Ursem C, Diaz-Ramirez LG, Boscardin J, Lee S. Changes in functional status associated with radiation for prostate cancer in older veterans. J Geriatr Oncol 2021; 12:808-812. [PMID: 33388282 PMCID: PMC8184565 DOI: 10.1016/j.jgo.2020.12.011] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/23/2020] [Revised: 12/14/2020] [Accepted: 12/18/2020] [Indexed: 11/16/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Although older men value maintaining independence and avoiding functional decline, little is known about their functional trajectories with receipt of prostate radiation. METHODS We performed a retrospective cohort study including veterans age 65+ with localized prostate cancer who resided in a VA nursing facility while receiving prostate radiation from 2005 to 2015. We evaluated the change in Minimum Data Set (MDS) activities of daily living (ADL) score during 6 months from the start of treatment. Because prior studies have shown Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI) to be a strong predictor of treatment-related toxicity, analysis included interaction with CCI. RESULTS We identified 487 patients with median age 73 (range 65-94). For the average patient in our cohort, the predicted MDS-ADL score worsened from 2.9 (95% CI 2.4-3.6) at the start of radiation to 3.8 (95% CI 3.1-4.8) at 3 months and then 4.5 (95% CI 3.5-5.7) at month 6. Patients with greater comorbidity (CCI ≥ 4) had worse functional outcomes in months 0-3 compared to patients with less comorbidity (CCI 0-3). MDS-ADL score worsened by 1.9 in the CCI ≥4 patients compared to 0.3 in the CCI 0-3 group During months 3-6, patients in both Charlson groups experienced similar worsening of MDS-ADL score. CONCLUSIONS In a vulnerable population of older patients with localized prostate cancer, radiation was associated with a decline in functional independence. Patients with higher comorbidity experienced more severe functional decline within the first 3 months of radiation therapy. In all comorbidity levels, functional status had not returned to baseline by 6 months.

Abstract
AIMS OF THE STUDY The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of testosterone deficiency on cognitive functions in metastatic prostate cancer patients receiving androgen deprivation therapy (ADT). METHODS In this multicentric prospective study, 65 metastatic prostate cancer patients were evaluated. Demographic and clinical data were recorded. Cognitive functions were assessed using the Symbol Digit Modalities Test, the California Verbal Learning Test Second Edition, the Brief Visuospatial Memory Test-Revised, and the Trail Making Test. Depressive symptoms were assessed using the Beck Depression Inventory. Cognitive functions and depressive symptoms were recorded before the androgen deprivation therapy and at the 3- and 6-month follow-ups. RESULTS At the basal cognitive assessment, the mean Symbol Digit Modalities Test, the California Verbal Learning Test Second Edition, the Brief Visuospatial Memory Test-Revised scores were 25.84 ± 17.54, 32.68 ± 10.60, and 17.63 ± 11.23, respectively, and the mean time for the Trail Making Test was 221.56 ± 92.44 seconds, and were similar at the 3-month, and 6-month controls (P > .05). The mean pretreatment, third and sixth month testosterone levels were 381.40 ± 157.53 ng/dL, 21.61 ± 9.09 ng/dL and 12.25 ± 6.45 ng/dL (P < .05), and the total PSA levels were 46.46 ± 37.83 ng/mL, 1.41 ± 3.31 ng/mL and 0.08 ± 0.14 ng/mL (P < .05), respectively. CONCLUSION The ADT in patients with metastatic prostate cancer does not affect patients' cognitive functions and depressive symptoms. However, further prospective randomised studies with higher cohorts and longer follow-up periods are needed.

Abstract
Prostate cancer (PC) is primarily a disease of older men. As the risk of neurocognitive decline increases as people age, cognitive dysfunction is a potential complication in men with PC, imposing detrimental effects on functional independence and quality of life. Importantly, risk of cognitive decline may increase with exposure to androgen deprivation therapy and other hormonal therapies. Particular consideration should be given to patients with castration-resistant PC (CRPC), many of whom require continuous, long-term androgen deprivation therapy combined with a second-generation androgen receptor inhibitor. Non-comparative evidence from interventional trials of androgen receptor inhibitors in men with non-metastatic CRPC suggests differential effects on cognitive function and central nervous system-related adverse events within this drug class. Drug-drug interactions with concomitant medications for chronic, non-malignant comorbidities differ among ARIs and thus may contribute further to cognitive impairment. Hence, establishing baseline cognitive function is a prerequisite to identifying subsequent clinical decline associated with androgen receptor-targeted therapies. Although brief, sensitive screening tools for cancer-related cognitive dysfunction are lacking, mental status can be ascertained from the initial medical history and neurocognitive examination, progressing to more in-depth evaluation when impairment is suspected. On-treatment neurocognitive monitoring should be integrated into regular clinical follow-up to preserve cognitive function and quality of life throughout disease management. This review summarizes the multiple factors that may contribute to cognitive decline in men with CRPC, awareness of which will assist clinicians to optimize individual treatment. Practical, clinic-based strategies for managing the risks for and symptoms of cognitive dysfunction are also discussed.

Analysis of Brain Functions in Men with Prostate Cancer under Androgen Deprivation Therapy: A One-Year Longitudinal Study. Life (Basel) 2021; 11:life11030227.

Abstract
The relationship between cognitive decline and androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) under luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LHRH) analogues is unclear, and there is a scarcity of longitudinal studies considering the interaction between cognition, depressive symptoms and sleep quality in men with prostate cancer (PCa) treated with ADT. This study aimed to determine if there were differences in the scores obtained in cognitive assessment, depressive symptoms, and sleep quality after one year of ADT and determine the interrelations between sleep, mood, and cognitive status. A prospective longitudinal observational study was designed, in which a cohort of men (mean age was 70.8 years) newly treated with androgen-deprivation therapy was assessed in the first six months of treatment and 12 months later. Analysis of cognitive function by the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) scores indicated a significant (p < 0.05) increase after one year of treatment and by the Brief Scale for Cognitive Evaluation (BCog) scores indicated no changes in the scores before and after one year of treatment. Analysis of depressive symptoms with the Geriatric Depression Scale and sleep quality with the Athens Insomnia Scale (AIS) scores showed significant (p < 0.05) changes after one year of treatment with ADT, with men describing more depressive symptoms and more sleep disturbances. No statistically significant differences were found in the cognitive performance between men with impaired sleep or depression results and those without them. Our study showed no clinical evidence of the relationship between ADT under luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LHRH) analogues and cognitive deterioration in 1-year follow-up, but there are impairments in the sleep quality in men with PCa undergoing ADT and an increase in depressive symptoms which has important implications for clinicians as they would impair quality of life and adherence to treatment.

