Epidemiologic studies have reported inconsistent associations of vitamin D and prostate cancer risk; however, few have adequately controlled for detection bias related to prostate-specific antigen (PSA) screening, and the results of many studies may be affected by occult prostate cancers among controls.
Data for this nested case-control analysis (n = 1,695 cases/1,682 controls) are from the Prostate Cancer Prevention Trial. Baseline serum was analyzed for 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D]. The presence or absence of cancer was subsequently determined by prostate biopsy. Polytomous logistic regression models were used to estimate associations of 25(OH)D with risk of total, Gleason 2-6, Gleason 7, and Gleason 8-10 prostate cancer. Results are presented for placebo and finasteride arms separately and combined.
There were no associations of serum 25(OH)D with total prostate cancer risk. For Gleason 2-6 cancers, results were inconsistent across treatment arms with a suggestion of increased risk in the placebo arm only; however, there was no dose-response relationship. For Gleason 8-10 prostate cancers, 25(OH)D concentrations were associated with a linear decrease in risk among combined treatment arms [quartile 4 vs. 1: OR, 0.55; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.32-0.94; P(trend) = 0.04]. These findings were somewhat stronger among men ≥65 versus 55-64 years at baseline (quartile 4 vs. 1: OR, 0.40; 95% CI, 0.18-0.88 vs. OR, 0.73; 95% CI, 0.35-1.52, respectively; P(interaction) = 0.52).
Higher serum 25(OH)D may modestly increase risk of Gleason 2-6 disease and more substantially reduce risk of Gleason 8-10 prostate cancer.
Vitamin D may have different effects for different stages of prostate cancers.
流行病学研究报告了维生素D与前列腺癌风险之间的关联并不一致;然而,很少有研究能充分控制与前列腺特异性抗原(PSA)筛查相关的检测偏倚,而且许多研究的结果可能受到对照组中隐匿性前列腺癌的影响。
这项巢式病例对照分析(n = 1695例病例/1682例对照)的数据来自前列腺癌预防试验。对基线血清进行25-羟基维生素D [25(OH)D]分析。随后通过前列腺活检确定是否存在癌症。采用多分类逻辑回归模型来估计25(OH)D与总前列腺癌、Gleason 2-6级、Gleason 7级和Gleason 8-10级前列腺癌风险之间的关联。分别呈现安慰剂组和非那雄胺组以及合并组的结果。
血清25(OH)D与总前列腺癌风险之间无关联。对于Gleason 2-6级癌症,各治疗组的结果不一致,仅安慰剂组有风险增加的迹象;然而,不存在剂量反应关系。对于Gleason 8-10级前列腺癌,在合并治疗组中,25(OH)D浓度与风险呈线性降低相关[四分位数4与1相比:比值比(OR),0.55;95%置信区间(CI),0.32 - 0.94;P(趋势)= 0.04]。在基线时年龄≥65岁的男性中,这些发现比55 - 64岁的男性更强(四分位数4与1相比:OR,0.40;95% CI,0.18 - 0.88与OR,0.73;95% CI,0.35 - 1.52,分别;P(交互作用)= 0.52)。
较高的血清25(OH)D可能适度增加Gleason 2-6级疾病的风险,并更显著地降低Gleason 8-10级前列腺癌的风险。
维生素D对前列腺癌的不同阶段可能有不同影响。
