• Preben & Anna Simonsen Fonden
• The Lundbeck Foundation
Total: 11 million DKK ~ 1,7 million USD

Agenda
• Prostate cancer treatment and side-effects
• Why introduce football in side-effect management?
• The FC Prostate RCT: Design and results
• The next step: A community based trial (ongoing)
• Most common cancer in Danish men (~ 24 %)
• 4400 new cases each year in Denmark
(~750,000 in the developed world)
• Mortality ~1200/year in Denmark
(~150,000 in the developed world)
• ~ 50 % of men diagnosed with prostate cancer undergo
androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) -> No testosterone

EXERCISE AND PROSTATE CANCER
� Exercise may counteract side effects and improve quality of life in PC patients.
� Moderate physical activity may have a positive effect
on disease progression and survival.
� Less than half of PC patients are meeting the official guidelines regarding physical activity.

Benefits of football in healthy men� Football training improves physical fitness and body composition
� Football training provides peer-based psychosocial support and social capital

The FC Prostate RCT
Design Randomized Controlled Trial
Population 57 men undergoing ADT for Prostate Cancer
Age 66.8 (± 6) years
Intervention (N=29) 32 weeks football training 2-3 times per week
Control (N=28) No intervention
Primary outcome Lean Body Mass after 12 weeks
Secondary
outcomes

Bone mineral density, Physical capacity, Bone
turnover markers
Primary study outcome
Group difference in mean change score = 0.7 kg, P = 0.02

Injuries related to football training
• Fibula fractures (n = 2)
• Muscle- or tendon injuries (n =3)
• All injuries managed conservatively
• 3 out of 5 injuried participants started playing after recovery
• 1 participant withdrew from the study
• 1 participant was excluded due to a neuropathic disease
In conclusion, what we found
was that…
… Compared to control, football
training improved lean body mass,
muscle strength, bone mass and
functional performance in men
undergoing ADT for prostate
cancer…
…Larger studies are needed to verify these results and examine safety

Ongoing study: FC PROSTATE COMMUNITY
• Population:
• Men with prostate cancer (all stages, n=214)
• Intervention:
• Football training in 5 local football clubs across Denmark
• Primary outcome:
• Quality of Life
• Secondary outcomes:
• Lean body mass, fat mass, bone density, safety