Abstract
The expansion of the indication to use androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) to treat patients with advanced or metastatic prostate cancer has dramatically increased over the recent decades, resulting in the progress of patients’ survival. However, chronic health implications can become more apparent as the number of long-term cancer survivors is expected to be increased along with the adverse effect of ADT. In particular, interest in investigating ADT, especially luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LHRH) agonist association with cognitive dysfunction has been growing. Previous studies in animals and humans suggest that the level of androgen decreases with age and that cognitive decline occurs with decreases in androgen. Correspondingly, some of the extensive studies using common neurocognitive tests have shown that LHRH agonists may affect specific domains of cognitive function (e.g., visuospatial abilities and executive function). However, the results from these studies have not consistently demonstrated the association because of its intrinsic limitations. Large-scale studies based on electronic databases have also failed to show consistent results to make decisive conclusions because of its heterogeneity, complexity of covariates, and possible risk of biases. Thus, this review article summarizes key findings and discusses the results of several studies investigating the ADT association with cognitive dysfunction and risk of dementia from various perspectives.

Alzheimer Gene BIN1 may Simultaneously Influence Dementia Risk and Androgen Deprivation Therapy Dosage in Prostate Cancer. Am J Clin Oncol 2021; 43:685-689.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) is extensively used in prostate cancer. Yet the risk of impaired cognition or Alzheimer disease (AD) in men with prostate cancer receiving ADT is uncertain. Some studies of prostate cancer and ADT suggest that the risk of AD is not increased. But other studies have found an increased risk of AD and cognitive impairment. OBJECTIVES As the uncertainty about ADT and dementia might relate to the genetics of prostate cancer and AD, the authors used the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) to examine the relationship in men with prostate cancer between genes implicated in AD and genes implicated in prostate cancer. METHODS The authors examined the genomics of 492 prostate cancer cases in the Genomic Data Commons (GDC) TCGA Prostate Cancer (PRAD) data set. To access and analyze the data, 2 web-based interfaces were used: (1) the UCSC Xena browser, a web-based visual integration and exploration tool for TCGA data, including clinical and phenotypic annotations; and (2) cBioportal, a web-based interface that enables integrative analysis of complex cancer genomics and clinical profiles. RESULTS Co-occurrence analysis indicates that alterations in the prostate cancer gene Speckle-type POZ protein (SPOP) significantly co-occur with alterations in the AD gene BIN1 (P<0.001). The presence of somatic mutations (deleterious and missense/in frame) in SPOP deranges BIN1 gene expression. SPOP/BIN1 RNA gene expression in 492 prostate cancer specimens is significantly correlated (P<0.001). Increased expression of SPOP in 492 prostate cancers is associated with reduced survival (P=0.00275). Men receiving pharmacologic therapy had a tumor with a significantly higher Gleason score (P=0.023). Gleason score and BIN1 RNA gene expression, unit log2 (fragments per kilobase of transcript per million mapped reads upper quartile [FPKM-UQ]+1), in 499 prostate cancer specimens were significantly inversely correlated (P<0.001). CONCLUSIONS BIN1 forms part of a network that interacts with the MYC oncogene, activated at the earliest phases of prostate cancer and in its position on chr8q24 linked to disease aggressiveness. Dynamic regulation of the BIN1-Tau interaction is involved in AD. BIN1 loss in AD allows phosphorylated tau to be mis-sorted to synapses, which likely alters the integrity of the postsynapse, alongside reducing the functionally important release of physiological forms of tau. Alzheimer symptoms are usually preceded by a preclinical phase that may be 16 years long. The authors suggest that the ADT dosage reflects the severity of a process that is already underway. The severity is determined by the genetics of the tumor itself, at least in part by BIN1. ADT is not causing new cases of AD. The oncologist treats higher-grade prostate cancer with more ADT, which serves as a surrogate marker for disease severity. Our analysis of TCGA data does not support the idea that ADT causes AD or dementia.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION We examined the association between androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) use and the risk of mild cognitive impairment (MCI) among prostate cancer patients. METHODS We included 241 cognitively unimpaired men, aged 70 to 90, with a history of prostate cancer before enrollment in the population-based Mayo Clinic Study of Aging. Using the Rochester Epidemiology Project medical records-linkage system, ADT use and length of exposure were abstracted. Follow-up visits occurred every 15 months and MCI diagnoses were made based on clinical consensus. Cox proportional hazards models, with age as the timescale, were used to examine the association between ADT use (yes/no) and length of exposure with the risk of MCI adjusting for education, apolipoprotein E, depression, and the Charlson Index score. RESULTS There was no association between any ADT use (27.8% of participants) and the risk of MCI in the multivariable model [hazard ratio (HR), 1.25; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.75-2.10]. Although not significant, there was an ADT dose-response relationship for risk of MCI: <5 years versus no use (HR, 1.08; 95% CI, 0.60-1.96) and ≥5 years versus not use (HR, 1.89; 95% CI, 0.83-4.27). CONCLUSION ADT use among prostate cancer patients was not associated with an increased risk of developing MCI.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Increases in fatigue, depressive symptomatology, and cognitive impairment are common after the initiation of androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) for prostate cancer. To date, no studies have examined the potential role of inflammation in the development of these symptoms in ADT recipients. The goal of the current study was to examine circulating markers of inflammation as potential mediators of change in fatigue, depressive symptomatology, and cognitive impairment related to the receipt of ADT. METHODS Patients treated with ADT for prostate cancer (ADT+; n = 47) were assessed around the time of the initiation of ADT and 6 and 12 months later. An age- and education-matched group of men without a history of cancer (CA-; n = 82) was assessed at comparable time points. Fatigue, depressive symptomatology, and cognitive impairment were assessed with the Fatigue Symptom Inventory, the Center for Epidemiological Studies Depression Scale, and a battery of neuropsychological tests, respectively. Circulating markers of inflammation included interleukin 1 receptor antagonist (IL-1RA), interleukin 6 (IL-6), soluble tumor necrosis factor receptor II (sTNF-RII), and C-reactive protein (CRP). RESULTS Fatigue, depressive symptomatology, and serum IL-6 increased significantly over time in the ADT+ group versus the CA- group; rates of cognitive impairment also changed significantly between the groups. No significant changes in IL-1RA, sTNF-RII, or CRP over time were detected. Treatment-related increases in IL-6 were associated with worsening fatigue but not depressive symptomatology or cognitive impairment. CONCLUSIONS Results of this preliminary study suggest that increases in circulating IL-6, perhaps due to testosterone inhibition, may play a role in fatigue secondary to receipt of ADT. Additional research is needed to determine whether interventions to reduce circulating inflammation improve fatigue in this population.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Evidence suggests that patients with prostate cancer (PCPs) receiving androgen-deprivation therapy (ADT) are at risk for cognitive impairment. Research with other populations with cancer indicates that cognitive impairment may also occur before systemic treatment. The authors assessed cognitive impairment in untreated PCPs referred to ADT and explored associations with structural brain networks, endocrine status, and selected genotypes. METHODS Forty untreated PCPs and 27 healthy controls (HCs) who completed a questionnaire package underwent neuropsychological testing, magnetic resonance imaging, and blood sampling. Cognitive impairment was defined as a z score ≤-2 on 1 neuropsychological test or ≤-1.5 on 2 neuropsychological tests. Structural brain networks were investigated using diffusion-weighted imaging and graph theory. Associations of cognitive performance with patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs), brain networks, testosterone levels, and genotypes (apolipoprotein ε [APOE], catechol-O-methyltransferase [COMT], and brain-derived neurotrophic factor [BDNF]) were explored. RESULTS PCPs performed poorer than HCs on 7 of 15 neuropsychological tests and exhibited a higher frequency of cognitive impairment (57.5% vs 22.2%; P ≤ .01 to .03). All neuropsychological outcomes were associated with ≥1 PROM (P ≤ .01 to .04). Compared with the HC group, the PCP group exhibited altered global network organization as well as disrupted regional network characteristics in frontal and temporal regions (P < .01). PCPs had lower testosterone levels (P < .01) than HCs, which correlated with better visuospatial performance (r = -0.33; P = .04). No effects were found of APOE, COMT, or BDNF. CONCLUSIONS The current results suggest that untreated PCPs may demonstrate cognitive impairment and that psychological and behavioral symptoms (PROMs), as well as impairment in structural brain networks, might be the underlying mechanisms.

