Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 years and older
  • Men only
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: Patients affected by macroscopic prostate bed relapse

Who may be able to join

  • Patients affected by biochemical recurrence after radical prostatectomy for prostate cancer (defined as a PSA increase > 0.2 ng/ml)
  • Presence of macroscopic recurrence in prostate bed, determined with either Choline or PSMA PET imaging and confirmed through MRI (except for cases in which MRI is contraindicated)
  • Absence of distant and/or regional sites of disease outside prostate bed
  • Patients free from Androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) (Adjuvant ADT after radical prostatectomy for pN+ patients is allowed if > 12 months from biochemical recurrence)

Who cannot join

  • Presence of distant and/or regional sites of disease outside prostate bed
  • Patient undergoing ADT or withdrawal of adjuvant ADT within12 months from biochemical recurrence
  • Absence of disease detection from one of the two imaging modalities used (Choline or PSMA Pet and MRI must be positive- except for cases in which MRI is contraindicated)
  • Any condition for which, in the opinion of the treating physician, SSRT would be contraindicated for the patient (i.e peristence of moderate/severe urinary distress after prostatectomy, post-surgical complications etc)

About this study

Official title: STereotactic sAlvage Radiotherapy for Macroscopic Prostate Bed Recurrence After prostatectomy-a Prospective Observational Study -STARR

STereotactic sAlvage Radiotherapy for macroscopic prostate bed Recurrence after prostatectomy (STARR trial) is a prospective observational study aimed to assess outcome after Stereotactic salvage radiotherapy (SSRT) for macroscopic prostate bed recurrence after radical prostatectomy.

Read the detailed description

This is a prospective observational multicenter study including patients affected by patients with macroscopic recurrence within prostate bed after RP detected with Choline or PSMA CT-PET and confirmed with pelvic MRI (except for cases in which MRI is contraindicated). Patients will be treated with SSRT on macroscopic prostate bed recurrence for a total dose of from 35 in 5 fractions. Planned size of the overall study population is 90 patients. The study will include a screening phase and a treatment phase. The screening phase allows for assessment of subject eligibility, demographics, PSA, comorbidities and current drug therapies up to 45 days prior to randomization.

The treatment phase consists of SSRT administered on prostate bed macroscopic recurrence. Different techniques will be allowed provided that treatment respects doses and fractionation indicated per-protocol (35 Gy in 5 fractions) and that dose constraints to organs at risk (OAR) reported in this document are observed. The total planned duration of the study is 40 months, consisting in 16 months enrollment period, during which patients will perform the screening and and later phase of 24 months in which patients will continue to be submitted to periodic checks every 3 months.

    Stereotactic prostate salvage radiotherapy administered on prostate bed macroscopic recurrence. Different techniques will be allowed provided that treatment respects doses and fractionation indicated per-protocol (35 Gy in 5 fractions)

What is being measured

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

  1. Biochemical relapse free survival (BRFS)

    Primary endpoint of the study is BRFS after treatment, biochemical relapse is defined as a PSA increase above 0.2 ng/ml for patients with a PSA nadir < 0.2 ng/ml or 2 consecutive PSA increases > 25% if compared to nadir in patients with a PSA nadir > 0.2 ng/ml.

    Measured: 2 year

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Rate of patients with complete response

    Complete response is defined as PSA nadir <0.2 ng/ml

    Measured: at 2 years after treatment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Prostate Cancer and Relapse, run by Azienda Ospedaliero-Universitaria Careggi at 1 site in Italy.

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 4 inclusion and 4 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 13 Jul 2022. 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 Italy. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Each site lists its own contact: choose the nearest one under Trial locations. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Biochemical relapse free survival (BRFS) (time frame: 2 year). 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 13 Jul 2022.
