Brief Summary
To clarify the role of short-term Androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) in the context of intermediate unfavorable and a subclass of high-risk patients treated with prostate Stereotactic radiotherapy (SRT). In intermediate unfavorable risk group, when choosing standard external beam radiotherapy, short term ADT is superior in terms of biochemical disease free survival (bDFS) to EBRT alone. In high risk disease, results of the combination therapy are even more clear. Prostate SRT has been endorsed as option for primary radical treatment for prostate cancer. In such patients, the benefit of ADT is still unknown and the decision is left to clinical judgement. For these reasons, it seems to be relevant to propose a randomized, open label, phase III clinical trial of prostate SBRT + 6 months ADT versus prostate SBRT alone in intermediate unfavorable and a subgroup of high risk prostate cancer patients.

Study Arms (2)
SRT+ADT
EXPERIMENTALPatients in ARM A will be treated with SRT on the prostate (consecutive days or at alternate days to a total dose of 36.25 Gy administered in 5 fraction (7.25 Gy/fraction) + LHRH analogue (Triptoreline 22.5 mg). An anti-androgen drug (es. Bicalutamide 50 mg) must be administered daily starting from 7 days before LHRH analogue administration to 10 days after to prevent the flare effect
SRT alone
NO INTERVENTIONPatients in ARM B will be treated with SRT on prostate alone at a total dose of 36.25 Gy administered daily or on alternate days in 5 fraction (7.25 Gy/fraction).
Interventions
1 dose each day, 7 days before LHRH until 10 days after LHRH administration
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Histological confirmation of prostate acinar adenocarcinoma with a minimum of 10 biopsy cores taken
- Prostate protocol MRI for local staging
- Patients belonging to intermediate unfavorable group according to the D'Amico/NCCN risk group classification:
- Grade group 3 or/and
- risk factors for intermediate category (PSA 10-20 ng/ml/ Grade group 2-3/ cT2b cT2c) or/and
- biopsy cores positive ≥50%
- Patients belonging to a subclass of high risk group according to the D'Amico/NCCN risk group classification:
- ISUP group 4 (GS 4+4, 3+5, 5+3) or
- cT3a stage or
- PSA\>20

- Previous prostate surgery other than TURP (at least 6 weeks prior to start of SBRT).
- Previous pelvic RT
- Prior androgen deprivation therapy (excluding 5alpha reductase inhibitors)
- Active severe inflammatory bowel disease
- Bilateral hip prothesis or any implant that could seriously interfere with dosimetric calculations
- Age \>80 years.
- cT4a, cT3b or pelvic lymph node involvement
- Controindication or hypersensitivity to the use of Triptoreline
- alpha reductase inhibitors not discontinued 4 weeks prior to randomization
- History of bone fractures and fall
- Risk factors for abnormal heart rhythms or QT prolongation.
- Use of concomitant medications that prolong the QT/QTc interval
