Study summary

The goal is to gain insight in the development and course of the toxicity after a curative treatment of prostate cancer

Read the detailed description

All with curative intent treated prostate cancer patients will be enrolled in the SFP (Standard Follow-up Programme). It also includes the post -operative adjuvant treatments and the patients with positive lymph nodes.

Patients will complete weekly questionnaires to score the patient -rated toxicity. Biweekly patients are seen by the treating radiation oncologist and / or AIOS in which the physician -rated toxicity is scored. In the follow-up will always patient -rated toxicity and physician -rated toxicity can be determined.

Use of an SFP should yield a profit for the practitioner , such as the automatic generation of letters. This should apply to all SFPs .

Quality of life and toxicity in patients will be completed on the touch-screen computers at FU visits.

Study population

All with curative intent treated prostate cancer patients who will be treated with RT will be enrolled in the SFP.

It also includes the post-surgical adjuvant treatment and patients with positive lymph nodes to research the development and toxicity after RT

The record gives a start of Apr 1999, a primary completion of Jan 2025 and a completion of Jan 2028. It does not say whether these dates are actual or estimated.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Oct 18, 2023, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
