Patient-reported health-related quality of life outcomes after HDR brachytherapy between small (

Abstract：

PURPOSE:Patients with large prostate glands are underrepresented in clinical trials incorporating brachytherapy due to concerns for excessive toxicity. We sought to compare health-related quality of life (HRQOL) outcomes between small (<60 cc) and large (≥60 cc) prostates treated with high-dose-rate brachytherapy (HDR-B). METHODS AND MATERIALS:One hundred thirty patients at Emory University were treated with HDR-B monotherapy (n = 75) or HDR-B in combination with external beam radiation therapy (n = 55). American Urologic Association Symptom Score (AUASS) and expanded prostate cancer index composite for clinical practice (EPIC-CP) scores were recorded. A linear mixed model was performed dichotomizing prostate volume (<60 and ≥ 60 cc) with AUASS, individual EPIC-CP domains (urinary incontinence, urinary irritation/obstruction [UIO], bowel function, sexual function, and vitality/hormonal function), and overall EPIC-CP HRQOL scores. RESULTS:Median followup was 22.6 months (range 2.2-55.8). The median gland volume for the entire cohort (n = 130), <60 cc cohort (n = 104), and ≥60 cc cohort (n = 26) was 44 cc, 41.1 cc, and 68.0 cc, respectively. There were no baseline differences in HRQOL scores between cohorts. At 2 months, AUASS and UIO scores increased similarly between cohorts (AUASS p = 0.807; UIO p = 0.539), then decreased (longitudinal effect p < 0.001 and p = 0.005, respectively) to remain not significantly different at 12 months (AUASS p = 0.595; UIO p = 0.673). Overall, prostate volume was not significantly associated with change in AUASS (p = 0.403), urinary incontinence (p = 0.322), UIO symptoms (p = 0.779), bowel symptoms (p = 0.757), vitality/hormonal symptoms (p = 0.503), or overall HRQOL (p = 0.382). CONCLUSIONS:In appropriately selected patients, HDR-B appears well tolerated in patients with ≥60 cc prostate glands without an increase in patient-reported toxicity. Volume should not be a strict contraindication in those with adequate baseline function.
