Abstract

Background:Metastatic prostate carcinoma has poor prognoses with a median survival period ranging from 2 to 5 years with existing therapeutic challenges. Currently, peptide receptor radionuclide therapy is permitted as a treatment method for metastatic prostate carcinoma patients. Therefore, it is crucial to comprehend the efficiency and safety of peptide receptor radionuclide therapy among this patient population. This study aims to analyse the efficacy of peptide receptor radionuclide therapy when used to treat metastatic prostate carcinoma patients.Methods:This research will perform a methodological search in the following electronic databases to find related randomized controlled trials: Cochrane Library, EMBASE, PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), WanFang database, and Chinese BioMedical Literature. All the databases are searched from their inauguration till November 2020. Two independent authors will screen and select literature for review. The two authors will independently utilize the Cochrane Risk of Bias tool to assess the bias risk in studies. This study also plans to conduct subgroup and sensitivity analyses to evaluate the robustness in the results. Statistical analyses will be conducted with the RevMan 5.3 software.Results:A high-quality synthesis of existing evidence related to peptide receptor radionuclide therapy in the treatment of metastatic prostate carcinoma will be presented in this study.Conclusion:Our findings will provide evidence to judge whether peptide receptor radionuclide treatment is efficient for metastatic prostate carcinoma patients.Ethics and dissemination:An ethics approval is not required because the data of the present study are primarily obtained from published studies.OSF registration number: December 1, 2020.osf.io/3psx7.
