Impact of the USPSTF recommendations on prostate cancer stage migration and de-novo metastatic prostate cancer.

166Background: The US Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) recommended against prostate specific antigen (PSA) screening for men aged≥75 in 2008 and all men in 2012 in an effort to reduce overdiagnosis and overtreatment of men with prostate cancer (PCa). This recommendation may delay diagnosis of clinically significant PCa. Methods: The Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results Program (SEER) was used to identify men diagnosed with PCa between 2004-2015. PCa stage was categorized as localized (N0M0), nodal (N1M0) and metastatic (NxM1). Trend analysis was stratified on age group (PSA screening eligible was defined as age 55-69 according to the 2018 updated USPSTF recommendation). Multivariable logistic regression was used to identify predictors for nodal and metastatic disease. Results: Between 2004-2015, there were 603,323 men with PCa identified. Metastatic disease accounted for 2.8% of PCa in 2004-2008, 3.7% in 2009-2012, and 6.1% in 2013-2015. In men eligible for PCa screening, metastatic disease i...
