- Conditions
- Oligometastatic Prostate Cancer
- Registration Number
- NCT06060652
- Lead Sponsor
- Centro di Riferimento Oncologico - Aviano
- Brief Summary
Currently, despite the advent of next-generation imaging has improved the detection of Oligometastatic prostate cancer (OMPC), prognostic biomarkers able to stratify patients and monitor treatment response are lacking and urgently needed. Mounting evidence suggests that molecular profiling of the disease and host immune activity evaluation can reveal OMPC heterogeneity and address the above unmet clinical need.
This study aims at combining the analysis of several biomarkers to improve the prognostic stratification of OMPC patients
- Detailed Description
Currently, despite the advent of next-generation imaging has improved the detection of Oligometastatic prostate cancer (OMPC), prognostic biomarkers able to stratify patients and monitor treatment response are lacking and urgently needed. Mounting evidence suggests that molecular profiling of the disease and host immune activity evaluation can reveal OMPC heterogeneity and address the above unmet clinical need.
Liquid biopsy, defined as the sampling and analysis of tumor-derived analytes \[i.e.: circulating tumor cells (CTCs), or circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA)\] from blood, represents a powerful tool to assess in real-time the evolving landscape of cancer, identify prognostic and predictive biomarkers and detect resistance to therapies in several cancers, including Prostate Cancer (PC).
Additionally, the same blood sample allows the profiling of tumor-associated components, such as circulating immune cells, which may give clues at the systemic level about the dynamic and complex host-tumor interaction. It is non-invasive, easily repeatable, and cost-effective. In this regard, preliminary results derived from clinical studies indicate that the analysis of tumor material circulating in peripheral blood, combined with the study of the host immune response might be pivotal. This study aims at combining the analysis of several biomarkers, associated with both tumor (CTC and cfDNA) and host (TCR), with a micro-invasive approach, such as liquid biopsy, to improve the prognostic stratification of OMPC patients compared to conventional laboratory test (PSA) and imaging exams (Choline- or PSMA-PET imaging).

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Validation of the prognostic significance of CTCs in a prospective cohort of OMPC patients undergoing SBRT up to 3 years To verify if a cut-off value of ≥5 CTC/7.5 mL of blood is prognostic of worst outcome in terms of distant progression-free survival (DPFS). Prognostic value will be measured as hazard ratio and relative 95% confidence intervals. DPFS will be defined as the time between the first day of SBRT and the detection at restaging imaging of clinical disease outside the treatment field
