About this study

Official title: Dominant Intraprostatic Lesion Boost With Focused LDR Brachytherapy (BT) Integrated to Whole Prostate HDR BT: Safety and Feasibility Analysis

This is a dose finding Phase I/II study of combined focused LDR brachytherapy boost with whole gland single fraction HDR for men with low and intermediate risk prostate cancer and Dominant Intraprostatic Lesion (DIL) visible on multi parametric MRI. Patients will receive 19 Gy HDR to the whole gland with concurrent LDR brachytherapy boost to the DIL, in a sequential dose escalation manner. Primary endpoints are early toxicity.

Read the detailed description

Eligible patients will have low and intermediate risk prostate cancer with a dominant intraprostatic lesion definable on multi parametric MRI (PIRADS 4 or 5). Patients will have MR planned LDR focal brachytherapy to the DIL using iodine-125, while at the same time have single 19 Gy delivered to the whole prostate using ultrasound directed high dose-rate brachytherapy (HDR). The LDR boost dose will start at 50 Gy, and increase DIL dose in sequential cohorts of patients up until a dose of 80 Gy. Up to 20 patients will be included. Primary endpoint is toxicity at 3 months.

What is being measured

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

  1. Acute urinary and rectal toxicity at 3 months as measured using NCI CTCAE v 4.0

    Acute urinary and rectal toxicity within the first 3 months as measured using NCI CTCAE v4.0

    Measured: At 3 months

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Late urinary and rectal toxicity using NCI CTCAE v4.0

    Cumulative incidence of urinary and rectal toxicity beyond 3 months using NCI CTCAE v4.0.

    Measured: 3-monthly for first year, then 6-monthly until Year 5

  2. Health related quality of life (HRQOL) changes

    Changes in HRQOL as assessed using Expanded Prostate Index Composite (EPIC)

    Measured: 3 monthly for first year, then annually year 1-5

  3. Disease Free Survival

    biochemical disease-free survival using PSA nadir + 2 ng/ml definition (Phoenix)

    Measured: will be reported at 5 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing LDR/HDR in people with Carcinoma Prostate, run by Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre at 1 site in Canada.

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 7 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 27 Apr 2021. 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 Canada. 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 combined 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.

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 was stopped early (reason given: Slow accrual). 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?

Acute urinary and rectal toxicity at 3 months as measured using NCI CTCAE v 4.0 (time frame: At 3 months). 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 27 Apr 2021.