Abstract
CONTEXT Novel androgen receptor axis-targeting drugs (ARATs) have been shown to improve outcomes in men with prostate cancer. Central nervous system androgen blockade may be harmful for older adults who may be at increased risk of adverse cognitive and psychologic effects. OBJECTIVE To systematically evaluate the effect of ARATs on cognition and depression in men with metastatic prostate cancer. EVIDENCE ACQUISITION We searched PubMed and EMBASE for articles published in English between September 2012 and September 2019 reporting cognition and depression outcomes in men receiving ARATs for metastatic prostate cancer using validated psychometric tools. The level of evidence and risk of bias were assessed using the GRADE approach for randomized clinical trials and observational studies. RESULTS 15 reports studying 8954 men with metastatic castration-sensitive and -resistant, or non-metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer were identified. Data were available for abiraterone, enzalutamide and apalutamide but not darolutamide. The mean (and 95% confidence interval) and median (and min-max) of the absolute scores and changes from baseline were included, when available. There was heterogeneity in the psychometric tools used which obviated statistical pooling of results. Very limited data assessing cognition suggested that abiraterone was associated with improved cognitive functioning or perhaps less cognitive harm versus enzalutamide. Fourteen reports assessed emotional wellbeing. ARATs reduced depressive symptoms when compared to prednisone alone or placebo but not compared to bicalutamide. Abiraterone may improve short-term emotional functioning relative to enzalutamide. The quality of evidence was low when examining ARAT effect on cognitive function and moderate when examining ARAT effect on depression. CONCLUSIONS Depression was assessed more frequently than cognition in men receiving ARATs. Self-reported depression measures favored abiraterone over enzalutamide and both abiraterone and enzalutamide over placebo. Data evaluating apalutamide and darolutamide are lacking. Further studies of ARATs using validated clinician-based psycho-cognition tools along with self-reported measures in men with metastatic prostate cancer are needed.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Prostate cancer progresses, despite androgen-deprivation therapy, the backbone of its treatment. This progression is mainly related to the androgen receptor (AR)-related mechanisms of resistance, and, several AR-targeted therapies have demonstrated benefit in metastatic and nonmetastatic disease. Apalutamide is a third-generation AR-targeted therapy which competitively blocks the AR and prevents AR dimerization, nuclear internalization, thereby avoiding cancer progression. Early studies have demonstrated that apalutamide was safe and demonstrated clinical benefit. Phase II and phase III studies had confirmed preliminary results of clinical benefit with apalutamide in patients with nonmetastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (nmCRPC) and in metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (mHSPC). AREAS COVERED Herein, the authors discuss the development of apalutamide, from its discovery and early studies to phase III trials. They also examine new perspectives and biomarkers that may help oncologists to make decisions in patients taking apalutamide. Studies evaluating apalutamide in other settings and in combination with other therapies are also debated. EXPERT OPINION Apalutamide has become a relevant therapy for patients with nmCRPC and mHSPC for its benefit in delaying metastasis in addition to its improvement of overall survival, without compromising the quality of life. Apalutamide should be considered as a standard-of-care for patients with nmCRPC and patients with mHSPC.

Evaluation of Cognitive Function in Trials Testing New-Generation Hormonal Therapy in Patients with Prostate Cancer: A Systematic Review. Cancers (Basel) 2020; 12:cancers12092568. [PMID: 32916886 PMCID: PMC7564823 DOI: 10.3390/cancers12092568] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/03/2020] [Revised: 08/31/2020] [Accepted: 09/07/2020] [Indexed: 02/08/2023] Open
Abstract
Simple Summary In patients with prostate cancer, the use of new-generation hormonal therapy, added to androgen deprivation therapy, requires careful evaluation of cognitive function. The aim of this systematic review is to describe the evidence about cognitive function in randomized trials testing new-generation hormonal therapy (abiraterone, enzalutamide, apalutamide, darolutamide). For each trial, we assessed the availability of both investigator-assessed cognitive impairment and disorders and patient-reported evaluation of cognitive function. Out of 19 trials, the investigator-based evaluation of cognitive impairment was available in seven (36.8%), while patient-reported evaluation of cognitive function results was presented only in one trial (5.3%). This analysis shows that, despite cognitive deterioration could be relevant in patients with prostate cancer, clinical development of new-generation hormonal drugs has not included a systematic evaluation of cognitive function. Abstract In patients with prostate cancer, earlier use and longer duration of new-generation hormonal therapy (NGHT), added to androgen deprivation therapy, requires careful evaluation of cognitive function. The aim of this systematic review is to describe the evidence about cognitive function in all the randomized trials (RCTs) testing NGHT (abiraterone, enzalutamide, apalutamide, darolutamide). We assessed the availability of both investigator-assessed cognitive impairment and disorders and patient-reported evaluation of cognitive function. Nineteen RCTs (17,617 patients) were included. The investigator-based evaluation of cognitive impairment was available in seven RCTs (36.8%). In total, 19/19 RCTs (100%) included patient-reported outcomes (PROs) collection, but PRO tools adopted allowed evaluation of cognitive function in two RCTs (10.5%). Among them, PRO-based cognitive function results were presented only in one RCT (5.3%): in ENZAMET, mean changes from baseline were worse with enzalutamide than with placebo, but deterioration-free survival favored enzalutamide. Despite cognitive deterioration could be relevant, clinical development of NGHT has not included a systematic evaluation of cognitive function. Assessment by investigators is at risk of underreporting, and commonly used PROs do not allow proper cognitive function analysis. Furthermore, the methodology of analysis can jeopardize the interpretation of results. Although direct comparisons are scanty, there could be differences between different NGHTs.

[PMID: 32777867 PMCID: PMC8443997 DOI: 10.5534/wjmh.200092] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/09/2020] [Revised: 06/25/2020] [Accepted: 07/03/2020] [Indexed: 11/29/2022] Open
Abstract
Androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) is used to block the release of androgen in prostate cancer to promote the regression of cancer cells, and hence, disease progression. Its indication has been widened from the metastatic setting to the localized setting in prostate cancer. Long-term ADT for suppressing androgen release leads to a rapid decrease in androgen, termed as andropause, resulting in several dose and duration dependent adverse effects, including cognitive dysfunction such as dementia. Many retrospective and prospective studies, as well as meta-analyses, have attempted to confirm the crucial relationship between ADT and cognitive dysfunction, but pro and contrary opinions regarding this issue are ongoing owing to the absence of randomized controlled trials. Additionally, several recent studies have suggested the negative effects of dose- and duration-dependent ADT on cognitive dysfunction, especially in 40–65-year-old patients with prostate cancer, who are currently active workers in the society. This review article discusses several studies examining the influence of ADT on mental health based on diverse significant perspectives, especially cognitive dysfunction.

