Overview
Brief Summary
The intention of this study is to investigate how many patients with prostate cancer, planned to be treated with LHRH analogues without history of surgery or radiotherapy, are suffering from LUTS. In addition the effect of LHRH analogues on the improvement of theses primary LUTS symptoms over time will be investigated.

This last visit has to be done 6 months before the baseline visit.
- •Patients having provided written informed consent
- •Patients mentally fit for completing a self-administered questionnaire
Exclusion Criteria

- •Patient with castrate levels of testosterone ( \< 50 ng/dL) at his first IPSS questionnaire
- •Patients who are also participating in any other clinical study within the last 2 months before study entry
- •Life expectancy of less than 12 months
Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
The percentage of patients suffering from prostate cancer with moderate to severe LUTS (International prostate symptom score (IPSS) >7) at baseline and having at least 3 points reduction of IPSS score at the end of study (48 weeks).
Time Frame: Week 48
The number of patients having Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms (LUTS) at baseline.
Time Frame: Baseline
Secondary Outcomes
- The correlation between IPSS score changes and total PSA changes after 48 weeks of treatment compared to baseline in patients with non-operable prostate cancer presenting moderate to severe LUTS (score IPSS >7).(Week 48)
- The correlation between IPSS score changes and total prostatic-specific antigen (PSA) changes after 24 weeks of treatment compared to baseline in patients with non-operable prostate cancer presenting moderate to severe LUTS (score IPSS >7) at baseline.(Week 24)
- Comparison of the percentage of patients presenting an IPSS ≥ 3 at week 48 to the percentage of patients presenting an IPSS ≥ 3 at baseline.(Week 48)
- The percentage of patients suffering from prostate cancer with moderate to severe LUTS (score IPSS > 7) at baseline and having at least 3 points reduction of IPSS score at week 24.(Week 24)
- Comparison of the percentage of patients presenting an IPSS ≥ 3 at week 24 to the percentage of patients presenting an IPSS ≥ 3 at baseline.(Week 24)
