PurposeAmong patients with biochemical recurrence after radical prostatectomy, we found previously that postoperative prostate-specific antigen doubling time (PSADT) was associated with risk of prostate cancer death. However, given the small number of patients in the highest risk PSADT subgroup, it is unclear which PSADT subgroups contribute the greatest to prostate cancer - specific death and how this influences all-cause mortality.Patients and MethodsThis study was a retrospective analysis of 379 patients treated with radical prostatectomy between 1982 and 2000 who had a biochemical recurrence and PSADT data available. Mean and median follow-up after surgery was 11.4 ( standard deviation, 5.4) and 11.0 years, respectively ( range, 1.6 to 23.0 years).ResultsShorter PSADT was significantly associated with prostate cancer - specific and all-cause mortality ( P = 15 months) had a greater risk of competing-causes mortality compared with that from prostate cancer.ConclusionAmong a select cohort of young, healthy patients with PSA recurrence after radical prostatectomy and a PSADT less than 15 months, prostate cancer accounted for an estimated 90% of all deaths by 15 years after recurrence. The majority of prostate cancer deaths occurred among patients with an intermediate PSADT ( 3.0 to 8.9 months).
