Abstract
Objective
The role of additional docetaxel chemotherapy in the treatment of localised high-risk prostate cancer (PCa) remains a controversy. This meta-analysis aimed to investigate the effect of additional docetaxel chemotherapy on localised high-risk PCa.
Methods
A computerized search was performed in Pubmed, Embase, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, CBM, CNKI, VIP and Wanfang Data to collect clinical controlled trails on localised high-risk PCa treated with docetaxel chemotherapy from the inception to April 2019. The Review Manager 5.3 software was used to perform meta-analysis of survival data and adverse events.
Results
Six literatures were enrolled, including 3 187 patients. Compared with the standard treatment (local treatment combined with endocrine therapy) group, the progression-free survival (PFS) was prolonged in the standard treatment plus docetaxel group, and the difference was statistically significant. [hazard ratio(HR)=0.75, 95%CI 0.65-0.86, P<0.01]. Patients in the standard treatment plus docetaxel group had longer overall survival (OS) and biochemical recurrence-free survival (BRFS) in comparison with standard treatment group, but the difference was not statistically significant (HR=0.843, 95%CI 0.68-1.01, P=0.06; HR=0.86, 95%CI 0.69-1.07, P=0.17). In terms of safety, the incidence of adverse reactions was increased in the standard treatment plus docetaxel group, including the incidence of grade ≥3 neutropenia (RR=44.14, 95%CI 19.15-101.71, P<0.01), the incidence of grade ≥3 febrile neutropenia (RR=13.4, 95%CI 7.93-22.65, P<0.01) and the incidence of grade ≥3 diarrhea (RR=13.43, 95%CI 3.21-56.16, P<0.01).
Conclusions
Additional docetaxel chemotherapy could significantly improve the PFS in localised high-risk PCa patients. OS and BRFS were prolonged, but the difference was not statistically significant.

期刊介绍:
Chinese Journal of Urology (monthly) was founded in 1980. It is a publicly issued academic journal supervised by the China Association for Science and Technology and sponsored by the Chinese Medical Association. It mainly publishes original research papers, reviews and comments in this field. This journal mainly reports on the latest scientific research results and clinical diagnosis and treatment experience in the professional field of urology at home and abroad, as well as basic theoretical research results closely related to clinical practice.
The journal has columns such as treatises, abstracts of treatises, experimental studies, case reports, experience exchanges, reviews, reviews, lectures, etc.
Chinese Journal of Urology has been included in well-known databases such as Peking University Journal (Chinese Journal of Humanities and Social Sciences), CSCD Chinese Science Citation Database Source Journal (including extended version), and also included in American Chemical Abstracts (CA). The journal has been rated as a quality journal by the Association for Science and Technology and as an excellent journal by the Chinese Medical Association.
