Real-world data (RWD), that is, data from sources other than controlled clinical trials, play an increasingly important role in medical research. The development of quality clinical registers, increasing access to administrative data sources, growing computing power and data linkage capacities have contributed to greater availability of RWD. Evidence derived from RWD increases our understanding of prostate cancer (PCa) aetiology, natural history and effective management. While randomised controlled trials offer the best level of evidence for establishing the efficacy of medical interventions and making causal inferences, studies using RWD offer complementary evidence about the effectiveness, long-term outcomes and safety of interventions in real-world settings. RWD provide the only means of addressing questions about risk factors and exposures that cannot be “controlled”, or when assessing rare outcomes. This review provides examples of the value of RWD for generating evidence about PCa, focusing on studies using data from a quality clinical register, namely the National Prostate Cancer Register (NPCR) Sweden, with longitudinal data on advanced PCa in Patient-overview Prostate Cancer (PPC) and data linkages to other sources in Prostate Cancer data Base Sweden (PCBaSe).

5074 Background: Novel assessments of efficacy are needed to improve determination of treatment outcomes in clinical trials and in real-world settings. Methods: Cancer treatments usually lead to concurrent regression and growth of the drug-sensitive and drug-resistant fractions of a tumor, respectively. We have exploited novel methods of analysis that assess these two simultaneous processes and have estimated rates of tumor growth ( g) and regression ( d) in over 30,000 patients (pts) with diverse tumors. Results: In prostate cancer (PC) we have analyzed both clinical trial and real-world data from Veterans. Using clinical trial data from 6819 pts enrolled in 15 treatment arms we have established separately and by combining all the data that g correlates highly (p<0.0001) with overall survival (OS) – slower g associated with better OS. In PC, abiraterone (ABI) and docetaxel (DOC) are superior to placebo, prednisone and mitoxantrone. ABI (median g =0.0017) is superior to DOC ( g=0.0021) in first line (p=0.0013); and ABI in 2nd line ( g=0.0034) is inferior to ABI in 1st line ( g=0.0017; p<0.0001). Finally, using combined clinical trial data as a benchmark we could assess the efficacy of novel therapies in as few as 30-40 patients. Amongst 7457 Veterans, the median g on a taxane ( g=0.0022) was similar to that from clinical trials ( g=0.0012). Although only 258 Veterans received cabazitaxel (CAB), g values for CAB ( g=0.0018) and DOC ( g=0.0023) were indistinguishable (p=0.3) consistent with their identical mechanism of action. Finally, outcomes with DOC in African American (AA) ( g=0.00212) and Caucasian ( g=0.00205) Veterans were indistinguishable (p=0.9) and comparable across all VAMCs. Conclusions: The rate of tumor growth, g, is an excellent biomarker for OS both in clinical trials and in real-world settings. g allows comparisons between trials and for large trial data sets to be used as benchmarks of efficacy. Real-world outcomes in the VAMCs are similar to those in clinical trials. In the egalitarian VAMCs DOC efficacy in PC is comparable in AA and Caucasian Veterans -- indicating inferior outcomes reported in AAs are likely due to differential health care access, not differences in biology.

Radium 223

180 Background: Radium-223 (RA-223) is the first FDA approved targeted alpha therapy that significantly improves overall survival (OS) in patients (pts) with metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) with symptomatic bone metastases. There is limited real world data describing RA-223 current use. Methods: A retrospective patient chart review was done of men who received at least 1 cycle of Ra-223 for mCRPC in 10 centers throughout the US (4 academic, 6 private practices). All pts had a minimum follow-up of 4 months, or placed in hospice or death. Descriptive analyses for clinical characteristics and treatment outcomes were performed. Results: Among the 200 pts (mean age-73.6 years, mean Charlson comorbidity index-6.9) RA-223 was initiated on average 1.6 years from mCRPC diagnosis (first line use (1L)=38.5%, 2L=31.5% and ≥3L=30%). 78% completed 5-6 cycles of RA-223 with mean therapy duration of 4.2 months. Among all pts, 43% received RA-223 as monotherapy (no overlap with other mCRPC therapies) while 57% had combination therapy with either abiraterone or enzalutamide. Median OS following RA-223 initiation was 21.2 months (95% CI 19.6- 29.2). Table provides the RA-223 utilization by type of clinical practice. Conclusions: Utilization of RA-223 in this real world data set was distinct from clinical trial data. Most patients received RA-223 in combination with abiraterone or enzalutamide, therapies that were unavailable when the pilot trial was conducted. Median survival was 21.2 months. Real world use of RA-223 has evolved as newer agents have become FDA approved in bone-metastatic CRPC. Academic and community patterns of practice were more similar than distinct. [Table: see text]
