Abstract:
49 Background: This study aimed to evaluate long-term outcomes of intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) combined with neoadjuvant (NA) hormonal therapy (HT) in Japanese patients with non-metastatic prostate cancer (NMPC). Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the data of 485 patients with T1-T4N0M0 adenocarcinoma of the prostate treated with IMRT combined with NA-HT. Of these patients, 32, 113, 250, and 90 patients were categorized into the low-, intermediate-, high-, and very high-risk groups, respectively, according to the NCCN risk classification. NA-HT was administered over a median duration of 6 months. In principle, 74 or 78 Gy in 2 Gy per-fraction were delivered to the prostate and seminal vesicles according to the risk. We did not administer adjuvant HT (A-HT) for any patient following the completion of IMRT. Salvage HT (S-HT) commenced when prostate-specific antigen (PSA) values exceeded 4 ng/mL. Results: The median follow-up period was 103.4 months, and the median PSA value at the initiation of S-HT was 5.1 ng/mL. In the low-risk group, the 8-year biochemical relapse-free survival, prostate cancer-specific survival, overall survival, and S-HT-free (SHTF) rates were 89.7%, 100.0%, 100.0%, and 96.7%, respectively. Those were 83.7%, 100.0%, 96.0%, and 94.3% for the intermediate-risk group, 64.5%, 97.8%, 87.0%, and 79.4% for the high-risk group, and 47.7%, 96.6%, 89.7%, and 53.3% for the very high-risk group, respectively. The estimated 8-year cumulative incidence rates of late gastrointestinal and genitourinary (grades 2–3) toxicity were 7.2% and 21.8%, respectively. We observed no grade 4 or higher toxicity. Conclusions: High-dose IMRT, combined with NA-HT and without A-HT under the early S-HT policy, achieved excellent survival outcomes with acceptable morbidities for a Japanese cohort with NMPC. Moreover, especially for high, and very high-risk patients, this approach could be a viable alternative to the uniform provision of long-term A-HT because more than the half of the patients maintained SHTF status over a period of 8-year after IMRT. Prospective trials are warranted to validate the findings of this study.
