A Phase II Trial of CyberKnife Stereotactic Radiosurgery to Prostate Tumors
- Conditions
- Prostate CancerProstate NeoplasmCancer of the Prostate
- Interventions
- Radiation: CyberKnife Radiosurgery
- Registration Number
- NCT02225262
- Lead Sponsor
- Community Cancer Center, Normal, Illinois
- Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to determine the effects of CyberKnife radiosurgery in patients with early stage prostate cancer.
The investigators hypothesize that hypofractionated stereotactic radiotherapy via the CyberKnife® can deliver tumor ablating doses of radiation to prostate tumors safely and effectively while sparing the adjacent tissues (rectum, bladder, ureters, urethra, penile bulb, and bowel) from receiving damaging doses of radiation.
- Detailed Description
The CyberKnife system is a type of radiation machine that uses a special system to precisely focus large doses of x-rays (radiation) on the tumor. The device is designed to concentrate large doses of radiation onto the tumor so that injury from radiation to the nearby normal tissue will be minimal.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Local control rate 5-10 years * To assess the effects of hypofractionated stereotactic radiosurgery on the long-term local tumor control of prostate cancer (through documentation of the rate of biochemical Disease-Free Survival \[bDFS\], Phoenix and ASTRO definitions, at 5 and 10 years).
* To document the rates of acute and late grade 3-5 gastrointestinal and genitourinary toxicity observed during the years following CyberKnife SRS for prostate cancer.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Overall survival 5-10 years To measure the following in the study population: rates of local failure, distant failure, disease-free survival, disease-specific survival; quality of life (QOL) in generic and organ-specific domains.
