formula

Prostate-specific antigen doubling time (PSADT) = ln(2) / x, Where x = slope of the relationship between ln(PSA, ng/mL) and time of PSA measurement (i.e., ln(PSAn) - ln(PSA1) / time between PSAnand PSA1, where n refers to a measurement >1)

evidence

PSA doubling time (PSADT) has been studied as a survival measure in prostate cancer. A retrospective review of 304 prostate cancer patients with biochemical recurrence demonstrated that PSA doubling time, Gleason Score, and length of time to biochemical recurrence following surgery were predictive of the risk for development of metastatic disease (Pound 1999). Metastatic disease-free survival was the longest among those with Gleason Scores 5-7, length of time to biochemical recurrence >2 years, and PSADT >10 months.

pearls

  • For patients with biochemical recurrence of prostate cancer, optimal PSADT calculation should include all PSA values of the individual within two years of initially documented PSA recurrence.

  • Entering more values improves accuracy of estimation.

  • Shorter PSADT reflects faster increase in PSA levels, while longer PSADT reflects a slower increase in PSA levels over time.

usecase

  • Patients with prostate cancer who have undergone radical prostatectomy or definitive radiation therapy and have biochemical recurrence, defined as confirmed PSA ≥0.2 ng/mL if radical prostatectomy or confirmed PSA rise of ≥2 ng/mL above the nadir PSA level if radiation therapy.

  • PSADT has limited value in prostate cancer screening or diagnosis.

reasons

In patients with biochemical recurrence, PSADT: Predicts risk of metastasis and risk of dying of prostate cancer when combined with other factors such as theGleason Scoreand length of time to biochemical recurrence. Helps identify patients more likely to develop clinically significant disease. Helps guide patient selection for salvage local therapy or androgen deprivation therapy. Helps guide utilization and timing of imaging studies. For patients with M0 castration resistant disease, PSADT helps guide patient selection for observation, second generation antiandrogen, androgen metabolism inhibitor, or other secondary hormone treatments. Used in assessment of eligibility for clinical trials.
