Cryoablation Therapy or Radiotherapy Therapy for Stage III Prostate Cancer

Not Applicable
Conditions
Stage III Prostate Cancer
Interventions
Procedure: Cryoablation therapy
Radiation: External beam radiation therapy
Drug: luteinizing-hormone releasing-hormone (LHRH) agonist
Registration Number
NCT02605226
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 radiotherapy or 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.

Arm ICryoablation therapyPatients receive oral bicalutamide once daily on days 1-28. Patients also receive luteinizing-hormone releasing-hormone (LHRH) agonist treatment intramuscularly (IM) on day 8. Treatment with LHRH agonist repeats every 12 weeks for 24 weeks. Patients receive cryoablation therapy.
