Brief Summary:
Men with localized prostate cancer are analyzed. Purpose: This randomized study compares outcomes between robotic-assisted radical prostatectomy and laparoscopic radical prostatectomy

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Prostate Cancer Procedure: Prostatectomy Not Applicable

Detailed Description:
In recent years robotic-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy has assumed significant importance in the surgical management of localised prostate cancer. However there is no high quality evidence proving the superiority of the robotic approach over conventional laparoscopic prostatectomy. The study aims to evaluate functional and oncological outcomes between the two approaches. In terms of clinical values, oncologic and continence outcomes, erectile function as well as quality of life - patient satisfaction and psychosocial orientation will be investigated.

Outcome Measures
Go to 
Top of Page Study Description Study Design Arms and Interventions Outcome Measures Eligibility Criteria Contacts and Locations More Information

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Continence restoration at month 3 [ Time Frame: after 3 months ]
    Subjective report of urinary continence at month 3; R-LRPE vs. LRPE


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Outcome of continence - Report of continence using the incontinence-specific quality of life outcome questionnaire ICIQ-SF (International Consultation on Incontinence Questionnaire - Short Form) [ Time Frame: 1, 3, 6, 12 months postoperative ]
    The ICIQ-SF is a subjective measure of severity of urinary loss and quality of life for those with urinary incontinence. The ICIQ is a self-reported survey and screening tool for incontinence. Four main items (of 6 total) ask for rating of symptoms in the past 4 weeks. The sum score of items 3, 4, 5 (items 1 and 2 are demographic) for the actual score is taken. The final item is a self diagnostic item that is unscored. Score is 0 - 21 with a higher score indicating greater severity. Cut-Off Scores: Slight = 1 - 5, Moderate = 6 - 12, Severe = 13 - 18, Very severe = 19 - 21.

  2. Outcome of continence - number of incontinent episodes [ Time Frame: 1, 3, 6, 12 months postoperative ]
    Report of the number of incontinent episodes [PAD-use/day]

  3. Outcome of erectile function - IIEF-5 [ Time Frame: 1, 3, 6, 12 months postoperative ]
    Erectile function including information by the International Index of Erectile Function [IIEF-5]. The IIEF-5 score is the sum of the ordinal responses to the 5 items. 22-25: No erectile dysfunction, 17-21: Mild erectile dysfunction, 12-16: Mild to moderate erectile dysfunction, 8-11: Moderate erectile dysfunction, 5-7: Severe erectile dysfunction

  4. Outcome of quality of life - EORTC-QLQ-C30 Questionnaire [ Time Frame: 1, 3, 6, 12 months postoperative ]
    The EORTC quality of life questionnaire (QLQ) is an integrated system for assessing the healthrelated quality of life (QoL) of cancer patients participating in international clinical trials. The EORTC QLQ-C30 Summary Score is calculated from the mean of 13 of the 15 QLQ-C30 scales (the Global Quality of Life scale and the Financial Impact scale are not included). Prior to calculating the mean, the symptom scales need to be reversed to obtain a uniform direction of all scales. The summary score should only be calculated if all of the required 13 scale scores are available (using scale scores based on the completed items, provided that at least 50% of the items in that scale have been.

  5. Outcome of quality of life - EORTC-QLQ-PR25 Questionnaire [ Time Frame: 1, 3, 6, 12 months postoperative ]
    The European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire PR25 contains 25 items and is meant for use among patients with prostate cancer varying in disease stage and treatment modality (i.e. surgery, chemotherapy, radiotherapy, etc.). It includes subscales assessing urinary symptoms (9 items), bowel symptoms (4 items), treatment-related symptoms (6 items), and sexual functioning (6 items). Each subscale ranges from 1 (not at all) to 4 (very much). The QLQ-PR25 should always be complemented by the QLQ-C30.

  6. Outcome of quality of life - HADS-D Questionnaire [ Time Frame: 1, 3, 6, 12 months postoperative ]
    The Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale is meant to assess anxiety and depression in patients with physical illness. It contains 14 items with subscales ranging from 1 to 4. If a higher value indicates a better or worse outcome varies with each respective item.

  7. Outcome of quality of life - Patient satisfaction [ Time Frame: 1, 3, 6, 12 months postoperative ]
    Patient satisfaction is measured on a 5-point scale ranging from highly dissatisfied to highly satisfied. Additionally, patients are asked if they would in hindsight make a decision for or against the surgery and if they would advise a friend to undergo surgery under the same circumstances.

  8. PSA value [ Time Frame: 1, 3, 6, 12, 24, 36 months postoperative ]
    Measurement of prostate-specific antigen.
