Background: Prostate cancer (PCa) patients receiving androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) are prone to suffer a series of potential side effects, including metabolic change, declining physical strength and worsening fatigue. Recent studies found that the change of lifestyle interventions can help to alleviate some adverse reactions, but the results were controversial. Therefore, the aim of this review was to comprehensively evaluate the effects of these lifestyle interventions on the side effects on PCa patients who received ADT. Methods: We searched several electronic databases, including ScienceDirect, PubMed, Cochrane library, CNKI and Wanfang database, without language restrictions. Among the literature, such lifestyle interventions as dietary advice, exercise and physical activities were carried out in the way of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) on PCa patients taking ADT. Pooled estimates were performed using fixed-effects or random-effects model. Results: Eleven RCTs involving 905 participants were included in this review. Compared with usual care group, exercise intervention could significantly improve the quality of life (QoL) of PCa patients undergoing ADT (P = 0.05, SMD = 0.17, 95% CI -0.00 to 0.34), but exercise plus dietary advice could not significantly improve the QoL (P = 0.15, SMD = 0.45, 95% CI -0.17 to 1.08). Moreover, lifestyle intervention could significantly change body composition (P = 0.03, SMD = -0.1, 95% CI -0.19 to -0.01). However, there showed no obvious difference in mitigating fatigue and depression (P = 0.46, SMD = 0.11, 95% CI -0.18 to 0.39; P = 0.31, SMD = -0.18, 95% CI -0.54 to 0.17). Conclusions: The results of this meta-analysis from present study indicated that exercise interventions can better improve the QoL and alleviate treatment-related side effects on prostate cancer patients taking ADT, and better therapeutic regimens for PCa patients are likely to emerge in the process.
