North Carolina Prostate Cancer Comparative Effectiveness & Survivorship Study (NC ProCESS)
Completed
Conditions studied: Cancer of Prostate, Cancer of the Prostate, Prostate Cancer, Prostatic Cancer
In brief
NC ProCESS is a cohort of patients from diverse backgrounds diagnosed with early prostate cancer, who were enrolled from January 2011-June 2013. These patients were recruited throughout North Carolina, and also in partnership with institutions across the country. Patients enrolled before they start treatment, and are then followed prospectively through treatment and then afterwards. This observational study collects information on quality of life, cancer control, and health care received inclusive of treatment and management of subsequent effects including complications and recurrence. The objective of this study is to examine comparative outcomes among different modern prostate cancer treatment options in this cohort of patients.
