26 Survey Ghana, Ethiopia, Cameroon, Zimbabwe, Kenya Ghana Ethiopia Cameroon Zimbabwe Kenya Cancer centres Oncologists Urologists Diagnosis Uro Uro Uro Uro Uro Management (Uro+Onc) (Uro+Onc) (Uro+Onc) (Uro+Onc) Uro+Onc MDT

27 Summary Prostate cancer management is a problem Only southern and northern Africa have adequate RT resources Prostate cancer is managed mostly by urologists Bulk of oncology input is palliative care

28 Overview Challenges The Problem Resources Prostate cancer in Africa: How does it present?

29 Cancer fatality rates per cancer Prostate cancer Greatest disparity 78% vs 22% The Economist, 2009

30 Worldwide Prostate mortality Prostate Int Sept 4(3):

31 Summary Prostate cancer management is a major problem Only southern and northern Africa have adequate RT resources Urologists manage prostate cancer Bulk of oncology input is palliative care Presents as metastatic disease

32 Overview Challenges The Problem Resources Prostate cancer in Africa: How does it present? Palliative care infrastructure

33 Palliative care 4 Pillars Policy Education Drug access Implementation Harding et al. Lancet 2013

34 Morphine access No hospice facility Lancet 2013

35 Summary Prostate cancer management is a major problem Only southern and northern Africa have adequate RT resources Urologists manage prostate cancer Bulk of oncology input is palliative care Presents as metastatic disease Lack of palliative resources

36 Conclusions The problem is dire Only long term solution is political National cancer control programs Registries Early detection Resource acquisition & allocation Training Education Primary health care

41 Short term solution #1 Low-Income Guidelines Kerr et al; NEJM, 2010

42 Low-income management decisions Diagnosis PSA Screening Early detection Can be diagnostic PSA: Free/total: R420/R280 Cut off for radical treatment R220/R120

43 Low-income management decisions Active surveillance Repeat Biopsy Serial PSA Mulitple clinic visits Benefits Avoid treatment

44 Survey Ghana Ethiopia Cameroon Zimbabwe Kenya Screening PSA TRUS AS low risk

45 Low-income management decisions Bill-Axelson et al. NEJM, 2014

46 Low-income management decisions Positive trial OS (18y): 56% vs 68% CSM (18y): 17% vs 28%
