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
Overview
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.
Interventions
- Radiation Salvage radiation therapy
Salvage radiation therapy for biochemical recurrence
Primary outcome measures
- Biochemical recurrence-free survival [Time frame: 5 years]
Secondary outcome measures (4)
- Acute toxicities [Time frame: Adverse effects occured during radiation therapy, and within 3 months after radiation therapy]
- Chronic toxicities [Time frame: Adverse effects occured after 3 months since end of radiation therapy]
- Quality of life 1 [Time frame: the date of enrollment, up to 1 week after radiation therapy, 6 months, every year until 5 years]
- Quality of life 2 [Time frame: the date of enrollment, up to 1 week after radiation therapy, 6 months, every year until 5 years]
