| Abstract | Purpose: Local prostate radiation therapy (LPRT) for low-burden metastatic prostate cancer (mPCa) improves overall survival and is the standard of care. The role of LPRT in reducing symptomatic local events (SLE) remains unclear. We aimed to identify SLE risk factors and to evaluate the association between LPRT and SLE in mPCa. Methods and materials: We conducted a retrospective, population-based cohort study of patients initially diagnosed with mPCa between 2005 and 2016 in a cancer registry. Patient, tumor, and treatment characteristics were obtained from chart review and the cancer registry. The coprimary endpoints were genitourinary (GU) and gastrointestinal (GI) SLE, identified by physician billing claims between 2004 and 2017 for diagnostic or therapeutic procedures potentially related to GU and GI SLE. The effect of LPRT on SLE was evaluated using both recurrent event (Andersen-Gill model) and time-to-first-event sequential landmark analyses. Risk factors for SLE were assessed by multivariable Cox regression. LPRT was defined as ≥40 Gy within 1 year of diagnosis. Metastatic burden was defined per the STAMPEDE trial. Results: Of 1363 patients, 46 (3.4%) received LPRT. Median follow-up was 27.3 and 28.9 months in the control and LPRT groups, respectively. LPRT was associated with less recurrent GU SLE (hazard ratio [HR], 0.34; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.17-0.67; P = .002), upper tract obstruction (HR, 0.20; 95% CI, 0.05-0.84; P = .03), and cystoscopy (HR, 0.38; 95% CI, 0.15-0.96; P = .04). Metastatic burden was not associated with SLE. Conclusions: LPRT in mPCa was associated with less recurrent GU SLE, specifically for upper tract obstruction and cystoscopy. |
