Hypofractionated Radiosurgery for Localised Prostate Cancer

Hypofractionated radiosurgery has been investigated in a few trials and appears to be safe and feasible.

Investigators initiated this multicenter phase II prospective trial to analyse feasibility (toxicity) of hypofractionated radiosurgery with 5 fractions in patients with localised prostate cancer, who are ineligible for the "PREFERE trial" under the hypothesis that the ratio of patients with late toxicity ≥ grade 2 after 1 year amounts 2,8% and is significant lower than 17.5%.

About this study

Experimental radiosurgery of prostate with 5 fractions each with 7,00 Gy (total application rate of 35,00 Gy).

Planned visits are: Baseline, visits at every radiation day and four follow ups (4-6 weeks, 3 months, 6 months and one year after last day of radiation).

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Treatment and study plan

Hypofractionated Radiosurgery

Radiation

Image-guided stereotactic Linac based RT preferable with "dedicated radiosurgery system" such as CyberKnife

Primary outcomes

  1. Late toxicity measured with Radiation Therapy Oncology Group-(RTOG)-Score

    Time frame: 12-15 months after radiotherapy

Secondary outcomes

  1. Acute toxicity analysed by Adverse Event (AE)- and Serious Adverse Event (SAE)-reports.

    Time frame: through study completion

  2. Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA)

    Time frame: At the time of inclusion and 1, 3, 6-9 and 12-15 months after radiotherapy

  3. International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS)

    Time frame: Screening and 3, 6-9 and 12-15 months after radiotherapy

  4. EORTC Quality of Life Questionnaire (QLQ) C30

    Time frame: At the time of inclusion and 12-15 months after radiotherapy
