Endocrine Therapy With or Without Cryoablation for Stage IV Prostate Cancer

Not Applicable
Conditions
Stage IV Prostate Cancer
Interventions
Procedure: cryoablation
Drug: luteinizing-hormone releasing-hormone (LHRH) agonist
Registration Number
NCT02615223
Lead Sponsor
Tianjin Medical University Cancer Institute and Hospital
Brief Summary

This trial is going to evaluate tumor control and quality of life in patients with prostate cancer treated with endocrine therapy with or without cryoablation.

Detailed Description

OBJECTIVES:

* To determine the tumor control in patients with prostate cancer treated with radiotherapy or cryoablation

* To determine the quality of life of these patients. OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study. Patients are stratified according to Gleason score (≥ 8 vs 7 vs ≤ 6), persistent prostatic specific antigen (PSA) at allocation (\> 0.5 ng/mL vs ≤ 0.5 ng/mL), participating center. Patient are allocated to two treatment arms.
