Official title
Prospective Study of MR-guided Prostate Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy in Seven Days
Overview
The Proseven trial is a prospective interventional study that will evaluate the toxicity and efficacy of MR-guided stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) in the profound hypofractionated treatment of prostate cancer. Patients will be treated in 5 daily fractions within a short overall treatment time (OTT) of 7 days. A simultaneous integrated boost (SIB) will be delivered to the intraprostatic dominant lesion (if present) in this study. Besides a potential biological impact of this innovative prostate SBRT treatment, the reduced OTT offers also benefits in terms of patient convenience. The primary endpoint is clinician reported grade 2 or more acute gastrointestinal (GI) and genitourinary (GU) toxicity, assessed using CTCAE v 5.0 and RTOG, measured up to 3 months after the first treatment fraction.
Interventions
- Radiation MR-guided RT
The dose to the planning target volume (PTV) is 36 Gy (5 x 7.2 Gy) prescribed on the 90% isodose line. The clinical target volume (CTV) is receiving 40 Gy (5 x 8 Gy = 100%). A simultaneous integrated boost (SIB) up to a total dose of 42 Gy (5 x 8.4 Gy = 105%) is delivered to the gross tumor volume (GTV), if present. In addition, relative sparing of the urethra will be applied by avoiding hotspots (V40 Gy \< 1cc) in the urethra. Baseline and adapted treatment plans are generated using intensity-m
Primary outcome measures
- Acute toxicity according to CTCAE v 5.0 [Time frame: from the first treatment fraction up to 3 months]
- Acute toxicity according to RTOG criteria [Time frame: from the first treatment fraction up to 3 months]
Secondary outcome measures (9)
- Late toxicity according to CTCAE v 5.0 [Time frame: within 5 years after start of radiotherapy]
- Late toxicity according to RTOG criteria [Time frame: within 5 years after start of radiotherapy]
- Quality of life assessment [Time frame: from the start of radiotherapy until 5 years after treatment]
- Prostate specific quality of life assessment [Time frame: from the start of radiotherapy until 5 years after treatment]
- EPIC-26 quality of life [Time frame: from the start of radiotherapy until 5 years after treatment]
- IPSS quality of life [Time frame: from the start of radiotherapy until 5 years after treatment]
- Freedom from biochemical failure [Time frame: from start of radiotherapy until PSA relapse, assessed up to 5 years]
- Disease-free survival [Time frame: from start of radiotherapy until 5 years after treatment]
- Overall survival [Time frame: from start of radiotherapy until 5 years after treatment]
