Clinical Trial Summary

This pilot clinical trial studies magnetic resonance (MRI)-guided focal stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) in treating patients with low- or intermediate-risk localized prostate cancer. Stereotactic radiosurgery may be able to send x-rays directly to the tumor and cause less damage to normal tissue.

Description:

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

I. Evaluate the correlation of histopathology findings in comparison to regions of the prostate reported to be suspicious for harboring tumor burden on multiparametric MRI report/s.

II. Demonstration of the dosimetric and radiobiological advantages of focal stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) versus whole-gland radiation therapy.

III. Evaluation of clinical outcomes in focal SBRT for localized prostate cancer.

OUTLINE:

Patients undergo 3 fractions of MRI-guided focal SRS every other day for 1 week. Patients undergo additional MRI scans between the 2nd and 3rd fractionated treatments, at 6 months following the end of radiation therapy, and at 12 and 24 months.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up every 3 months for up to 24 months.

• Patients must be able to undergo an MRI with contrast

• Bone scan completed within 90 days

Exclusion Criteria:

• Evidence of distant metastases

• Previous radical surgery (prostatectomy), cryosurgery, or high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) for prostate cancer

• Previous pelvic irradiation, prostate brachytherapy, or bilateral orchiectomy

• Previous hormonal therapy, such as luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LHRH) agonists (e.g., goserelin, leuprolide) or LHRH antagonists (e.g., degarelix), anti-androgens (e.g., flutamide, bicalutamide), estrogens (e.g., diethylstilbestrol [DES]), or surgical castration (orchiectomy)

• Use of finasteride within 30 days prior to registration; PSA should not be obtained prior to 30 days after stopping finasteride

• Use of dutasteride within 90 days prior to registration; PSA should not be obtained prior to 90 days after stopping dutasteride

• Previous or concurrent cytotoxic chemotherapy for prostate cancer

• Severe, active co-morbidity, defined as follows:

• Unstable angina and/or congestive heart failure requiring hospitalization within the last 6 months

• Transmural myocardial infarction within the last 6 months

• Acute bacterial or fungal infection requiring intravenous antibiotics at the time of registration

• Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease exacerbation or other respiratory illness requiring hospitalization or precluding study therapy at the time of registration

• Hepatic insufficiency resulting in clinical jaundice and/or coagulation defects; note, however, that laboratory tests for liver function and coagulation parameters are not required for entry into this protocol; (patients on Coumadin or other blood thinning agents are eligible for this study)

• Acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) based upon current Centers for Disease and Control (CDC) definition; note, however, that human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) testing is not required for entry into this protocol; protocol-specific requirements may also exclude immuno-compromised patients

• Patients unable to undergo an MRI with contrast

Intervention

Radiation:
• stereotactic radiosurgery
Undergo MRI-guided focal SRS

Device:
• magnetic resonance imaging
Undergo staging MRI with contrast

Other:
• quality-of-life assessment
Quality of life scores will be summarized graphically and repeated measures of variance will be conducted to test for changes in scores over time

Procedure:
• Serum Prostate Antigen Test
Test of the PSA protein in blood. The test will be run every three months for up to two years during the study.
• Digital Rectal Exam
Exam of rectal health. Performed every three months for up to two years throughout the study.

Behavioral:
• Expanded Prostate Cancer Index Composite
This survey measures a patient's function and bother after prostate cancer treatment. It will be analyzed using ANOVA using data collected every 6 months for up to 2 years of the study.
