Can less radiation to healthy prostate cut side effects?

NCT ID NCT07391982

What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
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 Results may not be published yet.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
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.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This study tests whether giving a lower radiation dose to healthy parts of the prostate, while keeping a high dose to visible tumors, can reduce bowel and urinary side effects in men with low or intermediate-risk prostate cancer. Participants will receive two sessions of MRI-guided radiotherapy using an MR-Linac. The trial compares a uniform high dose to the whole prostate against a tailored approach that spares healthy tissue.

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 radiotherapy (MR-Linac)
What this could lead to
If successful, this approach could reduce bowel and urinary side effects from prostate radiotherapy while still controlling cancer.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-phase study with only 54 participants, so results may not apply to all patients. Lowering the dose could also increase the risk of cancer recurrence.

Study facts

What this study's own registry entry says, in plain language.

Phase

Not a phased trial

Phase numbers describe drug development. The registry uses this when they do not apply, as it does for trials of devices, procedures or behaviour changes, and for observational studies.

Participants

About 54 people

The number the study aims to enrol. It can still change while the study runs.

Lead sponsor

Other sponsor

The registry's catch-all category, for sponsors it does not file as a company, a government agency, or a research network.

Show the full entry requirements

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: 1. Men aged ≥18 years 2. Histological confirmation of prostate adenocarcinoma requiring radical radiotherapy 3. Gleason score 3+3, 3+4 or 4+3 (ISUP Grade groups (GG) 1, 2 or 3) 4. MRI-visible tumour(s) of PIRADS v2 grade 3 or higher and able to be delineated on T2 and diffusion-weighted imaging +/- dynamic contrast-enhanced imaging. Tumour nodule visible on MRI should be considered able to be boosted by treating clinician and \<2.5cm in maximal dimension. MRI must be performed within 3 months of trial entry 5. The MRI-defined lesion must be confirmed as malignant on biopsies (any Gleason grade is sufficient as long as Gleason score is reported). 6. MRI stages mT1 and T2 or mT3a with ≤ 1mm tumour outside gland AND otherwise favourable intermediate risk characteristics (Gleason 3+3, 3+4)(as staged by AJCC TNM 2018) 7. PSA \<20 ng/ml prior to starting androgen deprivation therapy (ADT). 8. WHO Performance status 0-2 9. Ability of the participant to understand and the willingness to sign a written informed consent (IC) form. 10. Ability/willingness to comply with the patient reported outcome questionnaires schedule throughout the study. Exclusion Criteria: 1. Contraindications to MRI (e.g. pacemaker, potentially mobile metal implant, claustrophobia) 2. IPSS Score \> 19 3. High grade disease (GG3) occult to MRI-defined lesion. As a guide, any pathology for which you would consider surveillance is allowed outside of the MRI-defined area. 4. Prostate volume \>90cc 5. Comorbidities which predispose to significant toxicity (e.g. inflammatory bowel disease) or preclude long term follow up 6. Hip replacement, or other pelvic metalwork which causes artefact on diffusion-weighted imaging 7. Previous pelvic radiotherapy 8. Patients needing \>6 months of ADT due to disease parameters. 9. Previous invasive malignancy within the last 2 years excluding basal or squamous cell carcinomas of the skin, low risk non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (assuming cystoscopic follow up now negative) or small renal masses on surveillance.
