This study assesses feasibility and safety, the primary outcomes, of MRI guided transurethral high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) ablation for prostate diseases (PD). We will enrol 10 patients to each group with criteria as follows: localised prostate cancer (PC); locally advanced PC; locally recurrent PC after external beam radiation therapy (EBRT); benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). Secondary outcomes are both oncologic and functional outcomes and imaging based follow up after HIFU therapy will be also assessed.

Type | Measure | Description | Time frame | Safety issue |
---|---|---|---|---|
Other | Preliminary efficacy of MRI guided transurethral HIFU ablation in locally recurrent PC after EBRT in terms of serum PSA response. | Explore and characterise short- and medium-term pattern of S-PSA response following HIFU ablation. Serum PSA will be measured before HIFU ablation and predetermined interval during follow up protocol after HIFU ablation. The serum PSA trend and nadir following HIFU ablation will be demonstrated. | 12 months from the treatment date | |
Other | Evaluate voiding function by using uroflowmetry before and after HIFU ablation separately in each arm/group. | Voiding function is assessed separately in each group/arm by:
- measuring the rate of flow of voided urine using a flowmeter, a device that measures the quantity of urine (volume) voided per unit time (uroflowmetry). The measurement is expressed in millilitres per second (ml/s). The data from uroflowmetry before and after HIFU ablation will be compared. |
12 months from the treatment date | |
Other | Evaluate voiding function by measuring PVR before and after HIFU ablation separately in each arm/group. | Voiding function is assessed separately in each group/arm by:
- post-voided residual urine (PVR) (volume in ml), which estimates the completeness of bladder emptying using a handheld ultrasonic bladder scanner. The PVR before and after HIFU ablation will be compared. |
12 months from the treatment date | |
Other | Evaluation of QoL following HIFU ablation in each prostate cancer arm/group | Evaluation of QoL using standardised questionnaire:
- 26-item short-form version of EPIC, The Expanded Prostate Index Composite QoL questionnaire before and after HIFU ablation are compared. The measure is a composite outcome measure reported as single value for each arm/group. |
12 months from the treatment date | |
Other | Evaluation of change in urinary symptoms following HIFU ablation in BPH group | Quality of life questionnaire, International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS), is used to assess urinary symptoms following HIFU therapy. IPSS consists of seven question concerning urinary symptoms (points from 0 to 5) and one separate question concerning quality of life (points from 0 to 6). The total score of questions related to urinary symptoms can range from 0 to 35. The baseline IPSS score is compared to IPSS scores obtained from predetermined follow up protocol following HIFU therapy to characterise HIFU therapy´s short- (1 week, 3 and 6 months) and medium-term (12 months) impact on lower urinary tract function. A significant change in IPSS is defined as a change of > 3 points.
The change in total points of IPSS between baseline and most recent follow up visit is measured. |
12 months from the treatment date | |
Other | Evaluation of change in erectile function following HIFU ablation in BPH group | Quality of life questionnaire, International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF-15), is used to assess sexual function following HIFU therapy. A score of 0-5 is awarded to each of the 15 questions that examine 4 main domain of male sexual function: erectile function, orgasmic function, sexual desire and intercourse satisfaction.
Change in total score and each domain of IIEF-15 separately are measured between the baseline and most recent follow-up visit. |
12 months from the treatment date | |
Other | Evaluate painfulness of HIFU therapy in treating various prostate diseases | The pain is assessed predetermined interval during follow up using Visual Analog Scale for pain (VAS for pain, numerical rating scale 1-10).
The measure is a composite outcome measure reported as single value for each arm/group. |
12 months from the treatment date | |
Primary | Evaluate targeting accuracy of HIFU ablation separately in each study arm/group. | Quantitative analysis of targeting accuracy is defined as spatial difference between target prostate region in treatment planning phase and the target temperature isotherm (57°C) at the end of HIFU treatment on MRI thermometry. The measure used is dice similarity coefficient (DSC - unitless from 0 to 1) which is a statistical validation metric to measure the degree of spatial overlap between two regions.
