A study testing MRI and PSA Blood Test in people with Prostate Cancer, run by Dana-Farber Cancer Institute at 2 sites in United States.
Trial summary
In this research study, the investigators are trying to determine if there are measurable changes in prostate MRI that will help predict those who will or will not respond to Androgen Deprivation Therapy (ADT) and External Beam Radiation Therapy (EBRT) The first baseline prostate MRI prior to the start of treatment is… Read more about this study

- Ages 18 years and older
- Men only
- No healthy volunteers
- Adult, Older adult
Who may be able to join
- Adult males with unfavorable intermediate- to high-risk localized disease, defined as having one of the following three categories, Clinical or radiographic T2b-T4 primary tumor or Gleason score 7-10 in any core, or PSA ≥ 10 prior to initiation of therapy
- Patients are deemed suitable for therapy with ADT and EBRT.
- Subjects must to able to provide informed written consent prior to study entry.
Who cannot join
- The standard exclusion criteria for MRI exams will apply which include patients with pacemakers, non-compatible intra-cranial vascular clips, inner ear implants, and severe claustrophobia.
- Patients who because of age, general medical or psychiatric condition, or physiologic status unrelated to the presence of prostate cancer are unlikely to be candidates for repeat MRIs, or cannot give valid informed consent.

About this study
Official title: Early Changes in Multiparametric MRI in Response to Neoadjuvant Androgen Deprivation and External Beam Radiation Therapy for Prostate Cancer
In this research study, the investigators are trying to determine if there are measurable changes in prostate MRI that will help predict those who will or will not respond to Androgen Deprivation Therapy (ADT) and External Beam Radiation Therapy (EBRT) The first baseline prostate MRI prior to the start of treatment is standard of care. The participant's ADT/EBRT treatment is also standard of care, as advised by their doctor. It is the 3 follow up prostate MRIs during ADT/EBRT treatment, and 4 follow up serum PSA levels that are part of this research study.
Read the detailed description
If the participant chooses to take part in this research study, the participant will have 3 follow up prostate MRIs during a 6 month time period, while the participant is having their ADT/EBRT treatment. These follow-up prostate MRIs will use a standard imaging protocol without the use of an endorectal coil. The participant will also have a total of 4 blood samples to measure serum PSA. 1-2 mls (just less than ½ teaspoon) will be taken for each sample.
Research Study Plan
- Baseline Visit (routine standard of care screening visit): PSA blood test and prostate MRI
- Visit 1 (8 weeks after starting ADT): PSA blood test and prostate MRI
- Visit 2 (6 weeks after starting EBRT): PSA blood test and prostate MRI
- Visit 3 (on last day of EBRT): PSA blood test
- Visit 4 (6 months after starting ADT): PSA blood test and prostate MRI
Planned Follow-up: The investigator would like to keep track of the participant's prostate cancer status while they continue to see their doctor at DFCI. The investigators would like to do this by collecting the following data from the participant's medical records, to look at long-term outcome of their ADT/EBRT treatment.
- PSA values
- Clinical results of your treatment. The investigator will not contact the participant to obtain this information.

Serum PSA will also be subsequently checked on the same day as each follow-up MR is performed, i.e. TP 1, 2 and 3, and right after finishing EBRT. 1-2 mls of blood will be sampled per blood test.

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

Clinical summary
The research question as the sponsor registered it. This describes what the study plans to test, not what it found.
In this research study, the investigators are trying to determine if there are measurable changes in prostate MRI that will help predict those who will or will not respond to Androgen Deprivation Therapy (ADT) and External Beam Radiation Therapy (EBRT) The first baseline prostate MRI prior to the start of treatment is standard of care. The participant's ADT/EBRT treatment is also standard of care, as advised by their doctor. It is the 3 follow up prostate MRIs during ADT/EBRT treatment, and 4 follow up serum PSA levels that are part of this research study.
Detailed description
If the participant chooses to take part in this research study, the participant will have 3 follow up prostate MRIs during a 6 month time period, while the participant is having their ADT/EBRT treatment. These follow-up prostate MRIs will use a standard imaging protocol without the use of an endorectal coil.
