Piotr Wysocki: Bone Pain and Survival Among Patients With mHSPC
Piotr Wysocki recently posted on LinkedIn:
“Bone pain is linked to worse overall survival (OS) in castration-resistant prostate cancer. However, its impact on survival in metastatic, hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (mHSPC) is not well recognized. A GETUG-15 study evaluating the addition of docetaxel to ADT revealed that baseline pain was an adverse prognostic factor regarding overall survival (OS).
Gabrael G et al. conducted a post hoc secondary analysis of the SWOG-1216 trial, randomized (1:1) 1279 newly diagnosed mHSPC patients to receive either androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) with orteronel or ADT with bicalutamide. The analysis included 1197 intention-to-treat patients with available bone pain status, of whom 25% had baseline bone pain, and 75% reported no bone pain.
Results:
Patients with bone pain were younger and had more high-volume disease.
Median PFS was 1.3 years (bone pain) and 3.7 years (no bone pain) – adjusted HR=1.46; P < .001.
Median OS: 3.9 years (bone pain) and Not reached (no bone pain) – adjusted HR for OS: 1.66; P < .001.
The post hoc analysis of the SWOG-1216 trial demonstrates that baseline bone pain in patients diagnosed with mHSPC represents an adverse prognostic factor in terms of both PFS and OS. This factor should be considered during initial treatment decisions, and I would discuss intensifying systemic treatment (ADT+abiraterone/darolutamide+docetaxel) in chemo-fit mHPSC patients with low-volume disease with accompanying bone pain.”
