Feasibility and Safety Study Using Preoperative High-Dose Single-Fraction Image-Guided Radiotherapy for Men Undergoing Radical Prostatectomy at High-Risk for Extraprostatic Cancer

NCT01163448 · Status: WITHDRAWN · Phase: PHASE1 · Type: INTERVENTIONAL

Last updated 2015-03-06

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

This study is being done to test the safety of a single high-dose of radiation therapy before radical prostatectomy (removal of the prostate). The investigators want to find out what effects, good and/or bad, the radiation will have on men undergoing prostatectomy. The investigators are especially interested in men who are at risk for having cancer cells that have spread outside the prostate.

RADIATION

High-Dose Single-Fraction Image-Guided Radiotherapy for Men Undergoing Radical Prostatectomy

A baseline DCE-MRI will be obtained prior to the day of radiotherapy treatment. Immediately following the delivery of radiotherapy another DCE-MRI will be performed to assess for perfusion changes in the prostate resulting from irradiation. RP will be completed within 6 weeks (+ 2 weeks) of radiation and the RP specimen will be assessed for radiation treatment effect and other pathologic parameters (including surgical margin status) by a dedicated genitourinary pathologist. Following RP, participants will follow-up with their surgeon every 3 months for one year, with visits alternating between the urologist and the radiation oncologist. After the first year follow-up will occur at 6 month intervals until the patient is 3 years out from surgery.
