About this study

Official title: Hypofractionated Post-operative IMRT in Prostate Carcinoma: a Phase I/II Study

To report the outcome of hypo-fractionated radiotherapy after radical prostatectomy (RP) for prostate cancer (PCa) using IMRT-SIB. 124 patients with PCa at high risk of relapse after RP or diagnosis of biochemical relapse were included. Patients received 62.5 Gy to the prostate bed (PB) and 45 Gy to pelvis nodes in 25 fractions. Androgen suppressive therapy was prescribed based on NCCN risk categories. Median follow-up was 30 months.

Read the detailed description

To report the outcome of hypo-fractionated radiation therapy after radical prostatectomy (RP) for prostate cancer (PCa) using intensity-modulated radiation treatment with simultaneous integrated boost (IMRT-SIB).

One hundred and twenty-four patients with PCa at high risk of relapse after RP or diagnosis of biochemical relapse were included in this phase II study (adjuvant: 106 patients, salvage: 18 patients). All patients received 62.5 Gy to the prostate bed (PB) and 45 Gy to pelvis nodes in 25 fractions. Androgen suppressive therapy was prescribed based on NCCN risk categories. Acute and late toxicities were recorded and evaluated according to RTOG (Radiation Therapy Oncology Group) criteria and RTOG-EORTC (European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer) scale, respectively.

Median follow-up was 30 months (13-92).

What is being measured

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

  1. incidence of early treatment-emergent adverse events

    adverse events after radiotherapy. Acute side effets were scored according to the Radiation Therapy Oncology Group (RTOG) scale.

    Measured: < 90 days

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Biochemical relapse free survival

    Survival free from increase of PSA livel exceeding 0.2 ng/mL for those with post surgical PSA livel of 0.2 ng/mL or lower, and as two consecutive PSA increases for patients with a postsurgical PSA livel of > 0.2 ng/mL

    Measured: 5 years

  2. incidence of late treatment-emergent adverse events were assessed with Radiation

    Late complications were assessed with delete Radiation Morbidity Scoring Scheme of the RTOG/European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC)

    Measured: 5 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Hypo-fractionated postoperative IMRT-SIB in people with Prostate Cancer, run by IRCCS Azienda Ospedaliero-Universitaria di Bologna.

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 9 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 6 Mar 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

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?

incidence of early treatment-emergent adverse events (time frame: < 90 days). 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 6 Mar 2018.
