NCT04141709

Brief Summary

The purpose of this randomized trial is to investigate the efficacy and toxicity of percutaneous high-dose radiotherapy in patients with oligometastases of hormone refractory prostate cancer. The effectiveness will be tested in comparison to an observation group, in which no further therapy is initially given. Treatment can be stereotactically hypofractionated or conventionally fractionated.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Time to PSA progression

    Time to PSA progression (defined as PSA nadir after randomization +2ng/ml)

Secondary Outcomes (6)

    12 month after randomization

  • Number of patients without detection of new lesions

    12 month after randomization

  • Toxicity (CTCAE 5.0)

    3 and 12 month after therapy

  • Number of patients who have PSA response

    12 month after randomization

  • Time to tumor-specific systemic therapy after intervention

    12 month after randomization

  • +1 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (2)

local ablative radiotherapy

EXPERIMENTAL

The therapy is performed for all patients in the intervention arm using high-dose radiation therapy, either as conventional fractional irradiation with 2 Gy/fraction up to a total dose of 50 Gy or as hypofractional irradiation with a single dose of 10 Gy up to a total dose of 30 Gy.

Radiation: local ablative radiotherapy

Observational group

NO INTERVENTION

Effectiveness is measured as the rate in patients with PSA progression one year after randomization (defined as PSA nadir after randomization +2 ng/ml). There is a 2:1 randomization between intervention and observation group.

Interventions

Within the scope of the study, irradiation with two irradiation schemes is possible (the scheme applied is recorded in the CRF): * Scheme A 3\*10 Gy (once a day, 2-3 days a week) * Scheme B 25\*2 Gy (once a day, 5 days a week) The decision which irradiation scheme (3\*10 Gy or 25\*2 Gy) to use is made by the treating physician based on the anatomical position, the size of the metastases and the expected normal tissue load. Hypofractionated irradiation in three fractions is only possible if the limit values for the risk organs are adhered to. Radiotherapy should be performed with photons.

Eligibility Criteria

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

You may qualify if:

  • Patient with good general condition (WHO 0-1)
  • Histologically confirmed prostate carcinoma
  • After definitive local therapy, e.g. radical prostatectomy or definitive radiotherapy (also after neo-adjuvant hormone therapy, after postoperative radiotherapy).
  • PSA progression under ongoing androgen deprivation (defined as three consecutive increasing PSA values at intervals of \> 4 weeks and testosterone in the castration area \<50ng/dl or \<1.73nmol/)
  • Present complete staging (max. 6 weeks old), preferably by means of PET hybrid imaging with prostate-specific PET tracer
  • Imaging detection of individual active or progressive metastases (max. 5, depending on location) that are accessible to local ablative radiotherapy (histological confirmation of the metastases is not required)
  • No parallel participation to further clinical therapy trials up to 4 weeks before and after radiation therapy
  • Individual case discussion in an interdisciplinary tumor board
  • Patient's ability to consent and written consent

You may not qualify if:

  • Severe concomitant disease that limits further life expectancy to \< 5 years according to the physician's assessment.
  • PSA \> 20ng/ml, testosterone \>50 dl or \>1,73nmol/l
  • visceral metastasis (e.g. lung, liver, brain)
  • lack of compliance
  • previous taxane-containing chemotherapy
