605 Background: Patients with stage I testicular cancer (TCa) have excellent survival, and surveillance after orchiectomy is often preferred. Limited data exist on survivorship outcomes of surveillance versus adjuvant therapy. We compared systemic health outcomes between patients managed with surveillance and those treated with upfront therapy. Methods: Claims data from the OptumLabs Data Warehouse (2007–2022) identified stage I TCa patients managed with surveillance, chemotherapy, or radiation. Adjuvant therapy was defined as chemotherapy or radiation within 4 months of diagnosis with no further therapy. Chemotherapy codes were required within 42 days to ensure multiple cycles were not given. Propensity score–matched cohorts were created using logistic regression. A 3-year analysis evaluated new diagnoses of cardiopulmonary complications, metabolic syndrome, men’s health, psychological, and miscellaneous systemic conditions. Outcomes were stratified by treatment group. Chi-square tests and Cox regression analyses compared survivorship outcomes between adjuvant therapy and surveillance. Results: Eight-hundred forty-two patients had 3 years of coverage: 531 surveillance, 159 chemotherapy, and 152 radiation. No significant differences were found in cardiopulmonary, metabolic, psychological, or other systemic outcomes between therapy and surveillance (Table 1). Men’s health diagnoses were more frequent with chemotherapy (35.2% vs 23.9%, p=0.027) compared to surveillance. However, Cox regression showed no significant time-to-event differences on time-to-event analysis between groups. Conclusions: Adjuvant chemotherapy may be associated with higher rates of men’s health complications (infertility, erectile dysfunction, hypogonadism), but over time the risk is not significantly different than surveillance. Propensity-score matched survivorship outcomes: A) surveillance vs chemotherapy; B) surveillance vs radiation.
