Effect on Overall Survival of Locoregional Treatment in a Cohort of De Novo Metastatic Prostate Cancer Patients: A Single Institution Retrospective Analysis From the Royal Marsden Hospital

Abstract: Micro-AbstractWe retrospectively evaluated the effect of locoregional treatment (LRT) on overall survival (OS) in 300 metastatic at diagnosis (M1) prostate cancer patients. LRT was associated in univariate and multivariate analysis with longer OS, which remained significant for radiotherapy but not for transurethral prostatectomy. These data support further prospective evaluation of the benefit of local control in this patient population.

“…The trend for longer OS with lower NLR may also be due to the increased immunity seen in patients lower NLR, which may in turn increase the efficacy of therapy by facilitating an abscopal effect, where a response is observed in lesions that are distant from the site of treatment. This effect has been seen with both radiotherapy [ 29 , 30 ], and, more recently, studies have suggested it may occur with radium-223 [ 31 , 32 ]. Regarding prior docetaxel, the trend for OS observed in this study is similar to ALSYMPCA, in which median OS with radium-223 was numerically longer in patients without prior docetaxel (with vs without prior docetaxel: 14.4 vs 16.1 months); however, the hazard ratio of radium-223 to placebo was similar (0.70 vs 0.69) regardless of prior docetaxel [ 33 ].…”

“…In different tumour types, these ablative doses of radiation apart from achieving high local control rates are able to produce the known systemic antitumour activity called the abscopal effect and this phenomenon could at least partially explain the benefit of MDT on the malignant disease course in general (Decaestecker et al, 2014). It is known that the local inflammatory reactions generated by RT activate immune signals and contribute to better antigen cross-presentation leading to CD8+ cytotoxic T-cell activation, converting the irradiated tumour into an immunogenic host and contribute both to the local response to RT and to a systemic elimination of metastases (Bianchini et al, 2017). Unfortunately, prostate cancer is not a very immunogenic tumour, but still, ongoing clinical trials are exploring this synergy of radiation and immunotherapy (Modena et al, 2016).…”

“…The local inflammation involves more efficient antigen cross-presentation and immune activation leading to CD8+ cytolytic T cell responses. However, the precise underlying the mechanism of the abscopal effect, which we describe in more detail below, remains unclear (166, 167).…”
