Comparative effectiveness of prostate cancer treatments for patient-centered outcomes: a systematic review and meta-analysis (PRISMA compliant).
This review analyzed the comparative effectiveness of prostate cancer (PCa) treatments through systematic review and meta-analysis with a focus on outcomes that matter most to newly diagnosed localized PCa patients. The studies provided moderate data for the patient-centered outcome of mortality. Radical prostatectomy demonstrated mortality benefit compared to watchful waiting and radiation therapy.
