 Harlan    CaPSURE   1989  2000   5365    Patients with biopsy-confirmed prostate adenocarcinoma, localized stage
 2003    (402 received WW)   (T3a or lower, N0 M0) who chose WW or active treatment within 9 mo of
 14532780   diagnosis. Patients who waited more than 9 mo after diagnosis before
     initiating active treatment and those who received active treatment before or
     within 6 mo after initiating WW were excluded from the analysis. Active
     treatment was defined as RP, EBRT, interstitial RT, cryotherapy, or ADT.
 67
 Cooperberg    CaPSURE   1989  2001   1990   Excluded patients with unknown PSA at diagnosis, diagnostic biopsy Gleason
 2004    score, and/or clinical T stage. Excluded patients with unknown primary
 15169800   treatment, and those receiving cryotherapy as primary therapy (this group
     accounted for 2% of patients since 1996; 68% of cryotherapy treated patients
     were treated at a single practice site in the early 1990s). Only low-risk
     prostate cancer patients were analyzed for the temporal trends of clinical
     characteristics or treatments received.
 68
 Cooperberg     CaPSURE   1990  2006   10,385   Excluded those diagnosed before 1990, those with metastatic or locally
 2007    advanced disease (clinical stage T3b or higher) and those with missing data
 17644125   on PSA, T stage or biopsy Gleason score. Localized biopsy-proven prostate
     adenocarcinoma. Information relevant to this review is only reported for “low-
     risk” prostate cancer, defined as PSA≤10 ng/ml, Gleason score≤6 and
     clinical stage T1/2a.
 90
 Cooperberg    CaPSURE   1990  2007   10,808   Localized prostate cancer, excluding metastatic or locally advanced
 2008   [3372 were   (≥T3bN0M0) disease, missing PSA, clinical T stage, or Gleason score data.
 18369637   considered high risk]   Results for trends over time were reported only among the high risk subset of
     patients. High risk was defined as stage T2c/T3a, PSA >20ng/mL, or Gleason
     score ≥8.
 69
 Cooperberg    CaPSURE   1990  2008   11,892   Biopsy-proven prostate cancer. Excluded advanced disease (stage higher
 2010    than T3a N0 M0); diagnosed before 1990; those from sites contributing <30
 20124165   pts; and those receiving treatments other than RP, EBRT, BT, cryoablation,
     WW/AS or ADT or with unknown primary treatment.
 70
 Shah    CaPSURE   1995  2004   6450   Unselected men with biopsy-proven prostate adenocarcinoma. Enrolled in
 2008    CaPSURE within 6 mo of diagnosis with complete clinical information (PSA,
 17997437   Gleason score and clinical stage) and complete followup information.
     Excluded patients with fewer than 6 biopsy cores or unavailable biopsy
     details.

 Greene    CaPSURE   1997  2003   3003   Patients with biopsy-proven prostate cancer; availability of pretreatment
 2005    demographics and QoL data.
