Brief summary

This study is a two-arm, multicenter, randomized controlled clinical trial on whether single-port extraperitoneal VIP RARP is non-inferior to multi-port transperitoneal RARP in terms of functional recovery rate and other key metrics.

Detailed description

Multicenter enrollment of 480 patients with localized prostate cancer meeting enrollment criteria are randomized to undergo either single-port robotic extraperitoneal VIP radical prostatectomy or multi-port robotic transperitoneal bilateral intrafascial radical prostatectomy for perioperative data recording, treatment, and monitoring with 1 year follow up.

Interventions

PROCEDURESingle-port extraperitoneal robotic-assisted radical prostatectomy with Vattikuti Institute Prostatectomy(VIP) techniques

Patients with localized prostate cancer are randomized into this group in a 1:1 ratio and receive single-port extraperitoneal robotic-assisted radical prostatectomy with Vattikuti Institute Prostatectomy(VIP) techniques. The investigators will monitor patients for perioperative data recording, treatment and 1-year follow-up.

PROCEDUREMulti-port transperitoneal robotic-assisted radical prostatectomy with bilateral intrafascial nerve-sparing techniques

Patients with localized prostate cancer are randomized into this group in a 1:1 ratio and receive multi-port transperitoneal robotic-assisted radical prostatectomy with bilateral intrafascial nerve-sparing techniques. The investigators will monitor patients for perioperative data recording, treatment and 1-year follow-up.

Willing to cooperate and complete the study follow-up and related examinations; 9. The subject or his agent voluntarily participates in this trial and signs the written informed consent; 10. The questionnaire can be completed in Chinese. 11. The patient has been informed of the trial;

Exclusion criteria

1. High-risk and non-organ localized prostate cancer (clinical stage ≥ T2c, GS ≥ 8, PSA \> 20ng/ml); 2. Special type of prostate cancer, such as neuroendocrine etc.; 3. History of previous abdominal surgery and radiotherapy which may affect abdominal incision and Port placement; 4. Recent surgery of rectum, perianal abscess or around fistula and perineal area; 5.

Other conditions that the researchers believe may affect the experimental results or are unethical;

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Potency recovery rate3 months after surgeryPotency recovery rate 3 months postoperatively, based on the patient's description of whether the erection is firm enough for sexual activity or intercourse.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Continence recovery rateUp to 1 year, at a frequency of 1, 3, 6, and 12 months postoperativelyThe rate of recovery of continence postoperatively, measured in the number of pads used per day.
PSAUp to 1 year, at a frequency of 1, 3, 6, and 12 months postoperativelyPSA status postoperatively,measured in ng/mL
Potency recovery rateUp to 1 year, at a frequency of 1, 6, and 12 months postoperativelyPotency recovery rate will be assessed by patient's self-reported erectile firmness for sexual activity or intercourse, International Index of Erectile Dysfunction(IIEF-5) score(from 0-25 score, a higher score means a worse outcome), and phosphodiesterase5 (PDE-5)inhibitor intake frequency according to patients' despciption (a higher intake means a worse outcome).
Clavien-Dindo complication scoreEvery day during period of hospitalization (up to 7 days)Clavien-Dindo complication score measured in the following grades(a higher grade means a worse outcome) : First grade:complications that do not require medication, surgery or endoscopic treatment. Second grade: complications require to be treated with drugs, including blood transfusion and parenteral nutrition. Third grade: complications that require surgery, endoscopy, or radiation therapy. Fourth grade: the emergence of life-threatening complications, including cerebral hemorrhage, etc., which is also divided into 4a and 4b, 4a is single-organ dysfunction, 4b is mainly multi-organ dysfunction and injury. Fifth grade: death.
Operative timeDuring operation(on an average of 90-120minutes )Time elapsed from skin incision to placement of the final skin suture, measured in minutes
Estimated blood lossDuring operation(on an average of 90-120minutes )Estimated blood loss, measured in volume (mL)
Number of additional portsDuring operation(on an average of 90-120minutes )Number of additional ports needed in surgery
Period of hospitalizationDuring period of hospitalization (up to 7 days)Hospital stay, counted in days from the first day of hospitalization to discharge
Period of hospitalization post surgeryPost surgery, during period of hospitalization (up to 7 days)Hospital stay, counted in days from the time of transfer to the post anesthesia care unit (PACU) to discharge
