Official title
OASIS: SpaceOAR PoSt - Market Registry Study: Assessing the Safety & Acceptability of SpaceOAR Use With Prostate Radiotherapy
Overview
Recently, concerns have been raised by regulators that there is little data about the long-term safety of rectal hydrogel spacers for use in conjunction with radiotherapy treatment for prostate cancer. To address this, this study will collect data about the short-term side-effects and long-term safety of SpaceOAR and SpaceOAR Vue rectal hydrogel spacers in men who receive them in the UK and France. Men who have agreed to receive these spacers as part of their standard medical care will be asked to take part in the study whereby data about their treatment and health will be collected from their medical records and from members of the clinical team who deliver their treatment. Additionally, men will be asked to consent to completing questionnaires about their experiences of side effects from their treatment. Further information will be collected about their clinical characteristics before they receive a spacer, the physician-rated clinical performance of the spacer insertion procedure, their radiotherapy treatment plan and details of the other treatments they are also receiving which could influence the types and extent of side effects they experience. Data collection will span eight time points: pre-spacer insertion, spacer insertion, the start of radiotherapy, post-radiotherapy follow-up, 6-month follow-up, 12-month follow-up, 24-month follow-up \& 36-month follow-ups. Outside of these timepoints treatment-related adverse event data will be concurrently reported and collated. Participants' treatments will not be changed as a result of their participation in this study. Data from this study will be used to summarise the characteristics of this study population, physicians' perceptions of the spacer implantation procedure, the radiotherapy treatments plans made, and the types, extent and timing of treatment-related adverse events and side effects.
Interventions
- Device SpaceOAR / SpaceOAR Vue hydrogel system
Space OAR/SpaceOAR Vue Systems are biodegradable medical devices that are implanted between the prostate and rectum to temporarily move part of the rectal wall away from the prostate during radiation therapy for prostate cancer.
Primary outcome measures
- Short-term safety of SpaceOAR/SpaceOAR Vue systems. [Time frame: 30 days post-implantation]
- Long-Term Safety of SpaceOAR/SpaceOAR Vue Systems [Time frame: Up to 3 years post-radiation therapy]
Secondary outcome measures (10)
- Proportion of subjects with Grade 2* & above; gastrointestinal, anorectal, genitourinary toxicity at 12, 24 & 36 months. [Time frame: 12, 24, and 36 months post-radiation therapy]
- Physician rating of SpaceOAR/SpaceOAR Vue of Placement Difficulty [Time frame: At time of implantation]
- Patient Perception of SpaceOAR/SpaceOAR Vue Procedure Compared to Prostate Biopsy [Time frame: Within 30 days post-procedure]
- Overall Mortality and Cause of Death [Time frame: Up to 36 months]
- Selection Criteria for SpaceOAR/SpaceOAR Vue Placement [Time frame: At enrolment]
- Time to Onset of Grade ≥2 Gastrointestinal, Anorectal, and Genitourinary Toxicity [Time frame: Up to 36 months]
- Impact of treatment on bowel function, urinary function, sexual function and overall quality of life as measured by EPIC-26 [Time frame: Baseline, 12, 24 and 36 months]
- Impact of treatment on bowel function, urinary function, sexual function and overall quality of life as measured by IPSS [Time frame: Baseline, 12, 24 and 36 months]
- Impact of treatment on bowel function as measured by Vaizey incontinence score [Time frame: Baseline, 12, 24 and 36 months]
- Impact of concomitant prostate cancer treatment usually Androgen Deprivation Therapy (ADT) on the lives of participants as measured by The Symptom Index [Time frame: Baseline, 12, 24, 36 months]
