简要总结
This study will test whether it is safe and effective to use stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT)-a short, targeted form of radiation-together with a microultrasound (microUS)-guided radiation boost to the cancerous spots inside the prostate. Researchers will compare treatment plans that use microUS to plans created using the current standard method, which relies on MRI images, to determine whether microUS can successfully guide targeted radiation.
详细描述
Prostate cancer is one of the most common cancers in men, and many patients receive a treatment called external beam radiation therapy. This treatment usually works well, but in some men the cancer can return. Giving a higher dose of radiation to the whole prostate could lower this risk, but doing so can also cause more side effects to the bladder and bowel. Researchers have learned that cancer often comes back in specific spots inside the prostate called dominant intraprostatic lesions (DILs). If doctors can clearly see these areas, they may be able to safely give extra radiation just to those spots. A new type of imaging, called microultrasound (microUS), creates very detailed pictures of the prostate and may help doctors more accurately find these cancer areas.
This study will test whether it is safe and effective to use stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT)-a short, targeted form of radiation-together with a microUS-guided radiation boost to the cancerous spots inside the prostate. Researchers will compare treatment plans that use microUS to plans created using the current standard method, which relies on MRI images. By learning whether microUS can successfully guide targeted radiation, this research may help make advanced and more personalized prostate cancer treatment available to more patients.

结局指标
主要结局
Acute GU Toxicity Measured by Patient-Reported Outcomes in the Expanded Prostate Cancer Index (EPIC-26)
