NCT01913717

Brief Summary

The present research project aims to improve the current treatment for prostate-confined tumor, evaluating the safety and feasibility of a very short hypofractionated radiotherapy schedule administered with one of the best available dose delivery systems. The study will include 2 sub-studies (in-silica and clinical study) and 4 tasks.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Acute toxicity

    The primary outcome is the acute toxicity according to the validated scale Radiotherapy Oncology Group / European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer (RTOG / EORTC). It will measure the proportion of patients who experience at least one event of acute toxicity of grade 3 or 4 according to the scale RTOG / EORTC) as the maximum value of toxicity during radiation treatment or within one month after the completion of radiotherapy.

    one month after radiotherapy

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • late toxicity

    2 years

  • efficacy of treatment

    2 years

Study Arms (1)

External beam radiotherapy

EXPERIMENTAL

External beam radiotherapy

Radiation: External beam radiotherapy

Interventions

The patients will be treated with extreme hypofractionated radiotherapy with the dose delivery system that will result most fit at the in-silica study. Simultaneous Integrated Boost (SIB) technique will be applied to deliver a total dose of 36.25 Gy in 5 fractions (over 10 days) to the whole prostate (7.25 Gy/fraction) and 37.5 Gy to the dominant intraprostatic lesion DIL (7.5 Gy/fraction), profiting of the high sensibility of prostate cancer to high dose/fraction. Several strategies will be applied in order to reduce the dose to the surrounding organs at risk.

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexmale
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • \- Histologically confirmed adenocarcinoma of prostate, including the following 2011 National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) risk categories: very low (T1c PSA \<10 ng/ml, Gleason score \<7, fewer than 3 positive biopsy cores, \<50% cancer in each core, PSA density \<0.15 ng/ml) or low (T1-T2a, PSA \<10 ng/ml, Gleason score \<7) or intermediate (T2b or T2c, PSA between 10 and 20 ng/ml, Gleason score of 7)
  • cN0 and cM0 stage
  • Age \> 18 years
  • Good performance status (ECOG\< 2),
  • No previous pelvic radiotherapy
  • No previous prostatectomy
  • No hormonal treatment (neoadjuvant or concomitant)
  • No concomitant bowel inflammatory disease or other serious comorbidities
  • Good urinary flow (peak flow \> 10 ml/s)
  • No previous invasive cancer (within 5 years before the prostate cancer diagnosis) apart from non-melanoma skin malignancies.

You may not qualify if:

  • Extraprostatic tumor extension (T3) or locally advanced disease (T4)
  • Pelvic lymph node metastasis (N1)
  • Distant metastasis (M1)
  • Urinary obstructive symptoms (IPSS \> 20)
  • Previous pelvic radiotherapy
  • Severe systemic disorders
  • Concomitant disorders including: chronic urinary or intestinal inflammatory conditions (for example, ulcerous recto-colitis, Crohn disease), anti-coagulant treatment (warfarin, heparin)
  • Previous malignancy except for skin non-melanoma cancer or 3-year disease free interval from previous malignancy like in situ cervix cancer or non muscle invasive bladder cancer
  • Non conformity of the radiotherapy dose distribution when compared to the dose constraints
  • Psychiatric disorders or any other condition that can can make unreliable the informed consent
