简要总结

RATIONALE: High-intensity focused ultrasound energy may be able to kill tumor cells by heating them without affecting normal tissue.

PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well high-intensity focused ultrasound ablation therapy works in treating patients with localized prostate cancer.

详细描述

OBJECTIVES:

Primary

  • To determine patient acceptability, feasibility, and side-effect profile by evaluating records of adverse events.
  • To determine patient acceptability, feasibility, and side-effect profile by evaluating urinary symptoms and erectile function before study stage 1 (verification), before study stage 2 (treatment), and at each follow-up visit.

Secondary

  • To determine the effectiveness of therapy by post-treatment transrectal ultrasound-guided biopsies at 6 months and if there is evidence of biochemical failure.
  • To determine the effectiveness of therapy by post-treatment MRI to evaluate area of necrosis and presence of any residual tissue.
  • To determine the effectiveness of therapy by measurement of prostate-specific antigen (PSA) at each follow-up visit and measurement of time to PSA nadir.
  • To determine the effectiveness of therapy by recording the need for secondary or adjuvant treatment following therapy.

入选标准

  • DISEASE CHARACTERISTICS:
  • Histologically confirmed adenocarcinoma of the prostate, meeting the following criteria:
  • Gleason score ≤ 7 (patterns 3+4 or 4+3 or less are acceptable)
  • Cancer prostate-confined only
  • Cancer confined to one lobe as defined by transrectal ultrasound (TRUS) biopsy
  • Serum prostate-specific antigen (PSA) ≤ 15 ng/mL
  • Prostate volume ≤ 40 cc OR AP length of prostate < 4 cm
  • Unilateral prostate adenocarcinoma must be verified in stage 1 of this trial unless the patient has had multi-sequence MRI and transperineal template biopsies outside of this trial in similar procedure protocols to this trial
  • No evidence of metastatic disease
  • No intraprostatic calcifications ≥ 10 mm in size in cancer-positive side of prostate
  • PATIENT CHARACTERISTICS:
  • Life expectancy ≥ 5 years
  • No latex allergies
  • No American Society of Anesthesiology surgical risk score III or IV
  • No contraindications to MRI scanning (e.g., severe claustrophobia, permanent cardiac pacemaker, or metallic implant likely to contribute significant artefact to images)
  • Must be fit for general anesthesia or regional anesthesia as assessed by the consultant anesthetist
  • PRIOR CONCURRENT THERAPY:
  • More than 6 months since prior androgen suppression therapy
  • No prior radiotherapy for prostate cancer
  • No prior chemotherapy for prostate cancer
  • No prior significant rectal surgery preventing insertion of transrectal probe
  • No prior transurethral resection of the prostate or laser prostatectomy
  • No prior high-intensity focused ultrasound, cryosurgery, thermal, or microwave therapy to the prostate
