Background: ECHOS trial is a large real-world study which is collecting data on mCSPC patients treated in the daily clinical practice in Italy from 2015. To date, > 1500 pts were included in the study, most of them treated with DOC, according to the availability of the active agents over the time in Italy. In the present analysis, we assessed the outcomes of pts ≥75 yrs old who received DOC for mCSPC. Methods: We retrospectively and prospectively reviewed the clinical records of a consecutive series of mCSPC pts treated with DOC in the daily clinical practice in 69 Italian Hospitals. The treatment mostly consisted of DOC at the standard dose of 75 mg/sqm every 3 wks for six courses. For each pt we recorded the pre and post-DOC clinical history, the baseline characteristics of the pts, the treatment details and clinical outcomes. For the purpose of the present study, we considered only pts who ended chemotherapy by September 2022. Results: Among 920 mCSPC pts treated with DOC, 132 (14.4%) were ≥ 75 yrs old. Most of them (76%) presented de novo disease with high-volume features. Their baseline characteristics were similar to those of younger pts excepting for baseline hemoglobin levels which were significantly lower in older pts (median 12.6 vs 13.5; p = 0.001). Older pts received either a reduced dose (16.7%) or a modified schedule (8.4%) more frequently than younger one (p < 0.0001). Thirty-six pts experienced a grade 3-4 toxicity, which was mainly hematological (75% of the cases). The median progression-free survival (PFS) was 12.6 mos in older pts compared to 14.9 mos observed in younger ones (p 0.2). The median number of life prolonging agents administered after DOC progression was 1 in pts ≥75 yrs as well as in pts < 75 yrs. The median overall survival (OS) was 27.9 mos and 42.4 mos in older and younger pts, respectively (p < 0.0001). Conclusions: Our data suggest that DOC was efficacious and well-tolerated in mCSPC pts ≥75 yrs although the treatment was administered with either dose or schedule modifications in about 25% of the cases. No differences were observed in terms of PFS between pts ≥75 and ones < 75 yrs. Nevertheless, the median OS of older pts was significantly worse compared to that of younger ones.
