About this study

Official title: Prostatic Size Reduction Following the Administration of Leuprorelin Acetate in Localized Prostate Cancer Prior to Radiation Therapy. Pilot Study.

To determine the possible reduction in prostate size following the administration of Leuprelin prior to the application of radiotherapy.

Read the detailed description

Prostate cancer (PC) is the most common tumor in men worldwide, including our country, with an incidence of 34,413 cases in 2020 (70.6 per 100,000 inhabitants) . The elevation of Prostate-Specific Antigen (PSA) in blood and/or an abnormality in rectal examination necessitate a prostate biopsy, the diagnostic procedure involving the extraction of a small prostate tissue sample for microscopic analysis and classification of cancer cells according to the Gleason scale (malignancy grade).

Once diagnosed, extension studies (thoraco-abdominal CT, Bone Scintigraphy, PET Choline, etc.) are conducted to rule out metastasis, the spread of tumor cells originating in the prostate, to other organs. The majority of PC cases are diagnosed at localized stages (without distant disease), allowing for local curative treatments such as surgery (Prostatectomy) and radiation therapy (Prostate Radiotherapy).

Hormonal androgen blockade (HAB) combined with radiation therapy improves oncological outcomes for localized PC . Additionally, HAB administered before radiation therapy results in a reduction in prostate gland size . This reduction allows for a decrease in the volume to be irradiated, leading to lower toxicity on surrounding healthy tissues and organs (primarily the bladder and rectum).

This apparent volume reduction is expected two months after initiating HAB, typically coinciding with the simulation CT scan for radiotherapeutic treatment planning. However, there are no studies certifying or quantifying this reduction and its subsequent benefits in PC treatment.

Currently, comparing prostate size pre- and post-HAB is challenging. The first measurement is obtained from ultrasound and/or MRI at the time of diagnosis, while the second measurement (post-HAB) is only taken during radiotherapist oncologist planning CT. This poses two problems: the inadequacy of comparing prostate sizes between different tests, and potential discrepancies in prostate delineation due to variations among different participating radiation oncologists.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Prostate Cancer Adenocarcinoma and Prostate Adenocarcinoma, 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 1 inclusion and 2 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 19 Sep 2024. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact nicolas feltes (619-819-9500, nicofeltes_81@hotmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

prostate size change (time frame: at 2 months of leupreline). 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 19 Sep 2024.
