About this study

Official title: Salvage Treatment or Active Clinical Surveillance for Oligometastatic Prostate Cancer: a Randomized Phase II Trial

Prostate cancer patients diagnosed with a biochemical recurrence and limited metastases are conventionally treated with androgen deprivation therapy. However, in patients with limited metastatic load, the time to progression might be. Subsequently, active surveillance of these patients until progression might defer the start of androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) for several months to years. As an alternative, salvage treatment of the limited number of metastases with either surgery or radiotherapy might postpone the start of ADT even longer. The current trial hypothesizes that ADT might be deferred longer following salvage treatment as compared to active surveillance.

What is being measured

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

  1. Androgen deprivation therapy free survival.

    Androgen deprivation therapy free survival will be calculated from randomization until androgen deprivation therapy is started.

    Measured: From date of randomization until androgen deprivation therapy is started, assessed up to 2 years.

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Quality of life questionnaire 1.

    Questionnaire: European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality Of Life C30 (EORTC QLQ C30)

    Measured: At 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, 24 months

  2. Quality of Life questionnaire 2.

    Questionnaire: Short Form (36) Health Survey (SF36)

    Measured: At 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, 24 months

  3. Quality of life questionnaire 3

    Questionnaire: EORTC QLQ PR25

    Measured: At 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, 24 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Surveillance and Salvage treatment in people with Prostate Cancer, run by University Hospital, Ghent at 1 site in Belgium.

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 4 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Sep 2023. 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 Belgium. 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 is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Androgen deprivation therapy free survival. (time frame: From date of randomization until androgen deprivation therapy is started, assessed up to 2 years.). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01558427, which also lists 4 linked publications.

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 5 Sep 2023.
