Actual (reported)The Trans Tasman Radiation Oncology Group (TROG) has been commissioned by the Department of Health and Ageing to undertake a project to assess new Radiation Oncology Technology and Treatments. This project is being undertaken in response to a recognised need for the Medicare Benefits Schedule to support appropriate new radiation oncology technologies and treatments as they become available, to ensure optimal patient care. The first phase of the project required TROG to develop a Generic Research Framework (the Framework) capable of collecting and generating information to substantiate the safety, clinical efficacy and cost effectiveness of new technologies and treatments. The second (and current) phase of the project requires that the Framework be piloted to assess the safety, clinical efficacy and cost effectiveness of Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy (IMRT) and Image Guided Radiation Therapy (IGRT) in four tumour site specific regions: A. Post Prostatectomy(IMRT) B. Anal Cancer (IMRT) C. Nasopharynx (IMRT) D. Intermediate Risk Prostate Cancer (IGRT) The aims of the site specific components of the ANROTAT protocol are as follows: Protocol A. Develop an approach for applying the Framework to evaluate the safety, clinical efficacy and cost-effectiveness of IMRT compared to 3DCRT in patients with prostate cancer (PP). Protocol B. Develop an approach for applying the Framework to evaluate the safety, clinical efficacy and cost-effectiveness of IMRT compared to 3DCRT in AC. Protocol C. Develop an approach for applying the Framework to evaluate the safety, clinical efficacy and cost-effectiveness of IMRT compared to 3DCRT in NPC. Protocol D. Develop an approach for applying the Framework to evaluate the safety, clinical efficacy and cost-effectiveness of IGRT compared to non-IGRT in patients with intermediate risk prostate cancer.

Actual (reported)Comparison of dosimetry between treatment plans prepared using IMRT/IGRT vs 3DCRT/Non IGRT as a surrogate for effectiveness and safety.
Measured By: 1. Tumour control estimated from surrogate physical dose endpoints with each of the new technologies as compared with standard therapy. 2. The likelihood of acute or long term damage to organ/tissue and resultant likelihood of impairment of function or QoL estimated from surrogate physical dose endpoints with each of the new technologies as compared with standard therapy.
6 Months
Obtain Data on the impact of disease and treatment on QoL
Measured by 1. QALYs gained, and cost-per-QALY gained 2. The likely cost increases or savings resulting from differences in acute or long term toxicity.
6 months
Compare the resource usage associated with the planning and delivery of the new technologies compared to the conventional standard approaches

Patients with prostate cancer \- A sample of 30 patients from at least 10 centres that are to be treated for intermediate risk prostate cancer will be enrolled. The sample will be selected to comprise at least 10 patients that will undergo non-IGRT, 10 that will undergo IGRT with fiducials and planar imaging, and 10 that will undergo IGRT with volumetric imaging.

1. The differences in time and resources required for preparation, planning, quality assurance (QA) checking and treatment for each of the new technologies as compared with standard therapy. 2. The likely cost increases or savings associated with differences in time and resources involved in the management of patients with each of the new technologies as compared with standard therapy.
