Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to compare the effects of ablative therapy (radiation or surgery) to all sites of disease combined with standard treatments on prostate cancer, compared to the standard or usual treatments used to treat this disease.

Study Arms (2)
Arm 1 (standard of care)
ACTIVE COMPARATORStandard systemic therapy \+ Ablative therapy to untreated prostate primary for patients with low volume metastatic disease burden
Arm 2 (standard systemic therapy + ablative therapy))
EXPERIMENTALLocal Ablative therapy to all sites of disease (including untreated prostate primary) \+ Standard systemic therapy
Interventions
Undergo stereotactic radiotherapy and/or surgery to all sites of disease (oligometastases and primary prostate if previously untreated).
Patients continue to receive their current planned systemic therapy at the discretion of the treating physician
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Histologic diagnosis/confirmation of prostate adenocarcinoma and no evidence of small cell cancer.
- Stage IV at presentation or relapse after curative intent therapy, classification per AJCC 8th edition: M1 disease with ≤ 5 metastases
- ≤ 3 metastases in any non-bone organ system
- Zoladex must commence within 12 weeks prior to randomization or within 12 weeks after randomization.
- Radiology (CT/MRI chest/abdomen/pelvis) within 42 days of randomization
- Bone scan within 42 days of randomization
- All tumours (Primary prostate and metastases) must be amenable to local ablative therapy (radiation and/or surgery).
- Age ≥ 18
- ECOG performance 0-2
- Patient is able (i.e. sufficiently fluent) and willing to complete the quality of life and economics questionnaires in either English or French
- Patient consent must be appropriately obtained in accordance with applicable local and regulatory requirements. Each patient must sign a consent form prior to enrollment in the trial to document their willingness to participate
- Patients must be medically suitable for study treatments as assessed by the appropriate specialties: medical, radiation, and surgical
- Patients with a prior or concurrent malignancy whose natural history or treatment does not have the potential to interfere with the safety or efficacy assessment of the investigational regimen
- Patients must be accessible for treatment and follow-up. Investigators must assure themselves the patients randomized on this trial will be available for complete documentation of the treatment, adverse events, and follow-up
- In accordance with CCTG policy, ablative therapy to metastases is to begin within 6 weeks after patient randomization
- +3 more criteria
You may not qualify if:
- Prior treatment with ADT in the neoadjuvant or adjuvant setting, unless treatment was discontinued ≥ 12 months prior to randomization AND total duration of treatment was ≤ 36 months (including expiry of last depot injection).
- Previously diagnosed recurrent/metastatic disease which has been already treated with any systemic therapy or radiotherapy with palliative intent.
- Castration resistant prostate cancer, defined as rising PSA (per PCWG3) or radiographic progression in the setting of castrate levels of serum testosterone (\< 1.7 nmol/L).
- Patients who present with de novo stage IV disease with pelvic lymphadenopathy as their only site of metastases (N1 M0), where the primary prostate has never been treated with curative intent prostate surgery or radiotherapy in the past.
- Inability to treat all sites of disease with local ablative therapy
- Patients with parenchymal brain metastases
