About this study

Official title: Comparison of Salvage Hypofractionated Accelerated Versus Standard Radiotherapy for Biochemical Recurrence After Radical Prostatectomy (SHARE Trial): a Prospective, Randomized Controlled, Open-label, Multi Center, Superiority Study

Patients with a biochemical recurrence after radical prostatectomy for moderate- or high- risk prostate cancer are randomly assigned to hypofractionated, accelerated high dose radiation therapy group (65 Gy, 26 fractions) and a control group of standard treatment group (66 Gy, 33 fractions). The criteria for stratification at randomization include 1) risk groups, 2) androgen deprivation therapy, and 3) PSA before salvage radiation therapy, which affect biochemical recurrence.

It is expected that hypofractionated, accelerated high dose radiation therapy will have a superiority in terms of biochemical control to conventional radiation therapy, and the present study would like to confirm this. In addition, we aimed to evaluate and compare the toxicity and quality of life index of two radiation therapy regimens.

What is being measured

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

  1. Biochemical recurrence-free survival

    PSA >0.2 ng/mLfollowed by a repeat measurement >0.2 ng/mL

    Measured: 5 years

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Acute toxicities

    Evaulation using CTCAE 4.0 Evaluation using CTCAE 4.0 CTCAE 4.0

    Measured: Adverse effects occured during radiation therapy, and within 3 months after radiation therapy

  2. Chronic toxicities

    Evaulation using CTCAE 4.0

    Measured: Adverse effects occured after 3 months since end of radiation therapy

  3. Quality of life 1

    Expanded prostate cancer index composite (EPIC) Questionnaire Korean version EPIC consists of 50 questions in total divided into four domains: bowel (14 questions), urinary (12 questions), sexual (13 questions), and hormonal aspects (13 questions).

    Scores of each domain will be separately reported. Response options for each EPIC item form a Likert scale, and multi-item scale scores will be summed and transformed linearly to a 0-to-100 scale.

    The higher the score, the higher the quality of life.

    Measured: the date of enrollment, up to 1 week after radiation therapy, 6 months, every year until 5 years

  4. Quality of life 2

    European Organization for Research and Treatment Core Quality of Life Questionnaire (EORTC QLQ-C30) Korean version EORTC QLQ-C30 consists of 30 questions, and total score will be reported. Response options for each EPIC question form a Likert scale, and multi-item scale scores will be summed and transformed linearly to a 0-to-100 scale.

    The higher the score, the higher the quality of life.

    Measured: the date of enrollment, up to 1 week after radiation therapy, 6 months, every year until 5 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Salvage radiation therapy in people with Prostate Cancer and Biochemical Recurrence, run by Asan Medical Center at 2 sites in South Korea.

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 6 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 20 Jan 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in South Korea. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Young Seok Kim, M.D., Ph.D. (82 2 3010 5614 ext. 5614, ysk@amc.seoul.kr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Biochemical recurrence-free survival (time frame: 5 years). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03920033, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 20 Jan 2021.
