PRIMARY outcome
Timeframe: 12 to 60 months after participant enrollmentPopulation: The analysis population comprised participants from the North Carolina Prostate Cancer Comparative Effectiveness \& Survivorship Study who received primary treatment with either radiation therapy or surgery. Data were not collected from the National Cancer Data Base for this assessment.
Prostate cancer anxiety was measured annually (starting 12 months after participant enrollment) using the validated Memorial Anxiety Scale for Prostate Cancer (MAX-PC). The instrument contains 18 questions across 3 subscales assessing anxiety related to prostate cancer (11 items), PSA testing (3 items), and fear of recurrence (4 items). Each item was scored on a Likert-type scale (1 to 4), with a higher score indicating greater anxiety. The subscale means represent the average scores across the items in that sub-scale. The mean Total MAX-PC scores represent the average scores across the 3 subscales (anxiety related to prostate cancer; anxiety related to PSA testing; and anxiety related to prostate cancer recurrence).

SECONDARY outcome
Timeframe: Completion of primary treatment with surgery or radiation to earliest of prostate cancer recurrence, loss to follow-up, or end of study periodPopulation: Analysis population comprised patients in the National Cancer Data Base, stratified by risk group (low, intermediate, high) and treatment (radiation or surgery). Prostate cancer recurrence was assessed within each strata by PSA testing frequency. Recurrence data on patients in NC ProCESS were not collected for this assessment.
Time to recurrence represents the period between completion of the first course of treatment (i.e., radiation or surgery) and the date of prostate cancer recurrence (if prostate cancer recurrence occurred).

SECONDARY outcome
Timeframe: 12 to 60 months after participant enrollmentPopulation: The analysis population comprised participants from the North Carolina Prostate Cancer Comparative Effectiveness \& Survivorship Study who received primary treatment with either radiation therapy or surgery. Data were not collected from the National Cancer Data Base for this assessment.
Prostate cancer-specific health-related quality of life was assessed using the validated and well-published Prostate Cancer Symptom Indices (PCSI). PCSI assesses treatment-related morbidity and includes scales that measure sexual, bowel, and urinary symptoms. Patient responses are converted to a score from 0 (no symptoms) to 100 (maximum symptoms). A higher score indicates greater morbidity and poorer organ system function. PCSI was assessed at baseline, 3 months, 12 months and annually thereafter.

SECONDARY outcome
Timeframe: 12 to 60 months after participant enrollmentPopulation: The analysis population comprised participants from the North Carolina Prostate Cancer Comparative Effectiveness \& Survivorship Study who received primary treatment with either radiation therapy or surgery. Data were not collected from the National Cancer Data Base for this assessment.
Global health-related quality of life was assessed using the validated Short-Form 12 (SF-12). The SF-12 survey consists of Likert response formats and assesses overall health, mental health, vitality, social functioning, and whether one's daily physical activities are limited by their health or pain. The SF-12 also includes four binary response (yes or no) questions that assess limitations in function due to physical and emotional health. The SF-12 provides a Mental Component Score and a Physical Component Score, each calculated using norm-based scoring, with a mean score of 50 and standard deviation of 10. A lower score indicates lower health-related quality of life. SF-12 was assessed at baseline, 3 months, 12 months and annually thereafter.
