Popis: We evaluated whether an increased body-mass index (BMI) and decreased physical activity increase the risk of locally advanced or high-risk prostate cancer (PCa) at radical prostatectomy (RP), and treatment failure after surgery.Data were collected from the PROCURE Biobank, a prospective cohort of patients with localized PCa undergoing RP in four academic centers in Québec between 2006 and 2013. Treatment failure was defined as biochemical recurrence and/or initiation of secondary, non-adjuvant therapy, and analyzed using the Kaplan-Meier method, log-rank tests, and Cox proportional-hazards models. Uni- and multivariate (ordered) logistic regression was used for time-independent variables.1813 patients were included. Median follow-up time was 69 months. Patients who reported a lower BMI were generally older, of Asian descent, and physically more active (p 0.05). Younger, black, and overweight/obese patients reported less physical activity (p 0.05). In multivariate analyses, a higher BMI increased the risk for locally advanced, high-risk PCa (defined as a pT3, N1 and/or Gleason 8-10 tumor; odds ratio 1.33, p 0.001), but increased physical activity did not predict high-risk disease (odds ratio 0.84, p = 0.39). Patients with a higher BMI also had a larger prostate at surgery (odds ratio 1.13, p = 0.03). BMI and physical activity were not associated with positive surgical margins or time to treatment failure (p 0.05).BMI was an independent predictor for locally advanced, high-risk disease in this cohort of PCa patients undergoing RP, but was unrelated to treatment failure. Physical activity was not related to locally advanced, high-risk PCa or treatment failure.
