CT-guided Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy and MRI-guided Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy for Prostate Cancer, MIRAGE Study

Magnetic Resonance Imaging-Guided Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy for Prostate Cancer (Mirage): A Phase III Randomized Trial

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 11 May 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

This phase III trial studies compares CT-guided stereotactic body radiation therapy and MRI-guided stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) in treating prostate cancer. Image-guided SBRT is a standard treatment for prostate cancer, which combines imaging of the cancer within the body with the delivery of therapeutic radiation doses produced on a linear accelerator machine. Imaging modalities for image-guided SBRT can be either computed tomography imaging (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), or a combination of the two. This research is being done to help determine whether there are benefits to MRI-guidance over CT-guidance in patients who are receiving the same radiation dose by SBRT to treat prostate cancer.

Who cannot take part

Copied verbatim from ClinicalTrials.gov and grouped by topic. Only the trial team decides who can take part.

Prior treatment

  • Prior cryosurgery, high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) or brachytherapy of the prostate
  • Prior pelvic radiotherapy
  • Contraindications to MRI, including:
    • Electronic devices such as pacemakers, defibrillators, deep brain stimulators, cochlear implants;
    • Metallic foreign body in the eye or aneurysm clips in the brain;
    • Severe claustrophobia

Other illness

  • History of Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, or ataxia telangiectasia

Other

  • Patients with neuroendocrine or small cell carcinoma of the prostate
  • Patients with any evidence of distant metastases. Note, evidence of lymphadenopathy below the level of the renal arteries can be deemed loco regional per the discretion of the investigator

Who the study is looking for

  • Histologically confirmed, clinical localized adenocarcinoma of the prostate
  • No evidence of disease beyond the prostate and/or seminal vesicles (i.e., no suspicious pelvic lymph nodes or presence of metastatic disease outside the pelvis)
  • Staging workup as recommended by the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) on the basis of risk grouping:
    • Low risk: No staging workup required
    • Favorable intermediate-risk: CT abdomen/pelvis if Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSKCC) nomogram predicts \>10% probability of lymph node involvement
    • Unfavorable intermediate-risk: technetium bone scan, CT abdomen/pelvis if MSKCC nomogram predicts \>10% probability of lymph node involvement
    • High-risk: technetium bone scan, CT abdomen/pelvis if MSKCC nomogram predicts \>10% probability of lymph node involvement
    • Advanced imaging studies (i.e. prostate-specific membrane antigen positron emission tomography \[PSMA PET\] and axumin scan) can supplant a bone scan if performed first
  • Ability to understand, and willingness to sign, the written informed consent

Age in the registry: 18 years to - · Sex: Male · Does not accept healthy volunteers
