Single Arm Trial of Preoperative Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy (SBRT) for T3a or Gleason Grade Group 4 Prostate Cancer
- Conditions
- Prostate Cancer
- Interventions
- Device: Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy (SBRT)
- Registration Number
- NCT03748719
- Brief Summary
This study involves Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy (SBRT) followed by prostatectomy (removal of the prostate). SBRT is a relatively new radiation technique in which a few doses of radiation are delivered to small, well-defined tumors. It has been used effectively in other cancers like lung and liver. The radiation will be given for only 5 days.
The purpose of this study is to compare the effects, good and/or bad, of different doses of SBRT given before prostatectomy.

Group Intervention Description Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy, followed by Prostatectomy Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy (SBRT) Patients will receive 6 Gy per day of Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy (SBRT) per day for 5 days, followed by prostatectomy in 3 weeks.
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Measure of PSA (Prostate Specific Antigen) Up to 12 months Measure of PSA through treatment. PSA is expected to be undetectable (\<0.2 mg/ml) after prostatectomy and radiation therapy.
Number of symptomatic adverse anastomotic events Up to 12 months Number of symptomatic anastomotic events related to pre-operative SBRT.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Mean Catheterization Time Up to 4 weeks post surgery Average time of catheterization following prostatectomy
Mean Hospital Stay Up to 2 week post surgery Average time of hospitalization after prostatectomy
Quality of Life assessment Baseline, at 2 weeks, 4 weeks, 2 months and every 3 months up to 12 months post surgery Quality of Life will be assessed using 2 questionnaires: International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) and Sexual Health Inventory for Men (SHIM). The IPSS is an eight question questionnaire of symptoms ranging from 0 "not at all" to 5 "always". The SHIM is a five question questionnaire ranging from 1 "almost never or never" to 5 "almost always or always" to determine erectile dysfunction.
