Growing evidence from prospective studies suggests worse outcomes on AS. Prior retrospective studies have been limited by inability to differentiate between AS or watchful waiting (WW). Herein, using a recent update in the Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results (SEER) Database, we provide the first population-level analysis of AS, WW and AT for LR and fIR PCa. METHODS: Men diagnosed with cN0M0 localized Gleason Grade Group (GG) 1-2 PCa between 2010-2015 were identified. Patients were stratified by GG and initial treatment into 6 cohorts; initial treatment was defined as AS, WW, or AT (first line surgery or radiation therapy), utilizing the new “Watchful waiting recode (2010+)” variable. The Kaplan-Meier method and log-rank test were used to compare cancer-specific (CSS) and overall survival (OS). All statistics were performed using SPSS®, version 23.0. RESULTS: 162,804 men were diagnosed with cT1-4N0M0 localized GG1 or GG2 PCa between 2010-2015. Full demographics of patients, stratified by GG and initial treatment modality, are seen in Table 1. GG2 patients on AS have worse CSS and OS than GG2 patients who received AT and GG1 patients treated with AS or AT. WW patients (GG1 and GG2) have the worst survival outcomes of any cohort (Figure 1) (log rank tests p<0.05). CONCLUSIONS: With improved distinction between WW and AS in the SEER dataset, it is evident that GG2 patients placed on AS have worse CSS and OS than comparable cohorts. In conjunction with increasing data from prospective cohorts, AS should not be the preferred treatment modality for GG2 PCa.
