What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Proportion of subjects treated continuously with triptorelin for the 12 months

    The proportion of subjects treated continuously with triptorelin for the 12 months following treatment initiation, with any formulation and any route of administration. The treatment status (i.e. patient continuously treated / patient not continuously treated) will be assessed according to the investigator's judgment.

    Measured: 12 months

Secondary outcomes (8)
  1. Planned total duration of triptorelin treatment

    Measured: Baseline, 6 months, 12 months

  2. Primary reasons of choice of planned total triptorelin treatment duration

    Description of the primary reason of choice of planned total triptorelin treatment duration declared by the investigator, at V1; and at V2 and V3 if the planned total duration is modified.

    Measured: baseline, 6 month, 12 months

  3. Parameters that influence the planned total duration of triptorelin treatment

    Identification of parameters that influence the planned total duration of triptorelin treatment including but not limited to the following parameters: Circumstance of prescription, Prostate Cancer (PCa) aggressiveness criteria, Prior PCa treatments, Concomitant PCa treatments, Subject's characteristics: age, weight, Karnofsky score, specific comorbidities and concomitant treatments, genetic predisposition.

    Measured: Baseline

  4. Parameters that influence the modification of the planned total duration of triptorelin treatment

    Identification of parameters that influence the modification (if any) of the planned total duration of triptorelin treatment including but not limited to the following parameters: PCa aggressiveness criteria at 12 months (PSA, concomitant treatments for prostate cancer, symptoms, metastases assessment), Subject's characteristics: age, weight, Karnofsky score, specific comorbidities and concomitant treatments, genetic predisposition at baseline, follow up assessments, care pathway.

    Measured: 12 months

  5. Formulation and administration route of triptorelin prescribed

    Formulation and administration route of triptorelin prescribed (monthly intramuscular, 3-monthly subcutaneous, 3-monthly intramuscular, 6-monthly intramuscular).

    Measured: baseline, 6 and 12 months

  6. Description of the reasons of choice of formulation and administration route of triptorelin prescribed

    monthly intramuscular, 3-monthly subcutaneous, 3-monthly intramuscular, 6-monthly intramuscular) at V1, according to the investigator.

    Measured: baseline

  7. Parameters that influence the choice of formulation and administration route of triptorelin prescribed

    Identification of parameters that influence the choice of formulation and administration route of triptorelin prescribed (monthly intramuscular, 3-monthly subcutaneous, 3-monthly intramuscular, 6-monthly intramuscular) at V1 including but not limited to the following parameters: Disease with symptoms, total planned duration of treatment, highly evolutive disease, heavy PCa concomitant treatment, physical frailty of subjects, psychological context of subjects, potential impact on compliance, subject afraid of injection, anticoagulant treatment, BMI, Preferred investigator formulation/route

    Measured: baseline

  8. Description and change at each follow-up visit from baseline

    Description and change at each follow-up visit (V2, V3) from baseline (V1) in each of the 6 sub-scales of the QLQ-PR25 questionnaire (urinary symptoms, incontinence aid, bowel symptoms; treatment related symptoms, sexual activity, sexual functioning). QLQ-PR25 score is distributed from 1 (not at all) to 4 (very much).

    Measured: baseline, 6 months, 12 months
