简要总结
A prospective, phase II study applying Artificial Intelligence aiming at individualization of Radiotherapy and Androgen Deprivation Therapy duration for patients with Prostate Cancer. All patients will be treated using (i) an increased dose to the prostate (HDR brachytherapy), (ii) twelve months of ADT and (iii) extremely hypofractionated RT to the prostate (5 fractions). This way, patients will receive a prostate-only dose escalation and benefit from shortening of the ADT compared with current guideline recommendations.
详细描述
Prostate cancer (PCa) is the most frequent diagnosed malignancy in male patients in Europe and radiation therapy (RT) is a main treatment option. For primary high-risk localized PCa patients, NCCNv4.2022 guidelines recommend normo- or hypofractionated RT to the prostate and systemic treatment in terms of ADT. The benefit of two different ways to escalate RT is controversially discussed: (i) an RT dose escalation using brachytherapy (1) or focal dose escalated RT (2) or (ii) an elective RT of the pelvic lymph nodes (3). In parallel, recent studies suggest a reduction in treatment fractions in terms of ultra-hypofractionated RT(4).
The aim of this prospective, single-arm phase II study is the individualization of both RT and ADT duration for patients with NCCN high-risk localized PCa based on MMAI. All patients will receive (i) a dose escalation to the prostate via HDR brachytherapy (boost), (ii) twelve months of ADT and (iii) extremely hypofractionated RT to the prostate (5 fractions). This way, patients in the HypoPro trial will receive a prostate-only dose escalation and benefit from shortening of the ADT compared with current guideline recommendations.
For the HypoPro patients, we expect no significant differences in DFS rates compared to the FLAME trial (2) which one arm treated the patients with moderately-hypofractionated RT to the prostate plus dose escalation to the intraprostatic tumor plus 18-24 months of ADT. Secondary endpoints like metastatic free survival, prostate cancer survival and overall survival will depict the oncologic efficacy in this patient cohort. Thus, the results of this study might be used as the fundament for a randomized-controlled trial comparing this dose escalated radiotherapy plus shortened ADT duration with the standard of care (no dose escalated RT, ADT for 1-3 years) in this highly selected treatment group: NCCN high-risk, PSMA PET cN0/cM0 and MMAI low/intermediate-risk. Considering the epidemiological importance of the PCa, these results could have a significant socio-economic impact. In parallel a translational research program will address the identification of novel biomarkers to predict the treatment outcome.