Longitudinal Analysis of Depression and Anxiety Symptoms as Independent Predictors of Neurocognitive Function in Primary Brain Tumor Patients. Int J Radiat Oncol Biol Phys 2020; 108:1229-1239. [PMID: 32634542 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijrobp.2020.07.002] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/10/2020] [Revised: 04/30/2020] [Accepted: 07/01/2020] [Indexed: 01/18/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE Primary brain tumor patients are vulnerable to depression and anxiety symptoms, which may affect their neurocognitive functioning. We performed a prospective longitudinal analysis to examine the association between depression and anxiety symptoms and domain-specific neurocognitive functioning in primary brain tumor patients receiving radiation therapy (RT). METHODS AND MATERIALS On a prospective trial, 54 primary brain tumor patients receiving RT underwent comprehensive neurocognitive evaluation at baseline (pre-RT), and 3, 6, and 12 months post-RT. Neurocognitive assessments measured attention/processing speed, verbal and visuospatial memory, and executive functioning, including Delis-Kaplan Executive Function System Trail-Making Test (DKEFS-TMT), DKEFS Verbal Fluency, and Brief Visuospatial Memory Test-Revised. Depression and anxiety symptoms were also assessed at each time point with Beck Depression and Anxiety Inventories (BDI-II and BAI), respectively. Higher scores reflect more numerous or severe depression or anxiety symptoms. Univariable and multivariable linear mixed-effects models assessed associations between BDI-II and BAI scores and domain-specific neurocognitive scores over time, controlling for pre-existing depression or anxiety disorders and other patient, tumor, and treatment characteristics. RESULTS Higher BAI scores were associated with worse attention and processing speed in univariable analyses: DKEFS-TMT visual scanning (P = .003), number sequencing (P = .011), and letter sequencing (P <.001). On multivariable analyses, these associations remained significant (all P ≤ .01). Higher BDI-II scores were also associated with poorer attention/processing speed (DKEFS-TMT Letter Sequencing) in univariable (P = .002) and multivariable (P = .013) models. Higher BAI scores were associated with worse visuospatial memory (Brief Visuospatial Memory Test-Revised Delayed Recall) on univariable (P = .012) but not multivariable analyses (P = .383). Similarly, higher BDI-II scores were associated with poorer executive functioning (DKEFS Verbal Fluency Category Switching) on univariable (P = .031) but not multivariable analyses (P = .198). CONCLUSIONS Among primary brain tumor patients receiving RT, increased depression and anxiety were independently associated with worsened neurocognition, particularly in attention/processing speed. Depression and anxiety symptoms should be controlled for in prospective clinical trials and managed in the clinical setting to optimize neurocognitive functioning.

[PMID: 31844181 PMCID: PMC7237350 DOI: 10.1038/s41391-019-0195-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 33] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/08/2019] [Revised: 11/07/2019] [Accepted: 11/18/2019] [Indexed: 12/24/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) is the backbone of systemic therapy for men with prostate cancer (PC); almost one-half of patients receive treatment during their disease course. However, a range of cognitive and other central nervous system (CNS) changes have been associated with ADT. In this review, we discuss extant data describing these complications and the mechanisms through which medications used to deliver ADT may affect them. METHODS We performed a MEDLINE search for appropriate papers published between January 2000 and December 2018. Relevant papers were selected and reviewed; additional publications were identified by manually assessing references from included papers, and recent congress abstracts. RESULTS Of ~230 search outputs, 33 were selected for inclusion. Some studies suggested a clear association between ADT and CNS effects in men with PC, whereas others did not. Accurate assessment is limited by test instrument variability, inadequate sample sizes, short follow-up duration, and limited prospective longitudinal studies. The approved second-generation androgen receptor (AR) inhibitors enzalutamide and apalutamide were associated with some CNS-related adverse events (AEs) in clinical studies, including fatigue (which can interfere with cognitive function). The androgen synthesis inhibitor abiraterone acetate was associated with a low CNS AE profile when compared with enzalutamide. The AR antagonist darolutamide demonstrated a comparable incidence of cognitive disorder in clinical trials to that of ADT alone. CONCLUSIONS Adequately caring for men receiving ADT requires an understanding of the symptoms, incidence and magnitude of cognitive effects, and a feasible approach to cognitive assessment and management in clinical settings. Some CNS effects could relate to blood-brain barrier penetration and direct AR inhibitor activity; drug safety profiles may differ by the degree of blood-brain barrier penetration of particular agents. Ongoing clinical trials seek to define the CNS tolerability of newer AR pathway-targeted therapy options more clearly.

Optimizing the role of androgen deprivation therapy in advanced prostate cancer: Challenges beyond the guidelines. Prostate 2020; 80:527-544.

Abstract
BACKGROUND For specific clinical indications, androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) will induce disease prostate cancer (PC) regression, relieve symptoms and prolong survival; however, ADT has a well-described range of side effects, which may have a detrimental effect on the patient's quality of life, necessitating additional interventions or changes in PC treatment. The risk-benefit analysis for initiating ADT in PC patients throughout the PC disease continuum warrants review. METHODS A 14-member panel comprised of urologic and medical oncologists were chosen for an expert review panel, to provide guidance on a more judicious use of ADT in advanced PC patients. Panel members were chosen based upon their academic and community experience and expertise in the management of PC patients. Four academic members of the panel served as group leaders; the remaining eight panel members were from Large Urology Group Practice Association practices with proven experience in leading their advanced PC clinics. The panel members were assigned to four separate working groups, and were tasked with addressing the role of ADT in specific PC settings. RESULTS This article describes the practical recommendations of an expert panel for the use of ADT throughout the PC disease continuum, as well as an algorithm summarizing the key recommendations. The target for this publication is all providers (urologists, medical oncologists, radiation oncologists, or advanced practice providers) who evaluate and manage advanced PC patients, regardless of their practice setting. CONCLUSION The panel has provided recommendations for monitoring PC patients while on ADT, recognizing that PC patients will progress despite testosterone suppression and, therefore, early identification of conversion from castrate-sensitive to castration resistance is critical. Also, the requirement to both identify and mitigate side effects of ADT as well as the importance of quality of life maintenance are essential to the optimization of patient care, especially as more combinatorial therapeutic strategies with ADT continue to emerge.

