Ten-year quality of life outcomes in men with prostate cancer

Key points: • Many prostate cancer survivors face ongoing decrements in health-related quality of life (HRQoL) • The long-term trajectories of men with prostate cancer are not well described • To our knowledge, this is the first substantive prospective study to track men's HRQoL, life satisfaction and symptom burden ten years from diagnosis • Androgen deprivation therapy (ADT), multiple comorbidities, younger age and socioeconomic disadvantage are risk indicators for poorer long-term HRQoL after prostate cancer. • Risk indicators need to be incorporated into survivorship care planning to facilitate personalised care for men most at risk of poorer physical and mental health
