Trial summary

Radiotherapy is a standard definitive treatment for men with localized prostate cancer. Recent improvements in technology allow high doses of radiation to be delivered to the prostate in less days with lower doses to surrounding healthy tissues, trying to reduce side effects.

About this study

Official title: Hypofractionated Radiotherapy for Prostate Cancer in 20 Sessions

Radiotherapy is a standard definitive treatment for men with localized prostate cancer.

Recent improvements in technology allow high doses of radiation to be delivered to the prostate in less days with lower doses to surrounding healthy tissues, trying to reduce side effects.

This study is being proposed to evaluate the use of moderate hypofractionated volumetric radiotherapy in localized prostate cancer patients and assessing treatment -related later adverse events using the CTCAE 4.0

Read the detailed description

Recent evidence suggests that the same or better outcomes might be achieved in prostate cancer by ussing a higher dose of radiation per fraction ( 3Gy) with the consequent decrease in total days Quality of life outcomes as well as gastrointestinal and genitourinary late toxicities will be analyzed.

It is thought that this regimen will produce comparable findings and would result in substantial health care cost savings, as well as, be more convenient for patients.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Hypofractionated volumetric radiotherapy in 20 fractionsRadiation

    Hypofractionated radiotherapy at 3 Gy per fraction for localized prostate cancer.

What is being measured

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

  1. Treatment-related adverse events assessed by CTCAE v4.0

    Number of patients with treatment-related adverse events as assessed by Common Toxicity Criteria for Adverse Effects v4.0

    Measured: Participants should be followed continuously, for the duration of 10 years

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Biochemical relapse free survival

    By Phoenix definition ( Nadir + 2 ng/ml) Participants should be followed at baseline and follow-up, for the duration of 10 years

    Measured: Participants should be followed continuously, for the duration of 10 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Prostate Cancer, run by Consorci Sanitari de Terrassa at 1 site in Spain.

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 3 inclusion and 10 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 10 Feb 2023. 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 Spain. 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?

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?

Treatment-related adverse events assessed by CTCAE v4.0 (time frame: Participants should be followed continuously, for the duration of 10 years). 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 10 Feb 2023.
