Recommendation Men with advanced prostate cancer should be advised that resistance exercise and moderate to strenuous physical activity with expert supervision/support can improve quality of life and muscular fitness and reduce fatigue and the impact of fatigue on daily living. Unstable bone lesions and co-morbidities such as cardiovascular disease are exclusion criteria for studies on this topic and so are likely contraindications for this approach. Grade D 2.4 Effect of sexual functioning interventions No studies specifically addressed this question for men with locally advanced, advanced or metastatic prostate cancer. Neither have ways to help homosexual men and their partners cope sexually after prostate cancer been addressed, which is a further gap in the evidence. One low-quality study of men with localised disease was identified. Canada et al 37 recruited 84 couples to a randomised controlled trial comparing a couple’s focussed intervention with a patient-only intervention. Patients were men who were survivors of localised prostate cancer previously treated with surgery or radiotherapy. The intervention included sexual education, behavioural homework, sexual communication and stimulation skills. Partner participation did not improve outcomes. Only 61% of participants completed the intervention. This could reflect reduced feasibility, acceptability or efficacy of the intervention. At three months post-intervention, patients who had completed the intervention (counselling) had less overall distress (p
2.5 Effect of interventions to alleviate partner distress No studies specifically addressed this question for men with advanced prostate cancer. Two lowquality studies with the female partners of men with localised or mixed-stage disease were 37, 38 identified. Manne et al 38 randomly assigned 60 wives of men with prostate cancer to either a psycho-education group or no treatment, and assessed a range of adjustment outcomes. Most of the women had husbands with stage II prostate cancer (68%). One month after completion of the group, by comparison to controls, women in the intervention group had less denial (p
