Expectant management is an option for patients with presumed local recurrence who are too unfit or unwilling to undergo RT. PSA recurrence indicative of systemic relapse is best treated by early ADT, resulting in decreased frequency of clinical metastases if poor prognostic risk factors such as PSA DT <12 mo or Gleason score 8 10 are present. Luteinising hormone-releasing hormone analogues/antagonists/orchiectomy or bicalutamide 150 mg/d when hormonal therapy is indicated. Local recurrences can be treated with salvage RP in carefully selected patients, who presumably have organ-confined disease, that is, PSA <10 ng/ml, PSA DT >12 mo, low-dose brachytherapy, biopsy Gleason score <7. Cryosurgical ablation of the prostate and interstitial brachytherapy are alternative procedures in patients not suitable for surgery. HIFU may be an alternative option. However, patients must be informed about the experimental nature of this treatment modality due to the short follow-up periods reported. In patients with presumed systemic relapse, ADT may be offered. GR A C Salvage cryotherapy when not suitable for surgery experimental nature of salvage HIFU Heidenreich, Eur Urol 2014

From our experience we have seen significantly higher biochemical recurrence rates in this cohort using the ASTRO definition [8] that do not seem to translate to an increased recurrence rate with time under the Phoenix definition. This highlights the fact that with a lack of a validated standard definition of failure, long-term follow-up is required. Compa treatment modalities can be heavily inf definitions used.

9 Ramsay, Health Technology Assessment 2015 «There was no evidence that salvage ablative therapy was either better or worse than salvage RP following primary ERT for any outcomes» HEALTH TECHNOLOGY ASSESSMENT Ablative therapy for people with localised prostate cancer: a systematic review and economic evaluation VOLUME 19 ISSUE 49 JULY 2015 ISSN Craig R Ramsay, Temitope E Adewuyi, Joanne Gray, Jenni Hislop, Mark DF Shirley, Shalmini Jayakody, Graeme MacLennan, Summary and conclusions from the evidence of the comparative effectiveness of salvage ablative therapy This review considered data from 400 participants treated with salvage therapy following primary ERT across nine studies, 120, all of which were single-arm case series. Six studies involved salvage RP, , two involved salvage cryotherapy 208,212 and one involved salvage HIFU. 120 All of the studies were considered as having a high risk of bias. Consequently, the findings should be interpreted cautiously to reflect the extremely poor quality of the evidence base and the heterogeneity of outcome definition, different time points of outcome measurement and different means of outcome reporting. Data on the long-term effectiveness of salvage therapy were limited, with the majority of studies reporting on short-term data only. In the short term, there was no robust evidence that mortality or other cancer-specific outcomes (biochemical disease-free survival or failure) differed between salvage cryotherapy and salvage RP. There were no data on cancer-specific outcomes for salvage HIFU. With regard to functional outcomes, including urinary and sexual dysfunction and quality of life outcomes, the limited data prevented any valid conclusions from being made. For adverse event outcomes, there was a general trend for salvage cryotherapy to have fewer procedure-related complications, especially for bladder neck stenosis (up to 2% at a median of 18.6 months), in comparison with salvage HIFU (up to 17% at a median of 15 months) and salvage RP (up to 25% at a median of 20 months). However, the data limitations render these findings uncertain at best. In conclusion, the results of this review on salvage therapies were associated with large uncertainty owing to the quality and quantity of the evidence base. There was a lack of long-term direct measures of effectiveness and a lack of prospective comparative studies. There was no evidence to suggest that salvage ablative therapy was either better or worse than salvage RP following primary ERT for any outcomes.
