ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVES:
To evaluate functional and oncological outcomes of salvage high-intensity focal ultrasound (S-HIFU) after external beam radiotherapy (EBRT) failure in prostate cancer (PCa) patients.METHODS:
This single-center study included patients who underwent S-HIFU for local recurrence after EBRT between 2006 and 2023. Cancer-specific survival, metastasis-free survival and progression-free survival were illustrated using Kaplan-Meier curves. Disease progression was defined by one of the following criteria increase of 2ng/mL or more above the PSA nadir, positive post-S-HIFU biopsy or initiation of androgen deprivation therapy (ADT). Multivariable Cox proportional hazards model was used to identify predictors of disease progression after S-HIFU.RESULTS:
A total of 52 S-HIFU sessions for 48 patients were performed. Median time between EBRT and S-HIFU was 6.5 years. Median PSA before S-HIFU was 3.2ng/mL and median PSA nadir after S-HIFU was 0.58ng/mL. A total of 39 (81.3%) complications was recorded, including 3 (6.3%) high grade complications according to the Clavien-Dindo classification. After a median follow-up period of 6 years, 14 (29.2%) patients developed metastatic disease. Eighteen (37.5%) patients had no recurrence, whereas 30 (62.5%) patients received ADT for disease progression. The estimated 5-yr cancer-specific survival (CSS), metastasis-free survival (MFS) and progression-free survival rates (PFSR) were 100%, 79.9% (95% CI 67-92) and 41.2% (95% CI 74-96), respectively. The estimated 10-yr CSS, MFS and PFSR were 80% (95% CI 45-100), 50.7% (95% CI 19.4-82.1) and 14% (95% CI 10.8-45), respectively. The hazard of progression increased with the intermediate (HR 3.8; 95% CI 0.99 to 15; p=0.049) and high pre-EBRT d'Amico-s risk group (HR 4.1; 95% CI 0.98 to 16.2; p=0.050). Also, the time between EBRT and S-HIFU was significantly associated with risk of progression (HR 0.61; 95% CI 0.43 to 0.86; p=0.004). No significant difference linked to the disease progression (DP) risk was found between focal vs whole-gland treatment (p=0.70).CONCLUSION:
Physicians should consider HIFU as a local salvage treatment after failed EBRT, thus avoiding or delaying palliative androgen deprivation therapy. Further studies are needed to improve patient selection for this therapy.Palavras-chave
