. We assessed the validity of each study per the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale criteria. We meta-analyzed studies reporting an effect estimate and controlling for confounding.Random- or fixed-effects meta-analytic models were used in the presence or absence of heterogeneity, respectively, per the I2statistic. Small study effects were evaluated using Egger and Begg’s tests. Results: Nine studies were included in the systematic review. Seven studies reported an adjusted effect estimate for dementia risk. A random-effects meta-analysis of studies reporting any dementia outcome, which included 50,541 individuals, showed an increased risk of dementia among ADT users (hazard ratio [HR], 1.47; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.08–2.00; p = 0.02). We separately meta-analyzed studies reporting all-cause dementia (HR, 1.46; 95% CI, 1.05–2.02; p < 0.001) and Alzheimer’s disease (HR, 1.25; 95% CI, 0.99–1.57; p = 0.06). The I2statistic to evaluate the proportion of heterogeneity due to study variation was 76% (95% CI, 47–89; p < 0.001) for the primary analysis. There was no evidence of bias from small study effects (Egger, p = 0.19; Begg, p = 1.00). Conclusions: The currently available combined evidence suggests that ADT in the treatment of prostate cancer may be associated with an increased risk of dementia. The potential for neurocognitive deficits secondary to ADT should be discussed with patients and evaluated prospectively.

End Point

Context: Several studies reported the application of androgen deprivation therapy and radiotherapy in patients with biochemical recurrence after prostate cancer operation. Objective: To perform a systematic review and meta-analysis evaluating of endocrine therapy and radiotherapy in patients with biochemical recurrence after prostate cancer surgery. The primary end point was biochemical progression-free survival (bPFS). Secondary end point was overall survival (OS). Methods: A systematic review of PubMed/Medline, Embase, and Cochrane databases to identify relevant studies published in English up to March 2020. Twelve studies were selected for inclusion. Results: There were 11 studies included in the present study. Including two randomized controlled trials and nine cohort studies. The meta-analysis shows a significant bPFS benefit from androgen deprivation therapy and radiotherapy in patients with biochemical recurrence after prostate cancer operation. (hazard ratio [HR]: 0.57; 95% confidence interval CI, 0.52–0.63; p < .001). For patients with GS < 7 and low-risk patients, combined treatment can have a benefit for BPFs (HR: 0.53; 95% CI, 0.37–0.76; HR: 0.58; 95% CI, 0.36–0.93). Androgen deprivation therapy and radiotherapy in patients with biochemical recurrence was associated with a slightly OS improvement (HR: 0.73; 95% CI, 0.57–0.93; p = 0.01). Conclusions: Compared with salvage radiotherapy alone, This meta-analysis shows a significant bPFS benefit from endocrine therapy combined with salvage radiotherapy in patients with biochemical recurrence after prostate cancer operation. And benefit more for high-risk groups. However, there was no significant benefit in group GS ≥ 8. It shows a slightly OS benefit from endocrine therapy combined with salvage radiotherapy in patients with biochemical recurrence.

Introduction The implications of tumour location on mpMRI conspicuity are not fully understood. Identifying topographical correlates that influence conspicuity may improve outcomes. Here, we present the first systematic review and meta-analysis describing the effect of tumour location on prostate cancer conspicuity on mpMRI. Methods Medline, PubMed, EMBASE and Cochrane databases were systematically searched and results were assessed as per the PRISMA statement. Differential tumour conspicuity on mpMRI was compared between cancers in the peripheral zone (PZ), transitional zone (TZ), base, apex, anterior and posterior. Meta-analysis was conducted to compare diagnostic odds ratios (DOR) of mpMRI detection for tumours in the PZ and TZ. PROSPERO registration: CRD42021228087. Results Thematic synthesis showed apical and basal tumours had reduced conspicuity compared to mid-gland tumours. Cancer in the TZ demonstrated increased conspicuity on T2-weighted imaging, whilst PZ cancers had higher conspicuity on diffusion-weighted and dynamic contrast enhancement imaging. mpMRI had better diagnostic accuracy for PZ lesions, albeit higher specificity for TZ lesions. Meta-analysis showed an increased DOR for PZ tumours (OR: 7.206 [95% CI: 4.991;10.403], compared to TZ (OR: 5.310 [95% CI: 3.082; 9.151]). However, the test for subgroup differences was not significant (p = 0.2743). Conclusions Cancer in the apex or base of the prostate may be less conspicuous than mid-gland tumours. Similarly, TZ cancer appears to have reduced conspicuity compared to PZ cancer, however, meta-analysis did not show a significant difference between DOR. Future larger studies with prospective datasets are required to clarify the relationship between tumour position and conspicuity.
