dc.description.abstractPurpose Focal therapy (FT) for localized prostate cancer (PCa) is only recommended within the context of clinical trials by international guidelines. We aimed to investigate oncological follow-up and safety data of focal high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) treatment. Methods We conducted a single-center prospective study of 29 patients with PCa treated with (focal) HIFU between 2016 and 2021. Inclusion criteria were unilateral PCa detected by mpMRI-US-fusion prostate biopsy and maximum prostate specific antigen (PSA) of 15 ng/ml. Follow-up included mpMRI-US fusion-re-biopsies 12 and 24 months after HIFU. No re-treatment of HIFU was allowed. The primary endpoint was failure-free survival (FFS), defined as freedom from intervention due to cancer progression. Results Median follow-up of all patients was 23 months, median age was 67 years and median preoperative PSA was 6.8 ng/ml. One year after HIFU treatment PCa was still detected in 13/ 29 patients histologically (44.8%). Two years after HIFU another 7/29 patients (24.1%) were diagnosed with PCa. Until now, PCa recurrence was detected in 11/29 patients (37.93%) which represents an FFS rate of 62%.One patient developed local metastatic disease 2 years after focal HIFU. Adverse events (AE) were low with 70% of patients remaining with sufficient erectile function for intercourse and 97% reporting full maintenance of urinary continence. Conclusion HIFU treatment in carefully selected patients is feasible. However, HIFU was oncologically not as safe as expected because of progression rates of 37.93% and risk of progression towards metastatic disease. Thus, we stopped usage of HIFU in our department.en_GB
