Long‐term outcomes of cribriform‐positive and cribriform‐negative prostate cancer treated with radical prostatectomy in the ProtecT trial

Puntos clave

To evaluate the long-term outcomes associated with cribriform status in prostate cancer after radical prostatectomy.
Analysis of the ProtecT trial data
Assessment of cribriform status as a binary outcome
Follow-up over a 15-year period
Identified risk of metastasis or death based on cribriform status
Higher risk in cribriform-positive, high-grade and/or pT3b tumours
Highlights need for targeted adjuvant therapy for specific populations

Resumen

In the ProtecT trial, the 15-year risk of metastasis or death after RP was a binary outcome defined by cribriform status. The concentration of risk in men with cribriform-positive, high-grade and/or pT3b tumours identifies a target population for adjuvant therapy trials, while supporting management de-escalation for most RP patients.