Abstract
The increasing use of eHealth has ushered in a new era of patient-centred cancer care that moves beyond the traditional in-person care model to real-time, dynamic, and technology-assisted assessments and interventions. eHealth has the potential to better the delivery of cancer care through improved patient-provider communication, enhanced symptom and toxicity assessment and management, and optimised patient engagement across the cancer care continuum. In this Review, we provide a brief, narrative appraisal of the peer reviewed literature over the past 10 years related to the uses of patient-centred eHealth to improve cancer care delivery. These uses include the addressal of symptom management, health-related quality of life, and other patient-reported outcomes across cancer care. In addition, we discuss the challenges of, and opportunities for, accessibility, scalability, and implementation of these technologies, important areas for further development, and future research directions.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The association of prostate cancer and androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) use with the odds of developing mild cognitive impairment (MCI) was determined in men from the population-based Mayo Clinic Study of Aging (MCSA). METHODS The study included 2513 men (mean age of 73.1 y) enrolled in the MCSA. A history of prostate cancer, ADT use, and length of ADT exposure before their first MCSA visit was abstracted using the Rochester Epidemiology Project medical records-linkage system. MCI was diagnosed at the baseline visit. Logistic regression was used to determine whether prostate cancer and ADT use was associated with odds of MCI. RESULTS Of the 2513 participants, 349 (13.9%) had a history of prostate cancer; among whom 99 (28.3%) were treated with ADT before MCSA enrollment. There were 382 (15.2%) with a diagnosis of MCI. In the univariate logistic regression models, prostate cancer (odds ratio, 1.50; 95% confidence interval, 1.12-2.00), and ADT exposure (odds ratio, 1.57; 95% confidence interval, 0.96-2.58) were associated with higher odds of MCI. These associations were greatly attenuated and not significant in multivariable models. CONCLUSIONS Neither a diagnosis of prostate cancer nor ADT use was associated with odds of MCI in this cross-sectional population-based study.

Abstract
Introduction: Cognitive impairment caused by chemotherapies, a condition known as chemobrain, is a possible side effect that affects alertness, learning, memory, and concentration.Areas covered: Chemobrain has been principally investigated as a possible side-effect among cancer patients. However, numerous drugs used to treat hematological malignancies can determine the appearance of chemobrain. In this review, we have examined some commonly used drugs for the treatment of hematological malignancies which are known to have a deleterious action on cognitive functions.Numerous mechanisms have been suggested, comprising the direct neurotoxicity of chemotherapeutic drugs, oxidative stress, genetic predisposition, cytokine-provoked damage, histone modifications, immune alteration, and the action of chemotherapeutic on trophic factors and structural proteins of brain cells.Expert commentary: Cognitive dysfunction provoked by the treatment of hematological diseases is an actual challenge in clinical practice. Actually, there are no totally efficient and innocuous treatments for this syndrome. It is important that further investigations specify the existence of predictors and gravity factors to pre- and post-therapy cognitive change and identify the influence of tumor treatments on the cognitive alterations in long-term, cancer survivors. Moreover, future studies are needed to analyze the interactions between genetic risk, amyloid accumulation, intrinsic brain networks, and chemotherapy.

Can Comprehensive Geriatric Assessment Predict Tolerance of Radiotherapy for Localized Prostate Cancer in Men Aged 75 Years or Older? Cancers (Basel) 2020; 12:cancers12030635.

Abstract
Curative radiotherapy for prostate cancer is common in the elderly. However, concerns about potential toxicity have inhibited access to radiotherapy for this population, for whom preserving quality of life (QoL) is crucial. The primary endpoint was to identify predictors of impaired QoL in men aged 75 years or older treated with curative intent radiotherapy with or without androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) for localized prostate cancer. We prospectively performed comprehensive geriatric assessment (CGA) and administered QoL questionnaires to 208 elderly (>75 years) patients prior to, plus two and six months after, radiotherapy (NCT 02876237). The median age of the patients was 77 years (range 75–89). At the start of the study, comorbidities were highlighted in 65% of patients: 23% were depressed, 23% had cognitive impairment, and 16% had reduced independence. At six months, 9% of patients had a consistently decreased QoL (>20 points), and a further 16% had a more moderate reduction (10 to 20 points) in QoL. None of the parameters studied (tumor characteristic, treatment, or oncogeriatric parameters) were predictive of a reduced QoL following radiotherapy. Though co-existing geriatric impairment was common, QoL was maintained for 75% of patients six months after radiotherapy. CGA was poorly predictive of tolerance of prostatic radiotherapy. Geriatric assessments dedicated to quality of life following radiotherapy need to be developed.

Abstract
Background: We previously developed and psychometrically validated a self-reported memory problem (SRMP) measure using principal component analysis. In the present study, we applied item response theory (IRT) analysis to further examined the construct validity and determine item-level psychometric properties for the SRMP.Methods: The sample included 530 female breast cancer survivors (61% non-Hispanic White, mean age = 57 years) who were recruited from community-based organizations and large health care systems. We examined the construct validity, item-level psychometric properties, and differential item functioning (DIF) of the SRMP using confirmatory factor analysis (CFA), IRT and logistic regression analysis models.Results: The CFA confirmed a one-factor structure for the SRMP (comparative fit index [CFI] = 0.996, root-mean-square-error-approximation [RMSEA] = 0.059). As expected, SRMP scores correlated significantly with pain, mood, and fatigue; but not spiritual health locus of control (SPR). DIF analysis showed no measurement differences based on race/ethnicity and age groups.Conclusion: The CFA and DIF analysis supported the construct validity of the SRMP and its use in an ethnically diverse breast cancer population. These findings provide further evidence of the generalizability for the SRMP, and support its utilization as a psychometrically valid and reliable screening measure of cancer and treatment-related memory difficulties.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Patient reported outcomes (PROs) are increasingly utilized in cancer drug development, and are of particular importance in genitourinary cancers due to symptom burden, multiple treatment options with similar efficacy, and often prolonged duration of disease. Here we review current data and perspectives related to use of PROs in drug development for genitourinary cancers, including insights on the regulatory process for drug approval. RECENT FINDINGS The FDA is committed to incorporating PRO data into the regulatory process for development and approval of new cancer drugs, but challenges exist due to lack of standardization of PRO instrument choice and analytic approach, missing data, and difficulty isolating treatment effect from disease-related effects. We review guidance for standardization of PRO methodology that is nonetheless tailored to disease state and anticipated effects of treatment. PRO and efficacy data should be simultaneously analyzed and reported for best clinical practice. Multiple disease-specific PRO instruments exist for genitourinary cancers. While clinicians, researchers, and regulatory bodies alike recognize the importance of PROs in cancer drug development, challenges remain regarding implementation of best practices.

