Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy (SBRT) has emerged as a definitive therapy for localized prostate cancer (PCa). However, more data is needed to predict patient prognosis to help guide which patients will benefit most from treatment. The FACIT-Fatigue (FACIT-F) is a well validated, widely used survey for assessing fatigue. However, the role of fatigue in predicting PCa survival has yet to be studied. Herein, we investigate the role of FACIT-F as a baseline predictor for overall survival (OS) in patients undergoing SBRT for localized PCa. A retrospective review was conducted of 1358 patients who received SBRT monotherapy between January 2008 to April 2021 at an academic, tertiary referral center. FACIT-F scores (range 0 to 52) were summed for patients who answered all 13-items on the survey. FACIT-F total scores of ≥35 represented severe fatigue. Patients receiving androgen deprivation therapy were excluded. Differences in fatigue groups were evaluated using chi-squared tests. OS rates were determined using the Kaplan-Meier method and predictors of OS were evaluated using Cox proportional hazard method. Baseline full FACIT-F scores and survival data was available for 891 patients. 5-year OS was 87.6% and 95.2%, respectively, for the severely fatigued and non-fatigued groups. Chi-squared analysis of fatigue groups showed no significant difference in the following categories: D'Amico risk group, age, ethnicity, grade group, T-stage, or PSA density. Severe fatigue was associated with a significant decrease in OS (hazard ratio 2.76; 95%CI 1.55 - 4.89). The Cox proportional hazard model revealed that age and FACIT-F were both statistically significant (p <0.05). Baseline FACIT-F scores are significantly associated with OS. Higher FACIT-F scores, representing less fatigued patients, are associated with an overall survival benefit. These results indicate that the FACIT-F survey could serve as an additional metric for clinicians in determining prognostic factors for patients undergoing SBRT.
