Abstract 3630: First-line therapies and subjective cognitive function trajectories among international metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer survivors
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract Introduction: The standard of care for metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (mHSPC) has evolved with the expanded approval of androgen receptor pathway inhibitors (ARPIs) alongside androgen deprivation therapy (ADT). ADT alone has been shown to affect cognitive function. However, the cognitive impact of distinct treatment combinations remains unclear. We investigated the association between first-line systemic treatments and the trajectory of subjective cognitive function among mHSPC survivors in the International Registry for Men with Advanced Prostate Cancer (IRONMAN). Methods: This analysis included 2435 newly diagnosed mHSPC patients enrolled across 15 countries between July 2017 and August 2024. Treatments were reported by site personnel and physicians. For this analysis, we focused on first-line systemic treatment and classified treatment groups at enrollment as ADT monotherapy (referent), ADT + ARPIs, or ADT + chemotherapy. Subjective cognitive function was assessed via the EORTC QLQ-C30 Cognitive Function subscale, with patient-reported scores (range 0-100) collected at enrollment and every 3 months for up to 5 years; higher scores reflect better cognitive function. Associations were estimated using linear mixed effects models with clustering by study site and country to examine differences at enrollment and across trajectories of subjective cognitive function by first-line treatment, adjusting for demographic and clinical factors. Results: Median age at enrollment was 70 years, with a median follow-up of 1.7 years. 724 (30%) participants were treated with ADT monotherapy, 1317 (54%) with ADT + ARPIs, and 394 (16%) with ADT + chemotherapy. Mean cognitive function scores at enrollment were 85.4 (Standard Deviation [SD] 19.5) for participants treated with ADT monotherapy, 86.7 (SD 17.3) for ADT + ARPIs, and 86.7 (SD 18.0) for ADT + chemotherapy. Cognitive function scores decreased by -0.60 points (95% Confidence Interval [CI] -0.72, -0.48) per year among those treated with ADT monotherapy, with similar rates observed for those treated with ADT + chemotherapy. Participants treated with ADT + ARPIs had a slower decline in cognitive function, with scores decreasing by -0.36 points (95% CI -0.60, -0.08) per year. Conclusion: In this international cohort of mHSPC survivors, subjective cognitive function scores were generally high at enrollment but declined over time. There was no evidence of worse cognitive function in those treated with ADT + ARPIs nor ADT + chemotherapy over time compared to ADT monotherapy. Cognitive functioning is a key component of survivorship, and defining cognitive trajectories associated with first-line treatment can inform supportive interventions, patient treatment decision-making, and clinical guidelines.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
