Trial Outcomes & Findings for Randomized Trial of Image -Guided Stereotactic Radiation Therapy (IG-SRT) in Prostate Cancer (NCT NCT02911922)

NCT ID: NCT02911922

Last Updated: 2019-04-29

Results Overview

To compare acute toxicity (as defined by CTCAE v4.0) and to compare Rectal dose (V35, max rectal dose). Acute radiation toxicities are side effects that occur on treatment or in the immediate post treatment period (within 90 days from the start of radiation treatment).

Endorectal Balloon - Radiation Therapy
Group 1 : Endorectal balloon (ERB): Immobilization device manually placed into the rectum prior to radiation treatment planning CT and daily treatment delivery, to immobilize the prostate and reduce prostate motion.Patients on each arm will receive 5 fractions of radiation, 7.25Gy per fraction, delivered 2-3 times a week (every other day excluding weekends), to total dose of 36.25 Gy. The total duration of treatment will be no shorter than 10 days.

The total duration of treatment will be no shorter than 10 days.
Rectal Spacer - Radiation Therapy
Group 2 : Rectal spacer (RS): Biodegradable gel that is transperineally injected between the rectum and prostate under transrectal ultrasound guidance, to increase physical distance and thereby reduce radiation dose to the anterior rectal wall. The spacer begins to biodegrade in 2-3 months, and is fully absorbed within 6 months.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline to 1 year

Population: Data was not collected for the Rectal Spacer - Radiation Therapy arm because the trial was terminated due to lack of accrual.

To compare acute toxicity (as defined by CTCAE v4.0) and to compare Rectal dose (V35, max rectal dose). Acute radiation toxicities are side effects that occur on treatment or in the immediate post treatment period (within 90 days from the start of radiation treatment).

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 1 year

Population: Data was not collected for the Rectal Spacer - Radiation Therapy arm because the trial was terminated due to lack of accrual.

To compare health-related quality of life (HRQOL) measured using the Expanded Prostate Cancer Index Composite (EPIC) instrument for bowel, urinary and sexual domains. scores are transformed linearly to a 0-100 scale (see following page: EPIC scoring), with higher scores representing better HRQOL. American Urological Association (AUA) scores ranges from 0-30 scores where, score greater than 15 indicate high degree of urinary symptoms and scores less than 15 indicate low degree of urinary symptoms.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 5 years

Population: Data could not be analyzed for the secondary outcome measure as we needed more than one patient to compare two radiation techniques. The trial was terminated due to lack of accrual.

To compare the dose distribution of the 2 techniques, specifically: 1. coverage of the PTV 2. DVH of organs at risk (OAR) 3. prostate motion and shifts required during treatment

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: post RT to 1 year

Population: Data was not collected for the Rectal Spacer - Radiation Therapy arm because the trial was terminated due to lack of accrual.

To compare late toxicity (as defined by CTCAE v4.0). Late toxicities are toxicities that occur greater than 3 months after radiation therapy completion.
