abstract = {Prostate cancer (PC) and its treatment may affect PC
survivors differently with respect to age. However, little
is known regarding age-specific health-related quality of
life (HRQoL) in PC survivors 5 years or even ≥ 10 years
post-diagnosis.The sample included 1975 disease-free PC
survivors (5-16 years post-diagnosis) and 661 cancer-free
population controls, recruited from two German
population-based studies (CAESAR+, LinDe). HRQoL in both
populations was assessed using the EORTC QLQ-C30
questionnaire. Additionally, PC survivors completed the
PC-specific EORTC QLQ-PR25 questionnaire. Differences in
HRQoL between survivors and controls, as well as differences
according to age and time since diagnosis were analyzed with
multiple regression after adjustment for age, education,
stage, and time since diagnosis, where appropriate.In
general, PC survivors reported HRQoL and symptom-burden
levels comparable to the general population, except for
significantly poorer social functioning and higher burden
for diarrhea and constipation. In age-specific analyses, PC
survivors up to 69 years indicated poorer global health and
social functioning than population controls. Stratification
by time since diagnosis revealed little difference between
the subgroups. On PC-specific symptoms, burden was highest
for urinary bother and symptoms, and lowest for bowel
symptoms. Younger age was associated with less urinary
symptoms but higher urinary bother.Long-term disease-free PC
survivors reported overall good HRQoL, but experienced
persistent specific detriments. Our data suggest that these
detriments do not improve substantially with increasing time
since diagnosis. Targeted interventions are recommended to
prevent PC-related and treatment-related symptoms becoming
chronic and to enhance social functioning.},
