The clinical behavior of localized PCa is highly variable. Some cancers are aggressive leading to death, while others can even be monitored safely. Hence, there is a high clinical need for precise biomarkers for identification of aggressive disease in addition to established clinical parameters. OBJECTIVE: To develop an RNA expression-based score for the prediction of PCa prognosis that facilitates clinical decision making. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS: We assessed 233 tissue specimens of PCa patients with long-term follow-up data from fresh-frozen radical prostatectomies (RPs), from formalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded RP specimens and biopsies by transcriptome-wide next-generation sequencing and customized expression microarrays. OUTCOME MEASUREMENTS AND STATISTICAL ANALYSIS: We applied Cox proportional hazard models to the cohorts from different platforms and specimen types. Evidence from these models was combined by fixed-effect meta-analysis to identify genes predictive of the time to death of disease (DoD). Genes were combined by a weighted median approach into a prognostic score called ProstaTrend and transferred for the prediction of biochemical recurrence (BCR) after RP in an independent cohort of The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA). RESULTS AND LIMITATIONS: ProstaTrend comprising ∼1400 genes was significantly associated with DoD in the training cohort of PCa patients treated by RP (leave-one-out cross-validation, Cox regression: p=2e-09) and with BCR in the TCGA validation cohort (Cox regression: p=3e-06). The prognostic impact persisted after multivariable Cox regression analysis adjusting for Gleason grading group (GG) $\geq$3 and resection status (p=0.001; DoD, training cohort) and for GG$\geq$3, pathological stage $\geq$T3, and resection state (p=0.037; BCR, validation cohort). CONCLUSIONS: ProstaTrend is a transcriptome-based score that predicts DoD and BCR in cohorts of PCa patients treated with RP. PATIENT SUMMARY: ProstaTrend provides molecular patient risk stratification after radical prostatectomy.
