Impact of Androgen Deprivation Therapy Associated to Conformal Radiotherapy in the Treatment of D'Amico Intermediate-/High-Risk Prostate Cancer in Older Patients.

ABSTRACT: The association of 3D Conformal External Beam Radiotherapy (3D-CEBRT) with adjuvant Androgen Deprivation Therapy (ADT) proved to treat patients with intermediate- and high-risk localized prostate cancer (IR and HR). However, older patients were underrepresented in literature. We aimed to report the oncological results and morbidity 3D-CEBRT +ADT in ≥80 years patients. From June 1998 to July 2017, 101 patients ≥80 years were included in a tertiary center. The median age was 82 years. ADT was initiated 3 months prior 3D-CEBRT in all patients, with a total duration of 6 months for IR prostate cancer (group A; n = 41) and 15 months for HR prostate cancer (group B; n = 60). Endpoints included overall survival (OS), metastasis-free survival (DMFS), biochemical recurrence-free survival (BRFS) and
