About this study

Official title: Phase I Study of Hypo-Fractionated Radiation Therapy (HRT) for Localized Prostate Cancer

The aim of this study is to determine the maximum tolerated dose of hypo-fractionated radiation therapy and the toxicity of the treatment program.

Eligible patients with stage T1-2c prostate cancer who sign consent will be enrolled to this phase I dose escalation trial and be treated with hypo-fractionated radiation therapy (HRT). Dose escalation will be as follows:

There will be 3 cohorts consisting of 3 patients each.

Read the detailed description

Dose escalation will be as follows:

There will be 3 cohorts consisting of 3 patients each. All patients will receive 18 fractions of HRT over the course of 6 weeks (3 fractions per week). Dose level I will be 54Gy (3 Gy per fraction), dose level II will be 55.8 Gy (3.1Gy per fraction), dose level III will be 57.6 Gy (3.2 Gy per fraction). After accrual of dose level I, all patients will be observed for a minimum of two weeks after completion of radiation treatments, for assessment of toxicity, before the dose can be escalated for the next cohort. After dose level II, patients will be observed for 6 months before enrolling patients on dose level III.

All patients will be seen weekly by their radiation oncologist during radiation therapy. Any observations regarding radiation reactions will be recorded.

What is being measured

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

  1. the maximum tolerated dose of HRT

    After accrual of dose level I, all patients will be observed for a minimum of two weeks after completion of radiation treatments, for assessment of toxicity, before the dose can be escalated for the next cohort. After dose level II, patients will be observed for 6 months before enrolling patients on dose level III.

    Measured: 30 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Radiation in people with Prostate Cancer, run by NYU Langone Health 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 7 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 Aug 2017. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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: PI no longer with the institution). 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?

the maximum tolerated dose of HRT (time frame: 30 weeks). 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 Aug 2017.
