NCT ID NCT05676463

What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early This study
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

Summary

This phase 2 trial tested whether MRI-guided radiation therapy, given in fewer but higher doses, could safely treat high-risk prostate cancer while reducing side effects. The study enrolled 6 men with localized, high-risk prostate cancer who also received standard hormone therapy. The goal was to see if this approach could shorten overall treatment time compared to standard radiation.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
MRI-guided radiation therapy and antiandrogen therapy
What this could lead to
If successful, this approach could offer a shorter, more precise radiation treatment for high-risk prostate cancer with fewer side effects.
What could go wrong
This was a small, terminated phase 2 trial with only 6 participants, so results are very preliminary and may not apply to larger groups. The treatment still requires ongoing hormone therapy.

Inclusion Criteria: * Age: above 18 years * Participants must be histologically proven, adenocarcinoma prostate * Localized to the prostate without positive pelvic lymph node involvement * No distant metastatic disease assessed by pretreatment PSMA PET or bone scan and CT scan * High risk prostate cancer as defined by National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN): Gleason score of 8- 10, clinical stage T3a or higher, or prostate specific antigen (PSA) \> 20 ng/mL * Ability to receive long term hormone therapy * Karnofsky performance score (KPS) \> 70 * No prior history of therapeutic irradiation to pelvis * Patient willing and reliable for follow-up and quality of life (QOL) * English speaking/reading Exclusion Criteria: * Evidence of distant or pelvic metastasis at any time since presentation * Life expectancy \< 2 years * Previous radiation therapy (RT) to prostate or prostatectomy * A previous trans-urethral resection of the prostate (TURP) * Severe urinary symptoms or with severe International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) score despite being on hormonal therapy for 6 months which in the opinion of the physician precludes RT * Patients with known obstructive symptoms with stricture * Any contraindication to radiotherapy such as inflammatory bowel disease
