About this study

Official title: High-Dose Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy in Treating Patients With Low-, Intermediate-, or High-Risk Localized Prostate Cancer

This clinical trial studies high-dose stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) in treating patients with low-, intermediate-, or high-risk localized prostate cancer. SBRT may be able to send x-rays directly to the tumor and cause less damage to normal tissue

Read the detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To assess treatment related gastrointestinal (GI) and genitourinary (GU) toxicity for patients who undergo SBRT for localized prostate cancer.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. Follow quality of life after SBRT using Expanded Prostate Cancer Index Composite (EPIC) and American Urological Association (AUA) scores.

II. Assess biochemical control after high-dose SBRT.

OUTLINE:

Patients undergo 5 fractions of prostate stereotactic body radiation therapy over 10-12 days with at least 40 hours between each fraction in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up at 1.5, 4, 8, and 12 months, every 6 months for 4 years, and then annually thereafter.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing stereotactic body radiation therapy, quality-of-life assessment and laboratory biomarker analysis in people with Adenocarcinoma of the Prostate and Recurrent Prostate Cancer, run by Case Comprehensive Cancer Center at 1 site in United States.

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 8 inclusion and 12 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 21 May 2020. 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 United States. 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.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 18 Sep 2019). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Number of Patients With Treatment Related GI and/or GU Toxicity as Assessed by the NCI CTCTAE Version 4.0 (time frame: 1.5 months). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT01664130, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 21 May 2020.
