The study was launched in December 2015 in Tokyo, Japan, and the participating countries and regions engaged in preparations for the study during the course of 2016, including patient registration and creation of databases for the purpose of the study. The Second A-CaP Meeting was held on September 8, 2016 in Seoul, Korea, with the participation of members and collaborators from 12 countries and regions. Under the study, each participating country or region will begin registration of newly diagnosed prostate cancer patients and conduct prognostic investigations. From the data gathered, common research themes will be identified, such as comparisons among Asian countries of background factors in newly diagnosed prostate cancer patients. This is the first Asia-wide study of prostate cancer and has developed from single country research efforts in this field, including in Japan and Korea. At the Second Meeting, participating countries and regions discussed the status of preparations and discussed various issues that are being faced. These issues include technical challenges in creating databases, promoting participation in each country or region, clarifying issues relating to data input, addressing institutional issues such as institutional review board requirements, and the need for dedicated data managers. The meeting was positioned as an opportunity to share information and address outstanding issues prior to the initiation of the study. In addition to A-CaP-specific discussions, a series of special lectures was also delivered as a means of providing international perspectives on the latest developments in prostate cancer and the use of databases and registration studies around the world.

The study aims to clarify the clinical situation for PCa in Asia and use the outcomes for the purposes of international comparison. Following the first meeting in Tokyo in December 2015, the second A-CaP meeting was held in Seoul, Korea, in September 2016. This, the third A-CaP meeting, was held on October 14, 2017, in Chiang Mai, Thailand, with the participation of members and collaborators from 12 countries and regions. In the meeting, participating countries and regions presented the current status of data collection, and the A-CaP office presented a preliminary analysis of the registered cases received from each country and region. Participants discussed ongoing challenges relating to data input and collection, institutional, and legislative issues that may present barriers to data sharing, and the outlook for further patient registrations through to the end of the registration period in December 2018. In addition to A-CaP-specific discussions, a series of special lectures were also delivered on the situation for health insurance in the United States, the correlation between insurance coverage and PCa outcomes, and the outlook for robotic surgery in the Asia-Pacific region. Members also confirmed the principles of authorship in collaborative studies, with a view to publishing original articles based on A-CaP data in the future.

A Multicenter Cohort of Turkish Association of Uro-Oncology(GALENOS YAYINCILIK, 2015-01-01) Bolat, Deniz; Eskicorapci, Saadettin; Karabulut, Erdem; Baltaci, Sumer; Yildirim, Asif; Sozen, Sinan; Ates, Ferhat; Sekerci, Cagri Akin; Kurtulus, Fatih; Dirim, Ayhan; Muezzioglu, Talha; Can, Cavit; Bozlu, Murat; Gemalmaz, Hakan; Ekici, Sinan; Ozen, Haluk; Turkeri, LeventObjective To analyze the parameters that predict the surgical margin positivity after radical prostatectomy for localized prostate cancer. Materials and Methods In this multicenter study, the data of 1607 consecutive patients undergoing radical prostatectomy for localized prostate cancer in 12 different clinics in Turkey between 1993-2011 were assessed. Patients who had neoadjuvant treatment were excluded. We assessed the relationship between potential predictive factors and surgical margin status after radical prostatectomy such as age, cancer characteristics, history of transurethral prostate resection, surgical experience and nerve-sparing technique by using univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses and t test. Results The overall surgical margin positivity rate was 22.6\% (359 patients). In univariate analyses, preoperative prostate specific antigen level, clinical stage, biopsy Gleason score, percentage of tumor involvement per biopsy specimen, transurethral prostate resection history, surgical experience and nerve-sparing technique were significantly associated with positive surgical margin rate. In multivariate analyses, preoperative prostate specific antigen level (OR: 1.03, p=0.06), percentage of tumor involvement per biopsy specimen (OR: 7,14, p<0,001), surgical experience (OR: 2.35, p=0.011) and unilateral nerve-sparing technique (OR: 1.81, p=0.018) were independent predictive factors for surgical margin positivity. Conclusion Preoperative prostate specific antigen level, percentage of tumor involvement per biopsy specimen, surgical experience and nerve-sparing technique are the most important predictive factors of surgical margin positivity in patients undergoing radical prostatectomy for localized prostate cancer.Item Prostate volume effect on Gleason score upgrading in active surveillance appropriate patients(PAGEPRESS PUBL, 2019-01-01) Camur, Emre; Coskun, Alper; Kavukoglu, Ovunc; Can, Utku; Kara, Onder; Camur, Arzu Develi; Sarica, Kemal; Narter, Kamil FehmiIntroduction: Gleason Score (GS) upgrading rates in the literature are reported to be around 33-45\%. The relationship between prostate volume and GS upgrading should be defined, aiming to reduce upgrading rates in patients with low risk groups who are eligible for active surveillance (AS) or minimally invasive treatment, by varying biopsy cores, or lengths of cores according to prostate volumes. In this regard, the aim of our study was to establish the relationship between prostate volume and GS upgrading. Materials and methods: We retrospectively analyzed the medical records of 78 patients, who were appropriate for AS between 2011-2016 at our hospital. Inclusion criteria were patient age under 65 years, PSA level under 10 ng/ml, GS (3 + 3) or (3 + 4), and 3 or less positive cores, clinical stages <= T2. GS increase in radical prostatectomy specimen was considered as `upgrading' and in addition, score reported by biopsy as 3 + 4 but in surgical specimen as 4 + 3 were also considered as `upgrading'. The effect of prostate volume on Gleason grade upgrading was examined by calculating upgrading rates separately for patients with prostate volume 30 ml or less, those with 30 to 60 ml, and those over 60 ml. Results: As a result of the analysis of the data, upgrading was seen in 35 (44.8\%) of 78 patients included in the study. In the cohort mean prostate volume was 49.8 (+/- 26.3) ml. Twenty-two patients (28.2\%) had prostate volume 30 ml or less, 34 (43.6\%) 30 to 60 ml, and 22 (28.2\%) 60 ml or more. The patients were divided into two groups as those with and without GS upgrading. Between the groups prostate volume and prostate volume range (0-30/31-60/> 60) were not significantly different (p value > 0.05). Conclusions: Gleason grade upgrading causes patients to be classified in a lower risk group than they actually are, and may lead to inappropriate treatment. This condition has a direct effect on the decision of active surveillance. Therefore, it is important to define the factors that can predict GS upgrading in active surveillance appropriate patients. In this study, we found that prostate volume has no significant effect on upgrading in active surveillance appropriate patients.Item Genetic polymorphism in sex hormone metabolism and prostate cancer risk(FUNPEC-EDITORA, 2015-01-01) Ersekerci, E.; Sofikerim, M.; Taheri, S.; Demirtas, A.; Halis, F.We compared single-nucleotide polymorphisms for point mutations in cytochrome P450 genes, including cytochrome P450c17 alpha (CYP17), cytochrome P450 aromatase (CYP19), steroid-5-alpha-reductase (SRD5A2), and prostate-specific antigen (PSA) involved in androgen and estrogen production. Between January 2008 and January 2010, 90 patients were enrolled in the study. Of these patients, 28 were diagnosed with benign prostatic hyperplasia and 32 with prostate cancer, while 30 subjects were included as a control group. CYP19 1531 C>T, SRD5A2 gene V89L, CYP17 gene -34 T/C, PSA-158 (G/A) regions were evaluated for the association between polymorphisms and benign prostatic hyperplasia and prostate cancer in study population. Age, body mass index, peak urinary flow rate (Q max), voided urine volume, post-void residual urine volume, total PSA, free PSA, free/total PSA ratio, prostate weights measured by transrectal ultrasonography, erectile dysfunction score, and international prostate symptom score were compared between groups. No statistically significant difference in CYP19 1531 C>T, SRD5A2 V89L, and CYP17 -34T/C was observed in both groups when compared to the control group. The homozygote variant of PSA-158 (G/A) was significantly lower for prostate cancer. Age, total PSA, free PSA, free/total PSA ratio, prostate weight, and Q max were evaluated using multi-variant analysis. Only Q max was significant for the homozygote variant. The probability of being homozygous was 5.8-fold higher in subjects with Q max > 14 mL/s. In the Turkish population, the homozygote variant of PSA-158 (G/A) was significantly lower for prostate cancer.Item Focal Therapy for Prostate Cancer: Current Status of HIFU(GALENOS YAYINCILIK, 2015-01-01) Ozkan, Tayyar Alp; Eskicorapci, SaadettinFirst choice treatment options for Prostate Cancer (PCa) are Radical Prostatectomy (RP), brachytherapy and pelvic radiation therapy in current guidelines. The aim of this paper was to review effectiveness and oncological results of high intensity frequency ultrasound treatment (HIFU) in patients with localized PCa. HIFU technology is based on a principle of focused ultrasound (US) waves in an area-sized 3x3x11 mm with a convex ultrasound probe. HIFU ablation was first successfully used in 1995 for 29 pre-radical prostatectomy patients with unilateral tumors (T2-T2b). This treatment option mostly used in Europe in US it has not been approved yet by Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and is used only for clinical trials. HIFU is a relatively new treatment method and 10 years of mid-term results for survival were began to emerge. HIFU biopsy success rates are about 80\%. There need to be more accurate and improved results in order to define it as a new definitive treatment option for prostate cancer. Although it has low success rates, it can be used for all risk groups (low, medium, high), it can be used as a rescue treatment after unsuccessful HIFU treatment, radiotherapy and brachytherapy.Item Initial Outcomes and Assessment of the Transperineal Multiparametric-Magnetic Resonance Imaging/Ultrasonography Fusion Biopsy Method in Diagnosing Clinically-significant Prostate Cancer(GALENOS YAYINCILIK, 2017-01-01) Ozgen, Mahir B.; Ozveren, Bora; Uzel, Sertac; Altug, Ugur; Turkeri, LeventObjective: In this study, it was aimed to investigate the success of transperineal multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mp-MRI)/transrectal ultrasonography (USG) fusion prostate biopsy method in prostate cancer diagnosis and detection of clinically significant cancer. Materials and Methods: All patients signed written informed consent then patients with an indication for prostate cancer, therefore biopsy was planned for the last year underwent 3 Tesla mp-MRI retrospectively. All the lesions of patients with Prostate Imaging, Reporting and Data System (PIRADS) 3, 4 and 5 lesions were marked using MIM (TM) Symphony software by a single radiologist. All patients underwent transperineal MRI/USG fusion biopsy under general anesthesia. In the prostate MRI evaluation of the targeted lesions with a PIRADS score of 3-4-5 were sampled with 2 to 5 cores followed by random biopsies of both of the prostate lobes. Results: Prostate adenocarcinoma was diagnosed in 20 of 59 patients (33.8\%) having fusion biopsy. No difference was observed in prostate-specific antigen levels of patients whose biopsy results were benign and malignant. In 63\% of patients, only PIRADS 3 lesions were found, whereas PIRADS 4 and/or 5 lesions were reported in 22 (37\%) patients. The fusion biopsy of PIRADS 3 lesions revealed cancer in 7 patients (19\%), of which 6 had clinically-insignificant prostate cancer criteria. Adenocarcinoma was diagnosed in 59\% who had PIRADS 4 and/or 5 lesions. All these tumors had clinically-significant cancer characteristics. Lesion-targeted fusion biopsies missed 1 clinically-insignificant adenocarcinoma (1/7
