Who can take part

AI summary

From the trial's eligibility criteria. Machine-read from the registry text on this page, so it can be wrong. The registry text below and the trial team decide who can take part.

The trial is looking for men with high-risk prostate cancer, confirmed by a tissue sample, who can have radiation treatment to the prostate.

Age
18 Years to 99 Years
Sex
Men only
Disease stage
High-risk prostate cancer: at least one of T3, Gleason 8-10, or PSA above 20 ng/mL. Prostate adenocarcinoma confirmed by a tissue sample.
Earlier treatment
No earlier radiotherapy to the pelvis.

Main reasons for not taking part

  • Earlier radiotherapy to the pelvis
  • A medical reason against radical prostate radiotherapy, for example connective tissue disease or inflammatory bowel disease
  • A medical reason against a prostate MRI scan
  • Cancer spread to lymph nodes outside the pelvis or to distant organs
  • Hormone therapy started because the PSA was rising

The registry criteria, word for word

Show all 8 criteriaShow less

Who can take part

  • Histologically confirmed prostate adenocarcinoma
  • High-risk prostate cancer, defined as at least one of: T3, Gleason 8-10, OR PSA > 20 ng/mL
  • Willing to give informed consent to participate in this clinical trial

Who cannot take part

  • Prior pelvic radiotherapy
  • Contraindication to radical prostate radiotherapy e.g. connective tissue disease or inflammatory bowel disease
  • Definitive extrapelvic nodal or distant metastatic disease on staging investigations
  • Contraindication to prostate MRI
  • No evidence of castrate resistance (defined as PSA < 3 ng/ml while testosterone is < 0.7nmol/l. Patients could have been on combined androgen blockade but are excluded if this was started due to PSA progression

About the trial

What the trial wants to find out

Stereotactic Ablative Radiation (SABR/SBRT) will be prescribed to a dose of 35 Gy in 5 fractions, once weekly to prostate with a simultaneous intra-prostatic boost to the MR detected nodule up to 50Gy. The pelvic lymph nodes and seminal vesicles will also receive 25 Gy in 5 weekly fractions.

The group in the trial

  • Experimental armTreatment being tested

    SABR 35Gy/5 to prostate, up to 50Gy/5 to MR nodule, and 25Gy/5 to pelvic nodes and SVs

    Treatment: Pelvic SABR with intra-prostatic SABR
