PURPOSE: It is still unclear whether kidney transplantation can be safely performed in patients with prostate cancer after local therapy with curative intent.

METHODS: The protocol was registered in PROSPERO. We systematically searched Google, MEDLINE, the Cochrane Library, and the ICTRP for studies, official standards, clinical practice guidelines and organ transplant laws. Two review authors independently examined the full-text reports and identified relevant studies and one review author extracted the data. We assessed the overall certainty of the evidence for each outcome according to the GRADE approach.

RESULTS: We identified 1346 references through electronic database searching and finally included 6 references for official standards, clinical practice guidelines, and organ transplant laws, and 6 references for retrospective studies with very low certainty of evidence. We identified no prospective or ongoing studies and reported all results narratively.

CONCLUSION: We recommend that decisions on kidney transplantation in patients with prostate cancer after local therapy with curative intent should be made on a case-by-case basis. It is indispensable to consult with health care professionals or specialists at transplant centers to obtain individualized information regarding the waiting time requirements for renal transplantation in prostate cancer patients after local therapy with curative intent. No recommendation can be made regarding the waiting times after prostate cancer therapy with curative intent.
