7 Lifetime Risk of Dying from CaP Risk of dying from prostate cancer is ~3% Once metastatic disease develops there is no cure Prior to PSA screening only 25% of CaP presented confined to prostate vs. 91% since 5 year CSS rates increased from ~70% to 100% (from 1980s to early 2000s) Jemal et al.

8 Prostate Mortality Rates Men are living longer As such CaP mortality risk should be on rise Yet mortality rates have continued to drop No identified environmental link (diet, ect ) to explain this such as decline in smoking/lung Cancer deaths Is decline due to screening, stage migration (due to screening), better treatment, or unknown environmental link? Jemal et al. Cancer statistics, CA cancer J clin, 2011 Mar-Apr;61(2):133-4.
9 Presentation Most patients are asymptomatic Diagnosed due to elevated PSA or abnormal DRE Advanced cancer may present with bone pain, unintentional weight loss, hematuria, worsening LUTS, urinary retention, hydronephrosis, LE weakness/leg numbness/difficulty with ambulation Campbell-Walsh UROLOGY, 9th edition Comprehensive Textbook of Genitourinary Oncology, 3rd edition

11 Prevention PCPT (Prostate Cancer Prevention Trial) 18,000 men randomized to placebo vs. Proscar 5mg qday 7 year follow-up Decreased risk of prostate cancer by 25% Found small increase in high-grade cancer development Further subset analysis did NOT show this to be true Thomson IM et al. The influence of finasteride on the development of prostate cancer. N Engl J Med, 349, 2003 Kaplan SA et al. PCPT- Evidence that finasteride reduces the risk of most frequently detected intermediate and grade (Gleason score 6 and 7) cancer. Urology, 73, 2009
12 Prevention REDUCE trial (Reduction by Dutasteride of Prostate Cancer Events) 8,000 men >50 yrs old were randomized to placebo vs. Dutasteride 0.5mg qday Follow-up 4 years Decreased risk of developing Gleason score 5-6 cancer by 27% Did not reduce risk of Gleason 7-10 cancer Did not increase risk of developing high grade cancer Enhanced ability of PSA to detect high grade cancers Andriole GL et al.

