A large proportion of patients with prostate cancer undergoing androgen deprivation therapy continue to die from non-cancer causes in the PSA era
British Journal of Medical & Surgical Urology, 08/14/09
Wadhwa VK et al. – Many patients with PCa initiating ADT continue to die from non–cancer causes in an era of widespread PSA testing, the proportion increasing with older age at presentation. This may justify deferring hormonal treatment in suitable older asymptomatic men, sparing the burden of long–term ADT. Patients with PCa who require hormonal therapy should be assessed for cardiovascular and respiratory risk factors at the time of presentation.
