Image-guided, Tumor-focused Radiotherapy Treatment in Intermediate and High-risk Prostate Cancer

RAdiation Dose TAiloRing Guided by Enhanced Targeting

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 17 Feb 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

This is a phase II non-blinded randomized controlled trial of image-guided, tumor-focused radiotherapy in patients with intermediate- or high-risk prostate cancer planning to undergo definitive radiotherapy with or without systemic therapy. The image-guided, tumor-focused radiotherapy will be compared to standard, whole-prostate treatment. The investigators hypothesize that tumor-focused radiotherapy reduces the radiation dose to organs close to the prostate, possibly leading to decreased acute toxicity to the genitourinary and gastrointestinal organs. The investigators will measure acute and late genitourinary and gastrointestinal toxicity due to radiation and regardless of cause. The investigators will also measure overall survival, metastasis-free survival, and quality of life, as well as biomarkers that may help predict, in the future, who may have a worse toxicity following radiation therapy.

Who cannot take part

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

Prior treatment

  • Bilateral hip implants
  • Prior prostatectomy
  • Prior prostate cancer treatment (for example, focal therapy). Note that participants who started hormone therapy within the 90 days prior to randomization are eligible, as long as study-compatible imaging was performed within the 4 months prior to starting the hormone therapy.
  • Prior radiation therapy to an area requiring treatment in the present study

Who the study is looking for

  • Provision of signed and dated informed consent form
  • Stated willingness to comply with all study procedures and availability for the duration of the study
  • At least 18 years old
  • Histologic confirmation of prostate adenocarcinoma with plan for curative-intent radiation therapy
  • Lesion visible on prostate Magnetic Resonance Imaging and/or Prostate-Specific Membrane Antigen Positron Emission Tomography-Computed Tomography (according to the treating physician) with concordant pathology from biopsy needle locations.
  • For participants able to cause a pregnancy: use of condoms or other methods to ensure effective contraception with partner during the radiation therapy treatment and for at least 6 months afterward.