Abstract
Androgens are some of the most important sex hormones in men, and they maintain important physiological activities in the human body. Cognitive impairment is one of the most common manifestations of aging in the elderly population and an important factor affecting the quality of life of elderly individuals. The levels of sex hormones in elderly people decrease with age, and low levels of androgens in older male individuals have been closely linked to the development of cognitive impairment. Basic studies have shown that androgens have neuroprotective effects and that androgen deficiency impairs cognitive function by increasing oxidative stress and decreasing synaptic plasticity, among other effects. Additionally, clinical studies have also shown that androgen deficiency is closely related to cognitive impairment. This article reviews the relationship between low androgen levels and cognitive impairment, their potential mechanisms, and the effects of testosterone supplementation in improving cognition.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Advances in diagnostic and therapeutic strategies in oncology have significantly increased the chance of survival of cancer patients, even those with metastatic disease. However, cancer-related cognitive impairment (CRCI) is frequently reported in patients treated for non-central nervous system cancers, particularly during and after chemotherapy. DESIGN This review provides an update of the state of the art based on PubMed searches between 2012 and March 2019 on 'cognition', 'cancer', 'antineoplastic agents' or 'chemotherapy'. It includes the most recent clinical, imaging and pre-clinical data and reports management strategies of CRCI. RESULTS Evidence obtained primarily from studies on breast cancer patients highlight memory, processing speed, attention and executive functions as the most cognitive domains impaired post-chemotherapy. Recent investigations established that other cancer treatments, such as hormone therapies and targeted therapies, can also induce cognitive deficits. Knowledge regarding predisposing factors, biological markers or brain functions associated with CRCI has improved. Factors such as age and genetic polymorphisms of apolipoprotein E, catechol-O-methyltransferase and BDNF may predispose individuals to a higher risk of cognitive impairment. Poor performance on neuropsychological tests were associated with volume reduction in grey matter, less connectivity and activation after chemotherapy. In animals, hippocampus-based memory and executive functions, mediated by the frontal lobes, were shown to be particularly susceptible to the effects of chemotherapy. It involves altered neurogenesis, mitochondrial dysfunction or brain cytokine response. An important next step is to identify strategies for managing cognitive difficulties, with primary studies to assess cognitive training and physical exercise regimens. CONCLUSIONS CRCI is not limited to chemotherapy. A multidisciplinary approach has improved our knowledge of the complex mechanisms involved. Nowadays, studies evaluating cognitive rehabilitation programmes are encouraged to help patients cope with cognitive difficulties and improve quality of life during and after cancer.

Abstract
RATIONALE Androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) is an effective treatment for prostate cancer, but induces profound cognitive impairment. Little research has addressed mechanisms underlying these deficits or potential treatments. This is an unmet need to improve quality of life for prostate cancer survivors. OBJECTIVES We investigated mechanisms of cognitive impairment after ADT in rats and potential utility of the multimodal serotonin-targeting drug, vortioxetine, to improve the impairment, as vortioxetine has specific efficacy against cognitive impairment in depression. METHODS Male Sprague-Dawley rats were surgically castrated. Vortioxetine (28 mg/kg/day) was administered in the diet. The attentional set-shifting test was used to assess medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) executive function. Afferent-evoked field potentials were recorded in the mPFC of anesthetized rats after stimulating the ventral hippocampus (vHipp) or medial dorsal thalamus (MDT). Gene expression changes were assessed by microarray. Effects of vortioxetine on growth of prostate cancer cells were assessed in vitro. RESULTS ADT impaired cognitive set shifting and attenuated responses evoked in the mPFC by the vHipp afferent, but not the MDT. Both the cognitive impairment and attenuated vHipp-evoked responses were reversed by chronic vortioxetine treatment. Preliminary investigation of gene expression in the mPFC indicates that factors involved in neuronal plasticity and synaptic transmission were down-regulated by castration and up-regulated by vortioxetine in castrated animals. Vortioxetine neither altered the growth of prostate cancer cells in vitro nor interfered with the antiproliferative effects of the androgen antagonist, enzalutamide. CONCLUSIONS These results suggest that vortioxetine may be useful in mitigating cognitive impairment associated with ADT for prostate cancer.

Risk of Dementia and Depression in Young and Middle-aged Men Presenting with Nonmetastatic Prostate Cancer Treated with Androgen Deprivation Therapy. Eur Urol Oncol 2019; 4:66-72. [PMID: 31624049 DOI: 10.1016/j.euo.2019.08.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/09/2019] [Revised: 07/17/2019] [Accepted: 08/13/2019] [Indexed: 02/05/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Previous studies have found an association between androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) and an increased risk of dementia and depression in elderly men. This association remains controversial, and little is known about the effects of ADT in younger men. OBJECTIVE To examine the association between the receipt of ADT and these outcomes in young men aged 40-64 yr presenting with nonmetastatic prostate cancer (PCa). DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS For this observational study, we identified 9117 men aged 40-64 yr diagnosed with localized PCa between 2007 and 2014, without a pre-existing neurocognitive diagnosis, using the TRICARE military database. OUTCOME MEASUREMENTS AND STATISTICAL ANALYSIS Kaplan-Meier curves were fitted to compare ADT versus no ADT. We also performed a subgroup analysis in patients undergoing ADT for ≥12 mo. The association between ADT and new-onset dementia or depression was evaluated using inverse-probability-of treatment-weight-adjusted Cox proportional hazards regression analysis. RESULTS AND LIMITATIONS Patients receiving ADT had a significantly higher incidence of depression (30.2 vs 15.8 per 1000 person years) and dementia (17.9 vs 7.5 per 1000 person years). The risk of developing either outcome was higher in the ADT cohort (depression: hazard ratio [HR] 2.07, p < 0.001; dementia: HR 1.70, p = 0.052). Additionally, there was a dose-response relationship between the duration of ADT and either outcome. CONCLUSIONS In our cohort of young men with PCa, the receipt of ADT was associated with an increased risk of developing dementia and depression. Long-term use of ADT was associated with the highest risk of neurocognitive outcomes. PATIENT SUMMARY In this study, we looked at the risk of dementia and depression in patients <65 yr of age undergoing androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) for prostate cancer. We found that these patients had a higher risk of dementia and depression than those who did not undergo ADT.

Abstract
Anxiety and depressive disorders are more prevalent in hypogonadal men. Low testosterone levels are associated with greater negative symptoms and impaired cognition in men with schizophrenia. Thus, androgens may contribute to brain pathophysiology in psychiatric disorders. We investigated androgen-related mRNAs in post-mortem dorsolateral prefrontal cortex of psychiatric disorders. We also assessed androgen receptor (AR) CAG trinucleotide repeat length, a functional AR gene variant associated with AR gene expression, receptor activity, and circulating testosterone. AR CAG repeat length was determined from genomic DNA and AR and 5α-reductase mRNAs measured using quantitative PCR in schizophrenia, bipolar disorder and control cases [n = 35/group; Stanley Medical Research Institute (SMRI) Array collection]. Layer-specific AR gene expression was determined using in situ hybridisation in schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, major depressive disorder and control cases (n = 15/group; SMRI Neuropathology Consortium). AR mRNA was increased in bipolar disorder, but was unchanged in schizophrenia, relative to controls. AR and 5α-reductase mRNAs were significantly positively correlated in bipolar disorder. AR CAG repeat length was significantly shorter in bipolar disorder relative to schizophrenia. AR mRNA expression was highest in cortical layers IV and V, but no layer-specific diagnostic differences were detected. Together, our results suggest enhanced cortical androgen action in people with bipolar disorder.

