What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • curietherapy and radiotherapyRadiation

    boost of curietherapy(40 Gy)and external radiotherapy (34 Gy)

What is being measured

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

  1. Proportion of patients with a delivered dose by a boost of curietherapy is at least 40 Gy (D95) associated to a dose of 34 Gy for extern radiotherapy

    Measured: at 5 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Acute toxicities at month 3 after end of treatment: late toxicities, survival without biological relapse, without local relapse or metastatic evolution, feasibility of MRI use in prostatic CTV

    Measured: at 5 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing curietherapy and radiotherapy in people with Prostate Cancer With Intermediate Risk, run by Centre Francois Baclesse at 1 site in France.

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

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 13 inclusion and 8 exclusion criteria. 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 Nov 2011. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study was stopped early (reason given: lack of recruitment). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Proportion of patients with a delivered dose by a boost of curietherapy is at least 40 Gy (D95) associated to a dose of 34 Gy for extern radiotherapy (time frame: at 5 months). 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 28 Nov 2011.
