Single Arm Trial of Preoperative Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy (SBRT) for T3a or Gleason Grade Group 4 Prostate Cancer

Not Applicable

Conditions
Prostate Cancer
Interventions
Device: Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy (SBRT)
Registration Number
NCT03748719
Lead Sponsor
H. Lee Moffitt Cancer Center and Research Institute
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.

Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy, followed by ProstatectomyStereotactic 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
NameTimeMethod
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 eventsUp to 12 months

Number of symptomatic anastomotic events related to pre-operative SBRT.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Mean Catheterization TimeUp to 4 weeks post surgery

Average time of catheterization following prostatectomy

Mean Hospital StayUp to 2 week post surgery

Average time of hospitalization after prostatectomy

Quality of Life assessmentBaseline, 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.
