Study summary

Stereotactic ablative Body Radiotherapy (SBRT) is an advanced radiation technique that allows for precise delivery of higher radiation doses in fewer treatment sessions, resulting in a shorter overall treatment duration. The available clinical evidence suggests that SBRT is highly effective in controlling localized prostate cancer (PCa) with acceptable side effects.

On the other side, dose escalation is a commonly employed strategy in radiotherapy for prostate cancer. Recent studies have confirmed a dose-response relationship, demonstrating improved biochemical control with focal dose escalation to the identified dominant intraprostatic lesion (DIL) on multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) of the prostate.

The hypothesis of this study is that the combination prostate SBRT with focal dose intensification on the DIL with preservation of the prostatic urethra, would lead to a higher probability of local control without a significant increase in toxicity compared to standard clinical practice.

This is a prospective single-arm phase II study designed to evaluate the effectiveness, safety and impact on quality of life of focal dose intensification using SBRT technology and extreme hypofractionated radiotherapy.

Study arms

  • Experimental
    SBRT with mpMRI guided focal boost

    SBRT 36.25 Gy in 5 sessions of 7.25 Gy to the entire prostate (including seminal vesicles) with a DIL simultaneous integrated focal boost (SIB) up to 50 Gy in 5 sessions, with partial protection of the prostatic urethra and bladder trigone.

    Radiation: Prostate SBRT (stereotactic body radiation therapy) with focal boost

Interventions

  • RadiationProstate SBRT (stereotactic body radiation therapy) with focal boost

    * Prostate SBRT delivered to a dose of 36.25 Gy in 5 fractions of 7.25 Gy to the entire prostate (including seminal vesicles) using VMAT * mpMRI defined DIL was simultaneously boosted up to 50 Gy in 5 sessions to the mpMRI identified DIL. * Additional urethra and bladder trigone sparing constrains * Daily IGRT with cone beam CT and intrafraction gold-seeds fiducial tracking

    Also known as: SABR with SIB, SBRT focal intensification

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Biochemical progression-free survival

    Biochemical progression as Phoenix definition (PSA nadir +2 ng/ml)

    Time frame: 3 years

  2. Local control

    Disappearance of suspicious image on mpMRI.

    Time frame: 12 months

Secondary outcomes

  1. Incidence and severity of acute urinary treatment-related adverse events graded according to CTCAE (Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events) v5.0 scale

    Every urinary event occurring within 3 months from treatment completion will be defined as "acute event". All adverse events will be recorded and graded according to CTCA V5.0 scale (graded from 0-5 with greater values representing worse outcomes)

    Time frame: 90 days

  2. Incidence and severity of acute rectal treatment-related adverse events graded according to CTCAE (Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events) v5.0 scale

    Every rectal event occurring within 3 months from treatment completion will be defined as "acute event". All adverse events will be recorded and graded according to CTCA V5.0 scale (graded from 0-5 with greater values representing worse outcomes)

    Time frame: 90 days

  3. Incidence and severity of late urinary treatment-related adverse events graded according to CTCAE (Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events) v5.0 scale

    Every urinary event occurring after 3 months from treatment completion will be defined as "late event". All adverse events will be recorded and graded according to CTCA V5.0 scale (graded from 0-5 with greater values representing worse outcomes)

    Time frame: 2 years

  4. Incidence and severity of late rectal treatment-related adverse events graded according to CTCAE (Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events) v5.0 scale

    Every rectal event occurring after 3 months from treatment completion will be defined as "late event". All adverse events will be recorded and graded according to CTCA V5.0 scale (graded from 0-5 with greater values representing worse outcomes)

    Time frame: 2 years

  5. Patient reported outcomes and quality of life assessment

    Impact on Quality of life affecting the genitourinary, gastrointestinal, sexual and hormonal domains using the EPIC-26 short form (International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) and Expanded Prostate Index Composite-26
