About this study

Official title: Hypoxia Assessment in Localized Prostate Cancer: A Companion Protocol to a Phase II Study of Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy (SBRT) for Low and Intermediate Risk Prostate Cancer

RATIONALE: Diagnostic procedures, such as MRI, may help measure oxygen levels in tumor cells. It may also help doctors predict a patient's response to treatment and help plan the best treatment.

PURPOSE: This clinical trial is studying how well MRI works in assessing hypoxia in patients with localized prostate cancer undergoing stereotactic body radiation therapy.

Read the detailed description

OBJECTIVES:

  • To characterize the status of global hypoxia within the prostate before stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) as assessed by blood-oxygen-level-dependent and tissue-oxygen-level-dependent MRI.
  • To characterize tumor vasculature and metabolism within the prostate before SBRT as assessed by dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI and magnetic resonance spectroscopic imaging, respectively.
  • Correlate prostate and normal tissue hypoxia before SBRT with clinical outcomes (toxicity and biochemical [PSA] control) after SBRT.

OUTLINE: Within 1-3 weeks before beginning stereotactic body radiotherapy, patients undergo T2-weighted anatomic MRI, magnetic resonance spectroscopic imaging, blood-oxygen-level-dependent and tissue-oxygen-level-dependent MRI, and dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Status of global hypoxia within the prostate as assessed by blood-oxygen-level-dependent and tissue-oxygen-level-dependent MRI

  2. Tumor vasculature and metabolism within the prostate as assessed by dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI and magnetic resonance spectroscopic imaging

  3. Correlation of prostate and normal tissue hypoxia before treatment with clinical outcomes after treatment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing blood-oxygen-level-dependent functional magnetic resonance imaging, dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging and magnetic resonance spectroscopic imaging in people with Prostate Cancer, run by University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 26 Nov 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Status of global hypoxia within the prostate as assessed by blood-oxygen-level-dependent and tissue-oxygen-level-dependent MRI. The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 26 Nov 2018.
