About

To evaluate of the value of radical prostatectomy and extended pelvic lymph node dissection in locally advanced prostate cancer after neoadjuvant hormonal therapy with or without docetaxel chemotherapy.

Full description

Using larger sample prospective randomized controlled study design, and comparing neoadjuvant HT combined with docetaxel chemotherapy to neoadjuvant HT followed by RP and extended lymph node dissection to determine whether neoadjuvant HT combined with docetaxel chemotherapy can more effectively improve biochemical progression-free survival of locally advanced prostate cancer patients.

Further analysis was performed to determine whether the treatment regimen helped to prolong the radiologic progression-free survival (rPFS) or OS in these patients.

The pathological changes of tumor before and after neoadjuvant treatment were also analyzed. To search for the important risk factors influencing the long-term prognosis of these patients, the safety characteristics of patients in different treatment groups were analyzed. Therefore, it can provide the basis for the formulation of the optimal treatment plan for locally advanced prostate cancer, prolong the survival time of patients and improve the quality of life.
