Description of intervention(s) / exposure
This is an observational study investigating the effect of Triptorelin Embonate (Diphereline (TM) 11.25mg) on lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) in Australian prostate cancer patients. The study participation duration for each patient will be 48 weeks. Each subject will receive 4 intramuscular injections of the Triptorelin Embonate (Diphereline (TM) 11.25mg) every 12 weeks at baseline, weeks 12, 24 and 36.
This study is collecting data about the subject’s normal treatment with Triptorelin Embonate (Diphereline (TM)) looking at the effect of this drug on lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) in Australian prostate cancer patients. The subject will continue to be treated for prostate cancer according to the best medical practice in Australia. The subject's medical care will not change in anyway as a result of the study and no additional tests or examinations are needed. The only difference will be that subject’s medical details will be recorded not only as it is routinely done in their clinic notes, but also anonymously in an electronic database.

Summary
Brief summary
This study will collect information from routine clinical care with the intention of evaluating the effect of Diphereline on the symptoms that are present in many men with prostate cancer, such as difficulty in postponing urination, how often they have a weak urinary stream and/or the need to push or strain to begin urination. These symptoms are referred to as lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS).
