Thanks Adrian. A lot of these studies also provide useful background information. For example 52300 diagnosis per year, I was working on an assumption of 40000. The number of prostatectomies 7000 I had assumed 9000 and the failure rate of prostatectomy which is 2000 a little less than 30%.
A shame they didn't break the remainder down in to RT per year and AS per year.
I would say the 80% survival is good but the fact it was only 72% met free survival is a little more worrying. Particularly as this is ten year survival, and for me diagnosed at 53 I am interested in the 30 year survival.
