Study Summary

Prostate cancer patients have a number of excellent treatment options to consider, and quality of life following treatment is often a consideration in treatment choice. One critical quality of life concern for patients diagnosed with prostate cancer is sexual function. Previous studies point to a vascular mechanism of impotence post-radiation therapy, as opposed to a nerve-based mechanism following surgery. In this study, the critical vascular structures (internal pudendal artery and corpus cavernosum) are defined by MRI-based imaging and included in treatment planning for radiation treatments, hopefully preserving critical artery function. This study will collect erectile function preservation rates at 5-years post-vessel-sparing radiotherapy with or without aids using the patient reported using the simplified three-question erectile function scale.

Primary Outcome

The primary endpoint of the study was to accurately determine the preservation of erectile function post radiation therapy. Erectile preservation was defined as a score of 1 or 2 on the three-tier patient reported questionnaire equating to being able to be sexually active with or without aids. Scoring: 1. Sexually active without aids 2. Sexually active with aids 3. Not sexually active with or without aids
