About this study

Official title: Promoting Quality of Care: a Prospective Cohort Study of Localized and Locally Advanced Prostate Cancer Patients

This study aims to evaluate the use of a digital solution, integrated into the electronic health record, for prospective and structured reporting of clinical and patient-reported outcomes for patients diagnosed with localized or locally advanced prostate cancer.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • standard of careOther

    No other procedures than those performed during the usual care for prostate cancer patients will be done. No study medication will be provided as part of participation.

    Clinical outcomes will be reported via predefined electronic forms, integrated into the electronic health record (EHR). Patient-reported outcomes will be collected electronically.

    All treatment decisions will be made at the discretion of the investigator or treating physician.

Study groups in NCT04694924
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Localized and locally advanced prostate cancerLocalized prostate cancer (cT1a-T2c N0 M0) refers to the clinical condition where cancer is confined to the prostate gland, in the absence of lymph node invasion or metastases. Locally advanced refers to the extension of the tumor beyond the capsule of the prostate (cT3-T4) or the clinical presence of nodal invasion (cN+), without metastases.
Receives: Other: standard of care

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Assessment of systematically reporting a standardized set of predefined clinical parameters

    The proportion of patients who are enrolled in the registry over the total localized and locally advanced prostate cancer patients

    Measured: up to 10 years after diagnosis

  2. Assessment of systematically collecting a predefined set of patient-reported outcomes

    The proportion of patients who completed all questionnaires over the total of questionnaires send.

    Measured: up to 10 years after diagnosis

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Occurence of disease recurrence/progression

    Biochemical prostate specific antigen (PSA) recurrence/progression and recurrence/progression based on medical imaging

    Measured: up to 10 years after diagnosis

  2. General quality of life

    Assessment of health-related quality of life in prostate cancer patients. Measured by EORTC Quality of Life Questionnaire C30 (QLQ-C30). The EORTC QLQ-C30 is a generic QoL questionnaire designed to cover issues important to all cancer patients

    Measured: at diagnosis, 6 months, 1 year, and annually up to 10 years after diagnosis

  3. Prostate cancer specific quality of life

    Measured by Extended Prostate cancer Index Composite 26 (EPIC26). EPIC-26 is a validated instrument that measures the quality of life across 5 disease-specific domains: urinary incontinence, urinary obstruction and irritation, bowel-related symptoms, sexual dysfunction, and hormonal symptoms.

    Measured: at diagnosis, 6 months, 1 year, and annually up to 10 years after diagnosis

  4. Overall Survival (OS)

    Overall survival is defined as the time from enrollment to date of death due to any cause.

    Measured: up to 10 years after diagnosis

  5. Prostate Cancer (PC)-related Mortality (PM)

    PC-related mortality is the death due to prostate cancer.

    Measured: up to 10 years after diagnosis
