About this study

Official title: A Phase I and II Study of Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy (SBRT) for Low and Intermediate Risk Prostate Cancer (SBRT Prostate)

RATIONALE: Stereotactic body radiation therapy may be able to send x-rays directly to the tumor and cause less damage to normal tissue.

PURPOSE: This phase I/II trial is studying the side effects and best dose of stereotactic body radiation therapy and to see how well it works in treating patients with prostate cancer.

Read the detailed description

OBJECTIVES:

Primary

  • To escalate the dose of stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) to a tumoricidal dose without exceeding the maximum tolerated dose in patients with organ-confined prostate cancer. (Phase I)
  • To determine the late, severe grade 3-5 genitourinary and gastrointestinal toxicity occurring between 270-540 days (i.e., 9-18 months) from the start of the protocol treatment as assessed by CTCAE v3.0. (Phase II)

Secondary

  • To determine the dose-limiting toxicity of SBRT in these patients. (Phase I)
  • To determine the 2-year biochemical (PSA) control (freedom from PSA failure), disease-free and overall survival, local control, freedom from distant metastases, and the incidence of high-grade adverse events of any type in patients treated with this therapy in order to determine if the therapy is promising enough for further clinical investigation. (Phase II)

OUTLINE: This is a multicenter, phase I dose-escalation study followed by a phase II open-label study.

  • Phase I: Patients undergo 5 treatments of stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT).
  • Phase II: Patients undergo SBRT at the maximum tolerated dose as in phase I. After completion of study treatment, patients are followed at 1.5, 3, 6, 9, and 12 months, every 6 months for 5 years, and then once a year for years 5-10.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 97 patients will be accrued for this study.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Number of Participants With Dose Limiting Toxicity (Phase 1 Only)

    Dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) was defined as grade 3 to 5 GI, genito urinary, sexual, or neurologic toxicity attributed to therapy occurring within 90 days of registration using Common Terminology Criteria of Adverse Events(version 3)

    Measured: 90 days after start of treatment

  2. No. of Late Severe GU Toxicity (for Phase 2 Only)

    To determine late severe GU toxicity defined as grade 3-5 occurring between 279-540 days (i.e., 9-18 months) from the start of protocol treatment. Toxicity was defined using the National Cancer Institute Common Toxicity Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) v.3.0. CTCAE uses a range of grades from 1 to 5; 1 - Mild 2 - Moderate 3 - Severe 4 - Life-threatening 5 - Death.

    Measured: 18 months

  3. No. of Late Severe GI Toxicity (for Phase 2 Only)

    To determine late severe GI toxicity defined as grade 3-5 occurring between 279-540 days (i.e., 9-18 months) from the start of protocol treatment. Toxicity was defined using the National Cancer Institute Common Toxicity Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) v.3.0. CTCAE uses a range of grades from 1 to 5; 1 - Mild 2 - Moderate 3 - Severe 4 - Life-threatening 5 - Death.

    Measured: 18 months

Secondary outcomes (8)
  1. GU Toxicity (Only Phase 2)

    To determine acute severe GU toxicity is defined as grade 3-5 occurring prior to 270 days from the start of the protocol treatment. Toxicity was defined using the National Cancer Institute Common Toxicity Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) v.3.0. CTCAE uses a range of grades from 1 to 5; 1 - Mild 2 - Moderate 3 - Severe 4 - Life-threatening 5 - Death.

    Measured: 9 months from start of treatment

  2. GI Toxicity

    To determine acute severe GI toxicity is defined as grade 3-5 occurring prior to 270 days from the start of the protocol treatment. Toxicity was defined using the National Cancer Institute Common Toxicity Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) v.3.0. CTCAE uses a range of grades from 1 to 5; 1 - Mild 2 - Moderate 3 - Severe 4 - Life-threatening 5 - Death.

    Measured: 9 months from start of treatment

  3. Non-GU Toxicity

    To determine non-GU (genitourinary) toxicity is defined as grade 3-5. Toxicity was defined using the National Cancer Institute Common Toxicity Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) v.3.0. CTCAE uses a range of grades from 1 to 5; 1 - Mild 2 - Moderate 3 - Severe 4 - Life-threatening 5 - Death.

    Measured: 60 months

  4. Non-GI Toxicity

    To determine non-GI (gastrointestinal) toxicity is defined as grade 3-5. Toxicity was defined using the National Cancer Institute Common Toxicity Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) v.3.0. CTCAE uses a range of grades from 1 to 5; 1 - Mild 2 - Moderate 3 - Severe 4 - Life-threatening 5 - Death.

    Measured: 60 months

  5. Freedom From Biochemical Failure

    Biochemical failure RTOG (Radiation Therapy Oncology Group)-ASTRO (American Society for Therapeutic Radiology and Oncology) definition (also known as Phoenix definition). Thus, when the PSA rises by more than 2 ng/ml above the lowest level (nadir) achieved after treatment, biochemical failure has occurred and the date of the failure is recorded at the time the nadir plus 2 ng/ml level is reached.

    Measured: 36 months

  6. Overall Survival

    The survival time will be measured from the date of accession to the date of death.

    Measured: 60 months

  7. Disease Specific Survival

    Disease-Specific Survival Disease-specific survival will be measured from the date of study entry to the date of death due to prostate cancer as the percentage of participants who survived the prostrate cancer disease.

    Measured: 60 months

  8. Clinical Progression Including Local/Regional and Distant Relapse

    Clinical progression including local/regional and distant relapse is measured using Kaplan-Meier method

    Measured: 60 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT)- 45 Gy, stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) - 47.5 Gy and stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) - 50 Gy (Phase 1) in people with Prostate Cancer, run by University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center at 5 sites in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 7 Dec 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 5 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this combined phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 24 Mar 2022). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Number of Participants With Dose Limiting Toxicity (Phase 1 Only) (time frame: 90 days after start of treatment). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 7 Dec 2022.
