Study Type: Interventional
Official Title: Detection of Micrometastases in Lymph Nodes of Patients With Prostate Cancer
Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to set up a model for detecting micrometastases in Lymph nodes of patients with prostate cancer by quantitative polymerase chain reaction and its impact on progression-free survival.
Detailed Summary:
Sponsor: Technische Universität München
Current Primary Outcome: Biochemical recurrence free survival [ Time Frame: 2 years ]
Original Primary Outcome: Same as current
Current Secondary Outcome: Frequency of molecular detected lymph node micrometastases according to their topography [ Time Frame: 2 years ]
Description of the anatomic distribution of molecularbiologic lymph node micrometastases in prostate cancer patients treated with radical prostatectomy and extended lymphadenectomy.
The frequency of molecular detected lymph node micrometastases according to their anatomic distribution at the obturatoric fossa, external iliac, internal iliac and common iliac arteries´ region will be reported.
Original Secondary Outcome: Same as current