13 Screening Guideline Age to start CaP screening Suggested Screening Tests AUA PSA and DRE NCCN PSA and DRE EAU 45 PSA and DRE ACS (depends on risk) PSA with or without DRE American Urological Association 2009, National Comprehensive Cancer Network 2010, European Association of Urology 2009, American Cancer Society 2010
14 Screening Intervals What age should you stop screening? Some advocate men >75 should not be screened* AUA and NCCN guidelines state that screening should be individualized based on overall health (life expectancy >10yrs, FH of longevity, minimal competing medical comorbidities) American Urological Association 2009, National Comprehensive Cancer Network 2010, European Association of Urology 2009, American Cancer Society 2010 *U.S. Preventative Service Task Force Guidelines, 2008
15 Screening Controversial Does PSA-based screening lead to decrease in risk of death from prostate cancer? Advantages May prolong survival and save lives Save men from long painful death with little effective treatments available (costs?) Disadvantages Overdiagnosis Overtreatment Potential decrease in QOL from treatment (costs?) Campbell-Walsh UROLOGY, 9th edition Comprehensive Textbook of Genitourinary Oncology, 3rd edition
16 USPSTF To Downgrade PSA Screening From "I" to "D" As In "Don't Do It" U.S. Preventative Service Task Force this past Friday recommended NOT to use PSA to screen for men for prostate cancer Based on meta-analysis done of available literature The Cancer Letter, Oct. 7, 2011
17 Screening for Prostate Cancer: A Review of the Evidence for the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force ABSTRACT Background: Prostate specific antigen-based screening can detect prostate cancer in earlier, asymptomatic stages, when treatments might be more effective. Purpose: To update the 2002 and 2008 U.S. Preventive Services Task Force evidence reviews on screening and treatments for prostate cancer. Data Sources: MEDLINE (2002 to July 2011), the Cochrane Library Database (through the 2nd quarter of 2011) and reference lists. Study Selection: Randomized trials of PSA-based screening; randomized trials and cohort studies of prostatectomy or radiation therapy versus watchful waiting for localized prostate cancer; and large (n>1000), uncontrolled observational studies of perioperative harms. Data Extraction: Investigators abstracted details about the patient population, study design, data analysis, and results and assessed quality using predefined criteria. Conclusions: After about 10 years, PSA-based screening results in small or no reduction in prostate cancer-specific mortality and is associated with harms related to subsequent evaluation and treatments, some of which may be unnecessary. The Cancer Letter, Oct. 7, 2011
18 Screening Two large trials done recently looking at survival benefit from screening: PLCO screening trial (U.S.) and ERSPC screening trial (European) These two RCT were largely basis for USPSTF recommendations Andriole GL et al. Mortality results from a randomized prostate cancer screening trial. N Engl J Med, 360 (13): 1310, 2009 Schroder FH et al. Screening and prostate cancer mortality in a randomized european study. N Engl J Med, 360 (13): 1320, 2009
19 PLCO (US trial) Prostate, lung, colorectal, ovarian Cancer screening trial (U.S.) 76,693 men randomized Ages included After 7 years risk of death same Significant flaws in study makes conclusions questionable Found no survival benefit for PSA based screening Andriole GL et al. Mortality results from a randomized prostate cancer screening trial. N Engl J Med, 360 (13): 1310, 2009
20 PLCO trial flaws Significant rates of screening in control arm 52% contamination (men were screened prior to study) Relatively low rate of biopsy in men who had abnormal screening results in screen arm Less than 50% of men in screened arm with indication had biopsy done Short follow-up (less than 10 yrs) Andriole GL et al. Mortality results from a randomized prostate cancer screening trial. N Engl J Med, 360 (13): 1310, 2009
21 ERSPC screening trial (European) European Randomized Study of Screening for Prostate Cancer 182,000 men randomized Ages included Median f/up of 9 years there was 20% reduction in CaP deaths in screened group 41 % reduction in metastases at presentation Schroder FH et al. Screening and prostate cancer mortality in a randomized european study. N Engl J Med, 360 (13): 1320, 2009
22 ERSPC screening trial (European) flaws Numerous sites of trial entry (7 countries) Mortality reduction of 20% came with large investment To prevent one cancer death, need over 1400 men to be screened over decade and 48 men would require treatment Schroder FH et al. Screening and prostate cancer mortality in a randomized european study. N Engl J Med, 360 (13): 1320, 2009
23 Screening Problems with both studies Short follow-up <10 years (mortality from CaP is very low in first 10 years) Subset analysis not done for high risk men (i.e. those with +FH, AA) Andriole GL et al. Mortality results from a randomized prostate cancer screening trial. N Engl J Med, 360 (13): 1310, 2009 Schroder FH et al. Screening and prostate cancer mortality in a randomized european study. N Engl J Med, 360 (13): 1320, 2009
24 Göteborg Screening Trial Göteborg randomized population-based prostate screening trial 20,000 men randomized Ages included (median 56) Median follow-up 14 years Found 44% risk reduction in CaP specific death in screened group NNT analysis revealed that 293 men needed to be screened and 12 men need to be diagnosed in order to prevent 1 death Hugosson et al.

25 Diagnosis PSA can be elevated secondary to BPH, prostatitis, recent ejaculation, prostate trauma (massage, biopsy, urethral instrumentation, cycling, etc ) Use of age and ethnicity adjusted PSA values Age Caucasian African-American Asian-American Campbell-Walsh UROLOGY, 9th edition
26 Diagnosis PSA not perfect and can only be used to define risk of prostate cancer NOT diagnosis No universally accepted threshold value Decision to biopsy based on many different criteria (age, PSA velocity, PSADT, FH, race, etc ) Other tests may help make decision to biopsy PCA3, total and free PSA (use for PSA between 4-10) Campbell-Walsh UROLOGY, 9th edition
27 Indications for Prostate Biopsy Suspicious DRE Age, ethnicity, +FH Abnormal total PSA Abnormal change in total PSA Abnormal PSA velocity Abnormal Total and Free PSA (use when PSA between 4-10) Campbell-Walsh UROLOGY, 9th edition