The measure is a composite outcome measure reported as single value for each arm/group. |
The date of HIFU treatment | |
Primary | Evaluate targeting accuracy volume of HIFU ablation separately in each study arm/group. | Quantitative analysis of targeting accuracy volume illustrates over- and under-treatment representing the amount of tissue = target temperature 57°C outside the target volume and < target temperature 57°C inside the target volume, respectively.
Over- and under-treatment volumes are expressed as a % of the target volume. The measure is a composite outcome measure reported as single value for each arm/group. |
The date of HIFU treatment | |
Primary | Radiologically determined treatment accuracy of HIFU ablation in localised PC arm/group. | Quantitative analysis of radiologically verified treatment accuracy; determined by comparing targeting volumes on MRI during treatment planning to immediate, 1 and 3 week NPV in CE-MRI following HIFU therapy. The ratio in percentage (%) between target prostate volume (ml) and NPV (ml) will be measured. | 3-4 weeks from the treatment date | |
Primary | Histopathologically determined treatment accuracy of HIFU ablation in localised PC arm/group. | Qualitative analysis of treatment accuracy; determined by comparing both targeting volume on MRI during treatment planning and immediate, 1 and 3 weeks NPV following HIFU therapy separately to histopathologically verified coagulation necrosis volume from the removed prostate at 3 week after HIFU therapy. The ratio in percentage between target prostate volume (ml) and NPV (ml) to coagulative necrosis volume (ml) will be measured. | 3-4 weeks from the treatment date | |
Primary | Radiologically determined treatment accuracy of HIFU ablation in locally advanced PC arm/group. | Quantitative analysis of treatment accuracy; determined by comparing targeting volume on MRI during treatment planning to immediate, 1 week and 12 months NPV in CE-MRI following HIFU therapy.
The ratio in percentage between target prostate volume (ml) and NPV (ml) will be measured. |
12 months from the treatment date | |
Primary | Radiologically determined treatment accuracy of HIFU ablation in locally recurrent PC after EBRT arm/group. | Quantitative analysis of treatment accuracy; determined by comparing targeting volume on MRI during treatment planning to immediate, 1 week and 12 months NPV in CE-MRI following HIFU therapy.
The ratio in percentage between target prostate volume (ml) and non-perfused volume (ml) will be measured. |
12 months from the treatment date | |
Primary | Radiologically determined treatment accuracy of HIFU ablation in BPH arm/group. | Quantitative analysis of treatment accuracy; determined by comparing targeting volume on MRI during treatment planning to immediate, 1 week and 12 months NPV in CE-MRI following HIFU therapy. The ratio in percentage between target prostate volume (ml) and NPV (ml) will be measured. | 12 months from the treatment date | |
Primary | Safety of MRI guided transurethral HIFU ablation in various prostate diseases | Safety is determined in each group and all group together by evaluation of the frequency and severity of device/treatment related adverse events associated with the use of TULSA-PRO system to ablate prostate tissue. The severity of the adverse events are graded according to the Clavien-Dindo Classification of surgical complications.
The measure is a composite outcome measure reported as single value for each arm/group. |
12 months from the treatment date | |
Secondary | Preliminary efficacy of HIFU ablation to achieve sufficient tumour control in patients having local recurrent PC after EBRT | Histopathological evaluation of the treatment response is based on 2-6-core biopsy results obtained from HIFU treated region/volume at 12 months. The number of biopsies taken is depended on the size and extension of the primary lesion treated with HIFU. The cognitive transrectal ultrasound guided biopsy method will be used to confirm histologically anticipated treatment success; coagulative necrosis/fibrosis/scar tissue of the prostate tissue. The outcome of biopsies (negativity/positivity for prostate cancer) will be measured. The proportion of patients with negative prostate biopsy will be measured at 12 months follow-up visit. | 12 months from the treatment date | |
Secondary | Image based follow up following HIFU ablation | Evaluation and characterisation of image based follow up with repetitive mpMRI (Arm/group 1: immediate, 1 and 3 week, Arms/Groups 2, 3 and 4: immediate, 1 week, 12 month) after HIFU treatment. Image based follow up will be focused on modifications and development of the rim of enhancement surrounding NPV and the evolution of NPV following HIFU treatment. | 12 months from the treatment date |
