Ten-year results from a large randomized controlled trial (ProtecT) including men with low risk and FIR disease on AS versus treatment reported a non-significant 1.7 fold increase in PC-specific mortality (PCSM) for AS, though most men were low risk. To determine the excess risk of PCSM with AS vs. radical prostatectomy (RP), we determined the risk of PCSM in FIR men undergoing RP and estimated the PCSM risk for AS using a range of increased PSCM scenarios ranging from 50% higher to 5-fold higher. METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed data from men undergoing RP from 1988-2017 at 8 Veterans Affairs hospitals within the SEARCH Database. Men with FIR PC were identified using the NCCN risk criteria (<50% positive biopsy cores & cT2b-c or grade group (GG) 2 or PSA 10-20). Risk of PCSM at 5, 10, and 15 years after RP was estimated. Using these estimates, PCSM and number needed to harm (NNH) at 5, 10, and 15 years was then estimated for AS using a range of increased risk of PCSM relative to RP ranging from 50% higher to 5-fold higher. RESULTS: For the 920 FIR men identified, 5-, 10-, and 15-year survival estimates for PCSM were 99.86%, 99.01%, and 97.63%, respectively. Using these estimates, if the risk of PCSM on AS were 1.5 times greater than RP, for 15 year survival 92 patients would need to be put on AS for 1 excess PC-specific death to occur (1.09% excess risk of PCSM). If the risk of PCSM on AS were 5 times greater than RP, for 15 year survival the NNH would be 12 (8.68% excess risk of PCSM). Tables 1a&b summarize NNH and risk of excess PCSM assuming AS has 1.5, 2, 3, and 5 times the risk of PCSM relative to RP. CONCLUSIONS: The risk of death for FIR after RP is very low. Assuming even modest increases PCSM with AS vs. RP, the excess risk of death for AS in FIR is low. These data support the consideration of AS as a relatively safe alternative to RP in FIR men, though prospective randomized trials are needed to validate these findings.
