Health-Related Quality Of Life In Patients With Low Risk, Localized Prostate Cancer Randomized To Radical Prostatectomy Or Brachytherapy


OBJECTIVES:

- Compare changes in health-related quality of life (HRQOL) in patients with stage II
prostate cancer up to 2 years after treatment with radical prostatectomy or
brachytherapy.

- Compare the effect of baseline HRQOL, age, and other covariates on HRQOL improvement or
deterioration in these patients up to 10 years after these treatments.

- Compare the effect of treatment modality on HRQOL improvement or deterioration in these
patients up to 10 years after these treatments.

- Compare the effects of treatment failure on HRQOL, in terms of disease progression, in
these patients.

OUTLINE: Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 arms on ACOSOG-Z0070 (radical prostatectomy vs
brachytherapy).

Patients in both arms complete a quality of life questionnaire at baseline, 2 and 6 months
after treatment, and then at 1, 2, 4, 7, and 10 years after treatment.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 500 patients (250 per group) will be accrued for this study
within 2 years.