Abstract
Prostate cancer is the most common cancer of men over 50 years old. Localized prostatic cancer treatment may be responsible of a decline of patient's quality of life. The main actors of treatment are now focused on minimizing functional consequences of treatments. The radiation oncologist has a central role in patient monitoring. The follow-up is codified by official recommendations of learned societies to enhance the post-cancer period. The main objective of this article is to review the recommendations for clinical and biological follow-up. An inventory of the functional consequences of the various treatments will be detailed, and particularly those caused by androgen deprivation therapy, with a review of precautions before implementation, adverse effects and their management, as well as monitoring recommendations. The analysis of quality of life after curative treatment and suggestions to improve monitoring will also be discussed.

Abstract
Androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) is a treatment used across the prostate cancer disease spectrum and works by suppressing testicular androgen production to castrate levels. Although ADT can provide survival benefits, it is also associated with increased risk for cardiovascular disease, metabolic syndrome, increased visceral fat mass, dyslipidemia, decreased arterial compliance, and diminished health-related quality of life. The Staying Strong And Healthy protocol is a telephone-delivered intervention led by a nurse coordinator to minimize the increased cardiovascular and metabolic risks associated with ADT. This study will evaluate the feasibility of the protocol and provides the foundation for future behavioral interventions across diverse populations of men on ADT.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Prostate cancer (PC) is the most frequent neoplasia in the male population and androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) is frequently used in the management of the disease. AIM To evaluate the effect of ADT exposure on cognitive status, grey matter volume (GMV) and white matter lesion (WML) load. METHODS Fifty ADT patients and fifteen PC-non-ADT (control) patients were included in the study. A neuropsychological evaluation was performed and a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), with anatomical T1 and FLAIR sequences, was performed to evaluate the GMV and the WML burden. RESULTS Most of the patients included in the study presented a significant cognitive impairment (CI). No significant differences were identified in the cognitive assessment between the studied groups, but when considering the educational background intragroup differences were found.No significant difference of GMV and WML volume were identified between groups, but a negative relationship between the ADT period and the GMV was identified. Furthermore, a significant positive association between the age and the lesion volume was found in the ADT group (β=.406; p=.004). CONCLUSION PC patients exposed to ADT present an acceleration of age-related brain changes, such as WML development and GMV loss.

DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS A population-based cohort study of 5570 men who underwent radical prostatectomy in Denmark from 1998 to 2011 was identified in the Danish Prostate Cancer Registry. OUTCOME MEASUREMENTS AND STATISTICAL ANALYSIS Data on covariates and primary outcome defined as a hospital contact for depression or a redeemed antidepressant prescription were obtained from nationwide Danish registries. The risk of depression was evaluated using cumulative incidence functions and Cox models with time since surgery as an underlying time scale. Exposure to salvage procedures was included as time-varying covariates, and analyses were adjusted for confounders. RESULTS AND LIMITATIONS The cumulative incidence of depression was increased in men who had undergone surgery compared with cancer-free men throughout follow-up of up to 18yr, particularly among men on androgen deprivation therapy. Compared with no subsequent treatment, the risk of depression was increased with subsequent androgen deprivation therapy (hazard ratio [HR] 1.8, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.4-2.3), salvage radiation (HR 1.3, 95% CI 1.0-1.6), and the treatments combined (HR 2.2, 95% CI 1.8-2.8) after adjustments for age, year of surgery, income, and cohabitation status. Further adjustment for comorbidity hardly changed the estimates. CONCLUSIONS Radical prostatectomy and subsequent salvage procedures increase the risk of depression, and men with subsequent androgen deprivation therapy are mainly at risk. Clinicians should thus be aware of depressive symptoms in patients receiving treatment for postsurgical relapse. PATIENT SUMMARY In a population-based study, we found that radical prostatectomy and subsequent treatments with either radiation or endocrine manipulation significantly increased the risk of developing clinical depression.

Abstract
Genetic variations of breast cancer survivors (BCS) may contribute to level of residual symptoms, such as depression, stress, fatigue, and cognitive impairment. The objective of this study was to investigate whether particular single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) moderated symptom improvement resulting from the Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction for Breast Cancer (MBSR[BC]) program. An overarching goal of personalized medicine is to identify individuals as risk for disease and tailor interventions based on genetic profiles of patients with diseases including cancer. BCS were recruited from Moffitt Cancer Center and University of South Florida's Breast Health Program and were randomized to either the 6-week MBSR(BC) program (n = 92) or Usual Care (n = 93). Measures of symptoms, demographic, and clinical history data were attained at baseline, 6 weeks, and 12 weeks. A total of 10 SNPs from eight genes known to be related to these symptoms were studied using genomic DNA extracted from blood. Our results were examined for effect sizes, consistency, and statistical significance (p < .05). Three SNPs (rs4680 in COMT, rs6314 in HTR2A, and rs429358 in APOE) emerged as having the strongest (though relatively weak) and most consistent effects in moderating the impact of the MBSR program on symptom outcomes. Although effects were generally weak, with only one effect withstanding multiple comparisons correction for statistical significance, this translational behavioral research may help start the identification of genetic profiles that moderate the impact of MBSR(BC). The ultimate goal of this study is the development of personalized treatment programs tailored to the genetic profile of each patient.

Abstract
Importance The association between androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) exposure and dementia is uncertain. Objective To analyze the association between ADT exposure and diagnosis of Alzheimer disease or dementia among elderly men with prostate cancer. Design, Setting, and Participants This retrospective cohort study used data from the National Cancer Institute's Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results-Medicare linked database. Participants were 154 089 elderly men newly diagnosed with prostate cancer between 1996 and 2003. The analyses were conducted between November 1, 2018, and December 31, 2018. Exposure Androgen deprivation therapy. Main Outcomes and Measures Patients receiving ADT within 2 years of prostate cancer diagnosis were identified. Survival analysis was used to determine the association between ADT exposure and diagnosis of Alzheimer disease or dementia in the follow-up period. Propensity score and instrumental variable approaches were used to minimize measured and unmeasured selection bias. The association by dose of ADT was also examined. Results Of the 295 733 men diagnosed with prostate cancer between 1996 and 2003, 154 089 met the study criteria. Of these, 62 330 (mean [SD] age, 76.0 [6.0] years) received ADT within 2 years of prostate cancer diagnosis, and 91 759 (mean [SD] age, 74.3 [6.0] years) did not receive ADT. Mean (SD) follow-up was 8.3 (4.7) years. Exposure to ADT, compared with no ADT exposure, was associated with a diagnosis of Alzheimer disease (13.1% vs 9.4%; difference, 3.7%; 95% CI, 3.3%-3.9%; P < .001; hazard ratio [HR], 1.14; 95% CI, 1.10-1.18) and dementia (21.6% vs 15.8%; difference, 5.8%; 95% CI, 5.4%-6.2%; P < .001; HR, 1.20; 95% CI, 1.17-1.24). For 1 to 4 doses of ADT, the HR was 1.19 (95% CI, 1.15-1.24) for Alzheimer disease and 1.19 (95% CI, 1.15-1.23) for dementia. For 5 to 8 doses of ADT, the HR was 1.28 (95% CI, 1.22-1.35) for Alzheimer disease and 1.24 (95% CI, 1.19-1.29) for dementia. For more than 8 doses of ADT, the HR was 1.24 (95% CI, 1.16-1.34) for Alzheimer disease and 1.21 (95% CI, 1.15-1.28) for dementia. The number needed to harm was 18 patients (95% CI, 17-19 patients) and 10 patients (95% CI, 9.5-11 patients) for Alzheimer disease and dementia, respectively. Conclusions and Relevance Among elderly patients with prostate cancer, ADT exposure was associated with subsequent diagnosis of Alzheimer disease or dementia over a follow-up period of at least 10 years.

