171Background: The risk of prostate cancer (PCa)-death in men diagnosed with metastatic (M+) PCa is high. During the past decade, new life-prolonging therapies have been approved for the treatment of advanced PCa. Even though demonstrated in randomized clinical trials, the impact of these advancements on mortality of men with newly diagnosed M+ PCa has not been described in a nation-wide setting. Methods: In the Danish Prostate Cancer Registry (DaPCaR), all men diagnosed with M+ PCa in Denmark from 1995 to 2011 were identified. Patients were grouped according to the year of diagnosis; 1995-2000, 2001-2005 and 2006-2011. In a competing risk setting, the 5-year cumulative incidences of PCa, other-cause, and overall death were calculated. Multivariate cause-specific Cox analysis was performed. Results: A total of 1,892 (1995-2000), 2,329 (2001-2005), and 2,653 (2006-2011) men were included (total: 6,874). Patient characteristics at diagnosis showed essential differences as median age and median PSA decreased...
