We aimed to compare the outcome of curative treatment options in localised Prostate Cancer (PCa) amongst HIV positive (HIV+) men.
A systematic search of the Cochrane Library of Systematic Reviews, the Scopus and PubMed databases was performed (January 1995 to November 2015) using pre-determined search terms. Outcome measures for comparison included the rate of biochemical failure (BCF), survival benefit and complications.
A total of 14 eligible articles were identified for inclusion, representing a total of 202 HIV+ men with PCa. Radical Prostatectomy was performed in 40/153 compared to 109/153 patients undergoing alternative (non-surgical) treatments options. Only 3 studies compared outcomes within their respective study cohort. One study (n = 10) reported BCF results with 1/2 BCF patient in the surgical arm vs. 1/8 BCF positive patients in the non-surgical arm (mean 46 months follow-up), while two other studies reported no occurrences of BCF within both arms of their studies.
Due to paucity in the literature, there is insufficient evidence to support a certain treatment modality arm specifically for HIV+ men with localized PCa. An individualized management algorithm seems feasible within this cohort, until more definitive studies are performed.
我们旨在比较针对HIV阳性(HIV+)男性局限性前列腺癌(PCa)的根治性治疗方案的结果。
使用预先确定的检索词,对Cochrane系统评价图书馆、Scopus和PubMed数据库进行了系统检索(1995年1月至2015年11月)。用于比较的结果指标包括生化失败(BCF)率、生存获益和并发症。
共确定了14篇符合纳入标准的文章,代表了总共202例患有PCa的HIV+男性。153例患者中40例接受了根治性前列腺切除术,而153例患者中109例接受了替代(非手术)治疗方案。只有3项研究在各自的研究队列中比较了结果。一项研究(n = 10)报告了BCF结果,手术组有1/2例BCF患者,非手术组有1/8例BCF阳性患者(平均随访46个月),而另外两项研究报告其研究的两组均未发生BCF。
由于文献资料匮乏,没有足够的证据支持专门针对患有局限性PCa的HIV+男性的某种治疗方式。在进行更多确定性研究之前,在此队列中采用个体化管理算法似乎是可行的。