Abstract
Background: Cancer-related cognitive impairment (CRCI) is a commonly reported complaint among non-CNS cancer patients. Even subtle CRCI may have detrimental effects on quality of life and identifying patients at increased risk for CRCI to improve survivorship care is important. In the present paper, we systematically reviewed available studies of possible genetic risk factors for developing CRCI. Methods: Keyword-based systematic searches were undertaken on 24 July 2018 in PubMed, Web of Science, The Cochrane Library, and CINAHL. Three authors independently evaluated full-texts of identified papers and excluded studies with registration of reasons. Seventeen studies reporting results from 14 independent samples were included for review. Two authors independently quality assessed the included studies. The review was preregistered with PROSPERO (CRD42018107689). Results: Ten studies investigated apolipoprotein E (APOE), with four studies reporting that carrying at least one risk allele (APOE4 (ε4)) was associated with CRCI, while six studies found no association. The remaining identified genetic risk variants associated with CRCI located in: COMT, four DNA repair genes, five oxidative stress genes, 22 genes related to breast cancer phenotype, and GNB3. No associations were found between CRCI and genes coding for interleukin-6 (IL6), tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF), interleukin 1 beta (IL1B), and brain-derived neurotropic factor (BDNF). With the exception of APOE, the genetic risk factors had only been investigated in one or two studies each. Conclusions: Overall, the available evidence of possible genetic risk factors for CRCI is limited. While some research suggests a role for the ε4 allele, the literature is generally inconsistent, and the currently available evidence does not allow clear-cut conclusions regarding the role of genetic factors in the development of CRCI. Larger genetic studies and studies investigating additional genetic variants are needed to uncover genetic risk factors for CRCI.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There is conflicting evidence regarding the association between androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) for prostate cancer (PC) and the risk of developing stroke and thromboembolic events. Our study evaluated the association between ADT use and development of stroke, transient ischemic attack (TIA), deep vein thrombosis (DVT), and pulmonary embolism (PE) in a homogenous group of men with PC treated with definitive radiation therapy (RT) after controlling for multiple sources of confounding. METHODS Observational cohort study of patients diagnosed with PC at the US Department of Veterans Affairs between 1 January 2001 and October 31, 2015 and treated with definitive RT. Exposure was initiation of ADT within 1 year of PC diagnosis. Primary outcomes were development of stroke, TIA, DVT, or PE. RESULTS 44,246 men with median follow-up of 6.8 years. The overall cumulative incidences of stroke, TIA, DVT, and PE at 10 years were 6.0, 3.0, 3.4, and 1.9%, respectively. In the multivariable competing risks model, there was a significant association between ADT and stroke (subdistribution hazard ratio (SHR) = 1.19, 95% CI = 1.09-1.30, p < 0.01), TIA (SHR = 1.24, 95% CI = 1.08-1.41, p < 0.01), and DVT (SHR = 1.18, 95% CI = 1.04-1.34, p < 0.01). ADT was only associated with PE in men receiving ADT for > 1 year (SHR = 1.34, 95% CI = 1.06-1.69, p-value = 0.03). CONCLUSION We observed an increase in the risk of stroke, TIA, and DVT in men receiving ADT and an increased risk of PE in men receiving long-term ADT. These results highlight concerns regarding long-term risks of ADT on stroke and thromboembolic events in the treatment of PC.

Abstract
Objectives To study whether androgen deprivation therapy (ADT), the mainstay treatment for advanced and disseminated prostate cancer, is associated with risk of dementia. Methods Risk of dementia in men with prostate cancer primarily managed with ADT or watchful waiting (WW) in the Prostate Cancer Database Sweden, PCBaSe, was compared with that in prostate cancer‐free men, matched on birth year and county of residency. We used Cox regression to calculate the hazard ratios (HRs) for Alzheimer's and non‐Alzheimer's dementia (vascular dementia, dementia secondary to other diseases or unspecified dementias) for different types and duration of ADT and oral antiandrogens (AAs) as well as for men managed with WW. Results A total of 25 967 men with prostate cancer and 121 018 prostate cancer‐free men were followed for a median of 4 years. In both groups 6% of the men were diagnosed with dementia. In men with prostate cancer, gonadotropin‐releasing hormone agonist treatment ( HR 1.15, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.07–1.23) and orchiectomy (HR 1.60, 95% CI 1.32–1.93) were associated with an increased risk of dementia, as compared to no treatment in prostate cancer‐free men; however, this increase in risk was only observed for non‐Alzheimer's dementia and occurred from year 1–4 after start of ADT. No increase in risk for any type of dementia was observed for men treated with AAs or for men on WW. Conclusion This population‐based cohort study does not support previous observations of an increased risk of Alzheimer's dementia for men on ADT; however, there was a small increase in risk of non‐Alzheimer's dementia.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Prostate cancer (PC) is one of the most common malignant tumors in developed countries. Both PC and treatment for PC have an adverse impact on physical and mental well-being, and are associated with decreased quality of life. The aim of the present study was to examine the relationship between neuropsychological symptoms and clinical course in PC patients undergoing radical prostatectomy with or without adjunct therapy. METHODS The cohort comprised 100 patients aged 50-77 years who underwent radical, laparoscopic prostatectomy for PC. Twenty-three patients with a more advanced clinical stage also received adjuvant therapy (radiotherapy and hormonotherapy). Clinical evaluation included self-report assessment, physical examination, and biochemical tests (testosterone and prostate-specific antigen). In addition, the presence and intensity of sexual dysfunction, urinary dysfunction, anxiety-depressive symptoms, and cognitive dysfunction were assessed. RESULTS The group of patients undergoing complex therapy was characterized by a significantly worse result of deferred memory (p=0.04). A significant correlation was found between post-surgery erectile function and scores for the visual working memory test (correct answers; VWMT-C; p=0.006) and Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale depression (p=0.045) and anxiety scores (p=0.02). A trend toward significance was also observed for simple reaction time (correct answers; p=0.09). A significant correlation was found between results for the delayed verbal memory test and all physical symptoms (International Consultation on Incontinence Questionnaire-total, p=0.02; International Index of Erectile Function-5, p=0.006). Similarly, a significant correlation was found between the VWMT-C and score for sexual dysfunction (p=0.003). CONCLUSION Patients undergoing both surgical and adjunct therapy for PC are at risk for psychological burden and cognitive disorders. In the present cohort, physical complications of therapy were associated with depression, anxiety, and delayed memory dysfunction. Furthermore, this study has proven that fewer complications after surgery are associated with better psychological and cognitive functioning. Appropriate neuropsychological and psychiatric care can improve compliance and quality of life among patients after prostatectomy.
