Explanation?<br />

• Time to testosterone recovery relates to duration of<br />

ADT and strongly influences the time to biochemical<br />

relapse<br />

<br />

Results obtained on trials with only short term ADT<br />

may not generalize to studies randomizing between<br />

longer durations of ADT<br />

Other comments (from Denham et al.):<br />

1. <strong>PSA</strong>DT strongly dependent on #<strong>PSA</strong> values available<br />

2. Cut-point on <strong>PSA</strong>-DT or TTBF not clearly defined<br />

3. Need a meta-analysis validation
