Correlation Between Imaging-Based Intermediate Endpoints and Overall Survival in Men With Metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer: Analysis of 28 Randomized Trials Using the Prostate Cancer Clinical Trials Working Group (PCWG2) Criteria in 16,511 Patients.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction/background

Radiographic progression-free survival (rPFS) based on Prostate Cancer Working Group 2 (PCWG2) has been increasingly used as a meaningful imaging-based intermediate endpoint (IBIE) for overall survival (OS) in patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). In randomized phase III trials, rPFS showed good correlation with OS at the individual trial level. We aimed to assess the correlation between the hazard ratios (HR) of IBIE and OS among PCWG2-based randomized trials.

Materials and methods

PubMed and EMBASE databases were systematically searched for randomized trials evaluating systemic treatments on mCRPC using PCWG2 up to April 15, 2020. Hazard ratios for OS and IBIEs were extracted and their correlation was assessed using
