Objective: To retrospectively investigate the treatment outcomes of external beam radiotherapy with androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) in high-risk prostate cancer in three radiotherapy dose groups. Methods: Between 1998 and 2013, patients with high-risk prostate cancer underwent three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy or intensity-modulated radiotherapy of 66 Gy, 72 Gy, or 78 Gy with ADT. Prostate-specific antigen (PSA) relapse was defined using the Phoenix definition. PSA relapse-free survival (PRFS) was evaluated in each radiotherapy dose group. Moreover, high-risk patients were divided into H-1 (patients with multiple high-risk factors) and H-2 (patients with a single high-risk factor) as risk subgroups. Results: Two hundred and eighty-nine patients with a median follow-up period of 77.3 months were analyzed in this study. The median duration of ADT was 10.1 months. Age, Gleason score, T stage, and radiotherapy dose influenced PRFS with statistical significance both in univariate and multivariate analyses. The 4-year PRFS rates in Group-66 Gy, Group-72 Gy and Group-78 Gy were 72.7%, 81.6% and 90.3%, respectively. PRFS rates in the H-1 subgroup differed with statistical significance with an increasing radiotherapy dose having a more favorable PRFS, while PRFS rates in H-2 subgroup did not differ with increase in radiotherapy dose. Conclusion: Dose escalation for high-risk prostate cancer in combination with ADT improved PRFS. PRFS for patients in the H-1 subgroup was poor, but dose escalation in those patients was beneficial, while dose escalation in the H-2 subgroup was not proven to be effective for improving PRFS.