34 Treatment options for Localized Prostate Cancer Active Surveillance Androgen Deprivation Therapy (ADT) Surgery Radiation Cryoablation Campbell-Walsh UROLOGY, 9th edition Comprehensive Textbook of Genitourinary Oncology, 3rd edition
35 Active Surveillance Not discussed enough in this country Strict selection criteria Low risk: ct1-2a, PSA<10, life expectancy <10yrs, Gleason 6 or less Very low risk: ct1-2a, PSA<10, life expectancy up to 20yrs, Gleason 6 or less, <3 cores +, <50% of each core involved Campbell-Walsh UROLOGY, 9th edition Comprehensive Textbook of Genitourinary Oncology, 3rd edition
36 Androgen Deprivation Therapy Not a good choice for localized prostate cancer Significant side effects Depression/impaired memory, increased risk of CV events, bone loss, hot flashes, penile shortening, glucose intolerance, central obesity, ED and libido, gynecomastia Useful in select cases of advanced disease, +LN or combined therapy for locally advanced disease with radiation Campbell-Walsh UROLOGY, 9th edition Comprehensive Textbook of Genitourinary Oncology, 3rd edition
37 Cryoablation (freezing of prostate) Cancer-specific outcomes not as mature as surgery or radiation Almost all men will have significant ED after Tx Not good option for locally advanced or high risk patients Useful for men with previous pelvic radiation, rectal disorders, or inflammatory bowel disease Good salvage therapy option for men with recurrent disease after radiation, brachytherapy or cryoablation Campbell-Walsh UROLOGY, 9th edition
38 Radiation Various delivery methods XRT (external beam radiotherapy) Whole pelvis, 3-D conformal, IMRT (intensity modulated radiation therapy) Brachytherapy (radioactive seeds) Temporary high dose rate (usually combined with XRT boost) permanent low dose rate Campbell-Walsh UROLOGY, 9th edition
39 Radiation For low risk disease IMRT or Brachytherapy good treatment choices No need to add ADT For intermediate risk disease should add ADT 2 months before, during, and for 6 months after XRT For high risk disease should add longer course of ADT Just before, during, and for 3 years after XRT No randomized prospective trials comparing surgery to radiation D Amico et al. Androgen suppression and radiation vs. radiation alone for prostate cancer. JAMA, 299, 2008 Bolla et al. Three years of adjuvant androgen deprivation with goserelin in patients with locally advanced prostate cancer treated with radiotherapy. N Engl J Med, 337, 1997
40 Surgery Different approaches to remove prostate Open Laparoscopic (use straight instruments) Robotic (use wristed instruments with 7 degrees of freedom) Campbell-Walsh UROLOGY, 9th edition Comprehensive Textbook of Genitourinary Oncology, 3rd edition
41 Open vs. Robotic Incisions
42 The da Vinci Robotic System
43 Robotic Prostatectomy Literature comparing Robotic vs. Open: Less blood loss Shorter stay Faster return to normal activity Equivalent cancer control Equivalent incontinence rates Equivalent ED rates Experience and proper training important Most Urologist performing in community don t have fellowship training
44 Surgery Only form of treatment with randomized trial revealing CSS and OS advantage when compared to surveillance Survival benefit was seen for men <65 yrs of age Bill-Axelson A et al. Radical prostatectomy versus watchful waiting in localized prostate cancer: the Scandinavian Prostate Cancer Group 4 randomized trial. J Natl Cancer Inst, 100, 2008
45 Surgery Authors of that study recently published updated 15 year follow-up data Again found CSS and OS benefit for men undergoing RP vs. surveillance in <65 yrs of age Bill-Axelson A et al. Radical prostatectomy versus watchful waiting in early prostate cancer. N Engl J Med, 364, 2011
46 PIVOT (Prostate cancer Intervention Versus Observation Trial) Randomized men 75yrs old with CaP to radical prostatectomy vs. expectant management with all-cause mortality as primary end-point (trial closed recently after accruing 731) Will be different than Scandinavian trial that looked at same thing, but essentially in pre-psa era Wilt et al. The prostate cancer intervention versus observation Trial: VA/NCI/AHRQ cooperative studies program #407 (PIVOT) Contemp Clin Trials 2009;30:81-87 Bill-Axelson A et al. Radical prostatectomy versus watchful waiting in early prostate cancer. N Engl J Med, 364, 2011
47 ProtecT (Prostate testing for cancer and Treatment) RCT of treatment effectiveness in UK Opened 2001 and closed ,000 men randomly assigned to surveillance, radiation, or surgery Primary end-point will be CSS at 10yrs With numerous secondary end-points including QOL analyses Donovan et al. Prostate testing for cancer and treatment (ProtecT) feasibility study. Health Technol Assess 2003; 7:14
48 Conclusions Prostate cancer very common problem Need to know which men to offer screening, when to begin and end, and how often to offer screening Currently we overtreat prostate cancer in U.S. Desperately need to find better ways to delineate aggressive forms of prostate cancer from indolent disease in order to offer treatment to men who will benefit and spare those who will not
