About this study

This is an interventional, single-centre, single-arm, non-randomized, prospective, feasibility trial investigating salvage MR-guided High-Dose-Rate brachytherapy for prostate bed recurrence after postoperative radiotherapy.

Read the detailed description

Patients who received previous adjuvant or salvage radiotherapy to the prostate bed >

Isolated prostate bed recurrence based on PSMA PET, biopsy-proven, and MR visible >

Baseline: QoLs questionnaires, PSA, pelvic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan for RT planning >

Two fractions of 13 Gy each delivered over 7-21 days. GTV(HDR) delineation (based on MRI-guided and PSMA PET, biopsy data as applicable) >

Follow-Up after treatment 60 months: PSA, CTCAE v5.0, MRI pelvis +/- PSMA-PET scan (optional at 24 months)

Being tested
High Dose Rate Brachytherapy

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

What is being measured

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

  1. Dosimetry Parameters

    As this is a safety and feasibility study, the PTV coverage could be compromised to meet the OAR constraints

    Measured: 5 Years

  2. Acute toxicity assessed by CTCAE V5.0 (Grade ≥3)

    Determine the number of patients with late genitourinary, gastrointestinal and/or sexual toxicities as a result of salvage HDR Brachytherapy treatment at a grade ≥3

    Measured: 5 Years

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Biochemical Control assessed by PSA

    Determine the number of patients demonstrating biochemical control of PSA following salvage HDR Brachytherapy treatment.

    Measured: 5 Years

  2. Local Disease Control

    Assessed by MRI/PSMA-PET imaging at 2 years

    Measured: 2 Years

  3. Changes in Quality of Life

    Assessed with EPIC Quality of Life scores yearly for 5 years.

    Measured: 5 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing High Dose Rate Brachytherapy in people with Prostate Cancer Recurrent and Prostate Cancer, run by University Health Network, Toronto at 1 site in Canada.

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

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 6 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 20 Oct 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Canada. 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.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Contact Peter Chung, MD (416-946-4501 ext. 3374, peter.chung@uhn.ca), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Dosimetry Parameters (time frame: 5 Years). The study lists 2 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 20 Oct 2026.
