Randomized MRI-Guided Prostate Boosts Via Initial Lattice Stereotactic vs Daily Moderately Hypofractionated Radiotherapy

NCT02307058

Description:

The purpose of this research study is to learn about: 1) improving control of prostate cancer using an extra high dose radiation treatment to the MRI defined high risk tumor areas, in addition to the standard radiation treatment to the rest of the prostate; 2) preserving quality of life by reducing dose to the nearby organs at risk around the prostate; and 3) establishing the relationship of pre- and post-treatment MRI to MRI-directed biopsy results at 2-2.5 years after treatment.

                -  B. T1-T3 disease based on digital rectal exam.
      
                -  C. No evidence of metastasis by any clinical criteria or available radiographic tests
                   (N0M0 by clinical or imaging criteria).

                   hormone-releasing hormone (LHRH) agonist or antagonist injection) prior to enrollment.
                   An anti-androgen (e.g., bicalutamide at 50 mg per day po) is recommended to start
                   prior to LHRH agonist injection (not recommended for LHRH antagonist injection) and is
                   recommended to not be administered for more than 4 months. If ADT is planned, the
                   following restrictions apply:

      Measure:Rate of Prostate Tumor PathCR
      Time Frame:Up to 3 years
      Safety Issue:
      Description:Prostate Tumor Pathologic Complete Response (PathCR) will be measured using standard ultrasound guided systematic prostate biopsy.

      Secondary Outcome Measures

      Measure:Correlation between Pathologic Complete Response (PathCR) and Changes in serial post-RT MRIs
      Time Frame:3 months post-RT, 9-months post-RT, within 3 months of 2-2.5 post-treatment biopsy
      Safety Issue:
      Description:To establish the relationship between PathCR and changes in serial post-RT MRI's obtained at 3 months and 9 months after RT, and within 3 months prior to the primary endpoint post-treatment prostate biopsy at 2.0-2.5 yr after completion of all therapy.
      Measure:Number of participants experiencing treatment related adverse events
      Time Frame:Up to 2 years
      Safety Issue:
      Description:Number of participants experiencing acute and late toxicity will be evaluated by treating physicians
      Measure:Health-Related Quality of Life Scores: EPIC SF-12
      Time Frame:Up to 5.25 years (post-treatment)
      Safety Issue:
      Description:Health-related Quality of Life (HRQOL) will be measured using the Expanded Prostate Cancer Index Composite and Medical Outcomes Study SF-12 (EPIC SF-12) to evaluate patient function and satisfaction after prostate cancer treatment. Response options for each item form a Likert scale, and multi-item scale scores are transformed linearly to a 0-100 scale, with higher scores representing better HRQOL.
      Measure:Health-Related Quality of Life Scores: MAX-PC
      Time Frame:Up to 5.25 years (post-treatment)
      Safety Issue:
      Description:Health-related quality of life (HRQOL) will be measured using the scores on the Modified 18-item Memorial Anxiety Scale for Prostate Cancer (MAX-PC) from pre-treatment to post-treatment. The scale consists of 18 items (e.g. "I thought about prostate cancer even though I didn't mean to.") scored on a scale from 0 ("not at all") to 3 ("often"). Total scores range from 0 to 54, with higher scores indicating higher levels of anxiety.

      Time Frame:Up to 5.25 years (post-treatment)
      Safety Issue:
      Description:Health-related quality of life (HRQOL) will be measured using the International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) to evaluate patient urinary function and quality of life. There are 7 questions related to urinary function. Responses are on a scale from 0 ("not at all") to 5 ("almost always"), with higher scores indicating higher levels of urinary dysfunction. There is 1 quality of life question related to urinary symptoms. Responses are on a scale from 0 ("delighted") to 6 ("terrible").
      Measure:Change in gene/biomarker expression
      Time Frame:Baseline, Up to 5.25 years (post-treatment)
      Safety Issue:

      Description:Participant response will be reported as the percentage of participants with reported biochemical failure (defined as having an increase of 2 ng/mL PSA levels from nadir), clinical failure (defined as having evidence of distant metastasis and overall failure), cause specific mortality and overall mortality.
      Measure:Change in CTC Levels
      Time Frame:Baseline (pre-treatment), Up to 2 years (post-treatment)
