- Registration Number
- NCT05568537
- Lead Sponsor
- William Beaumont Hospitals
- Brief Summary
This is a voluntary research study to find out how using technology including advanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and prostate-specific membrane antigen - positron emission tomography (PSMA-PET) scan imaging, in addition to combined prostate treatment using radiation therapy, brachytherapy (internal radiation treatment using small radioactive seeds placed inside the body) and androgen deprivation therapy (drug therapy to suppress hormones) can help doctors see, track and predict tumor response to treatment for prostate cancer patients. Participation in this study will consist of radiation planning and simulation, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and positron emission tomography and computed tomography scan (PET/CT). One MRI and PSMA PET/CT scan will be done prior to the start of first external beam radiation therapy (EBRT) fraction. At mid-treatment prior to the second brachytherapy fraction, an MRI and PSMA PET/CT will be done. A third scan will be performed after 75% testosterone recovery or 12 months post androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) \[whichever comes first\].
- Detailed Description
The goal of the study is to better understand how an individual tumor responds to radiation therapy and determine if advanced imaging can be used for prognostic purposes, especially to predict areas of local resistance and failure. The study population are patients with high risk prostate malignancy treated with a combination of external beam radiation therapy (EBRT)/brachytherapy (BT) and androgen deprivation therapy (ADT). Patients enrolled in this trial will undergo a pre-treatment MRI and PSMA PET/CT prior to the initiation of ADT and the first EBRT fraction, a mid-treatment MRI and PSMA PET/CT prior to second brachytherapy fraction, and a third MRI and PSMA PET/CT will be performed after 75% testosterone recovery or 12 months post-ADT (whichever comes first). The pre-treatment MRI and PSMA PET/CT is part of standard of care for prostate cancer workup, however all additional MRI and PSMA PET/CT mid-treatment or after treatment completion are additional research scans.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Difference from baseline (pre-treatment) to end of treatment scans for each patient in molecular/metabolic MRI to second brachytherapy treatment From start of treatment to 1 year after completion of treatment or recovery of 75% baseline testosterone after androgen depletion therapy. Difference in the MRI imaging parameter Amide Proton Transfer (APT) weighted relative signal intensity between pretreatment scan and end-of-treatment scan in preselected regions of interest (ROIs) in both high-dose and low-dose regions will be analyzed in each image set per patient.
Difference from baseline (pre-treatment) to mid-treatment scans for each patient in PSMA PET/CT From start of treatment to before brachytherapy dose number 2, approximately day 15 of treatment Difference in tumor voxel standard uptake value (SUV) between pretreatment scan and mid-treatment scan in preselected regions of interest (ROIs) in both high-dose and low-dose regions will be analyzed in each image set per patient.
