Two-fraction Proton Therapy With MRI Guidance for Prostate Cancer: A Phase II Trial

2-fraction Stereotactic Body Proton Therapy (SBPT) With Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) Guidance in Localized Prostate Cancer: A Single-arm Phase II Non-randomized Trial

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 16 Mar 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

This study is testing a shorter treatment method for prostate cancer using proton therapy (PT), which is very precise and may cause fewer side effects compared to traditional radiation. However, it is expensive and not easily accessible for many patients. To make it more affordable and accessible, this study is testing whether 2 fractions of stereotactic body proton therapy (SBPT) can be as safe and effective as the standard 5 sessions.

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 pelvic radiotherapy, chemotherapy, radical prostatectomy, cryosurgery, or focal therapy (e.g. high-intensity focused ultrasound \[HIFU\]) for prostate cancer
  • Transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) \< 8 weeks prior to SBPT
  • Previous androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) lasting more than 6 months

Other illness

  • History of inflammatory bowel disease or other cancers (except prostate cancer)
  • History of bladder neck or urethral stricture

Other

  • Prostate volume \> 100cc on MRI
  • Unilateral or bilateral hip replacements
  • Nodal or distant metastases, as indicated by computed tomography (CT), MRI, or prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) positron emission tomography (PET) scans

Who the study is looking for

  • Men aged \< 18 years with histologically confirmed low- or intermediate-risk prostate cancer per NCCN guidelines
  • Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status \<2
  • Ability to undergo magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) simulation scans without absolute contraindications, such as cardiac implantable electronic devices
  • Ability to complete the Expanded Prostate Cancer Index Composite (EPIC) questionnaire
