Cost Efficacy Evaluation of Robot Assisted Radical Prostatectomy (ROBOTCAP)

June 2, 2017 updated by: Hospices Civils de Lyon

Medico-economic Evaluation of Robotic-assisted Radical Prostatectomy Versus Laparoscopic Radical Prostatectomy

In this observational cost efficacy study, the investigator compare the Laparoscopic Radical Prostatectomy (LRP) versus Robotic-Assisted Laparoscopic Prostatectomy (RALP). Every cost of care that include hospitalization related or post operative medical consumption are obtained and recorded up to 5 years follow up. Functional results (continence, potency, quality of life) are obtained through standardised questionnaires. Carcinologic results are estimated by Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) relapse and salvage treatments. Economic evaluation will be made to estimate direct costs of the four postoperative year along with the incremental cost-effectiveness ratio (ICER) per successful surgical treatment (preserved urinary continence and erectile function and PSA < 0.2).

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Erectile function
Time Frame: 12 months after surgery
Proportion of patients with recovery of erectile function between T0 (before surgery) and 12 months after surgery. Recovery is defined as a maximum decrease of 5 points score of the International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF) between pre and postoperative evaluations.
12 months after surgery

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Surgical margins
Time Frame: During surgery
During surgery
Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA)
Time Frame: Before surgery (T0), 6 months (M6), 12 months (M12), 24 months (M24) and 60 months (M60) after surgery
Before surgery (T0), 6 months (M6), 12 months (M12), 24 months (M24) and 60 months (M60) after surgery
Continence
Time Frame: Before surgery (T0), 6 months (M6), 9 months (M9),12 months (M12), 24 months (M24) and 60 months (M60) after surgery
Continence is assessed by the International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS)

Perioperative period, 6 months (M6), 12 months (M12) and 24 months (M24) afer surgery
Quality of life
Time Frame: Before surgery (T0), 6 months (M6), 9 months (M9),12 months (M12) and 24 months (M24) after surgery
Quality of life is assessed by EQ-5D, QLQ-C30 and QLQ-PR25 scores
Before surgery (T0), 6 months (M6), 9 months (M9),12 months (M12) and 24 months (M24) after surgery
Incremental cost-effectiveness ratio
Time Frame: 60 months afet surgery
Economic evaluation will be made to estimate direct costs of the five postoperative years along with the incremental cost-effectiveness ratio (ICER) per successful surgical treatment
60 months afet surgery
