摘要

To assess shifts in long-term survival outcomes for prostate cancer patients, the present study conducted conditional survival (CS) analysis and developed a personalized CS-nomogram to provide dynamic prognostic predictions. Data from 301,441 prostate cancer patients in the Surveillance, epidemiology, and end results (SEER) database were analyzed, with cancer-specific survival (CSS) estimated using the Aalen Johansen estimator. Key predictive factors, including tumor size, lymph node involvement, distant metastasis, and histological grade, were identified via LASSO and multivariable Cox regression analyses to construct the nomogram. Results showed an increase in 12-year CSS from 94.3% at diagnosis to 99.4% for those surviving more than 5 years, with prostate cancer-specific mortality falling below 5% after 5–6 years of survival. The CS-nomogram demonstrated high predictive accuracy, achieving a concordance index (C-index) of 0.869 and area under the curve (AUC) values between 0.847 and 0.904 over a 12-year follow-up period, which provides dynamic, individualized prognostic estimates, supporting the long-term management of prostate cancer patients.
