Purpose To provide overview of Prostate Cancer To highlight the importance of Informed Decision Making
Slide 3-

What is Prostate Cancer? Prostate cancer starts from the prostate gland which is: Found below the bladder and in front of the rectum The size of a walnut or golf ball Makes the fluid that is part of semen National Cancer Institute
Slide 4-

How many men get prostate cancer and die from it? USA (in 2011-estimate)* 240,890 new cases of prostate cancer will be diagnosed 37,660 men will die from prostate cancer Maryland (in 2011--estimate)* 5,060 men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer 710 will die from it * American Cancer Society's Cancer Facts and Figures 2011
Slide 5-

Risk factors for prostate cancer Age is the strongest risk factor 63% of prostate cancer occurs in men over the age of 65. Maryland rates from Maryland Cancer Registry, 2002-2006 U.S. (SEER 17) rates from NCI SEER*Stat
Slide 6-

Risk factors for prostate cancer Age is the strongest risk factor 63% of prostate cancer occurs in men over the age of 65. Race More common in African American men than other men (the reasons are unknown) ACS and NCI

Slide 9-

Risk factors for prostate cancer (continued) Family history Genes Account for about 5-10% of prostate cancer Other areas that need more research include: Diet, obesity, exercise, and sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) ACS and NCI
Slide 10-

What is the lifetime risk of prostate cancer? African American man 19% chance (1 in 5) of being diagnosed with prostate cancer 5% chance (1 in 20) of dying from prostate cancer General population 16% chance (1 in 6) of being diagnosed with prostate cancer 3% chance (1 in 33) of dying from prostate cancer CDC
Slide 11-

Symptoms of prostate cancer Prostate cancer may not produce symptoms in its early stages. A man can look healthy, feel fine, and not know he may have a problem. If signs and symptoms are present, they may include: blood in the urine; the need to urinate frequently, especially at night; weak or interrupted urine flow; pain or a burning feeling while urinating; inability to urinate; and regular pain in the lower back, pelvis, or upper thighs. CDC, ACS, NCI
Slide 12-

Ways to find prostate cancer PSA (prostate-specific antigen) PSA is a protein produced by cells of the prostate gland. PSA test measures the level of PSA in the blood. DRE (digital rectal exam) Doctor feels the surface of the prostate gland for bumps, hard spots, and any other abnormalities Digital Rectal Exam

Slide 14-

What can increase the PSA level? Prostate cancer BPH (benign prostatic hyperplasia) Enlargement of the prostate gland (not cancer) Age PSA level tends to go up with age ACS, NCI
Slide 15-

What can increase the PSA level (continued)? Prostatitis Infection/inflammation of the prostate gland Ejaculation Increases PSA levels for a short time Men are asked to abstain from ejaculation for 2 days before testing Clearly, factors other than prostate cancer can increase PSA level. ACS, NCI
Slide 16-

In May 2012, The United States Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) recommended against PSA-based screening for prostate cancer. USPSTF decided that the expected harms outweigh the possible benefits There are no exceptions to the recommendation due to race or age Screening for Prostate Cancer?
Slide 17-

Possible Benefit of Prostate Cancer Screening 1 man in 1,000—at most—avoids death from prostate cancer because of screening for prostate cancer over 10 years (based on current information) DHMH – Prostate Cancer Minimal Elements, 2012
Slide 18-

Expected Harms of Prostate Cancer Screening For every 1,000 men who are screened with the PSA test: 30 to 40 men will develop erectile dysfunction or urinary incontinence due to treatment 2 men will experience a serious cardiovascular event, such as a heart attack due to treatment 1 man will develop a serious blood clot in his leg or lungs due to treatment For every 3,000 men who are screened with the PSA test: 1 man will die due to complications from surgical treatment DHMH – Prostate Cancer Minimal Elements, 2012
Slide 19-

Can prostate cancer be prevented? It is not known yet how to prevent prostate cancer. However, the key behaviors in cancer prevention, such as: not-smoking, healthy diet, physical activity, and healthy weight help to lower the risk of many types of cancer, while also reducing the risk of heart disease, diabetes, and stroke.

Section of Slides for Outreach Staff and Health Educators
Slide 24-

At the end of this training (basic slides and additional slides for local staff, staff will understand the: Basic anatomy of the prostate gland Burden of prostate cancer Risk factors for prostate cancer Race and prostate cancer Symptoms of prostate cancer Conditions that can increase a man’s Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) level Screening for prostate cancer is currently not recommended (USPSTF) Possible benefit and expected harms of PSA screening General healthy behaviors in cancer prevention Recommended public health message for prostate cancer education and the role of informed decision making Learning Objectives
Slide 25-

The role of education and outreach Encourage men to speak with their doctors to learn more about: their personal risks for prostate cancer, options for screening, and the pros and cons of prostate cancer detection and treatment.
Slide 26-

The role of education and outreach Educate men about prostate cancer including: Risk factors for prostate cancer Symptoms for prostate cancer Screening tests Conditions other than prostate cancer that can elevate the PSA Provide men accurate information about prostate cancer screening using publications from credible sources (e.g., ACS, NCI, DHMH)
Slide 27-

The role of education and outreach Inform men that the decision to get prostate cancer screening is between them and their doctor Encourage men to speak with their doctors to make an informed decision, and to get tested if they decide to.
Slide 28-

The role of education and outreach Inform men that if prostate cancer is diagnosed: Get all the information. The decision about the type of prostate cancer treatment is between the man and his doctor(s) Surgery, radiation therapy, and “active surveillance” are possibilities. Active surveillance is where the man has further testing over time before deciding whether more invasive treatment is needed.
