Brief summary

This pilot clinical trial studies magnetic resonance (MRI)-guided focal stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) in treating patients with low- or intermediate-risk localized prostate cancer. Stereotactic radiosurgery may be able to send x-rays directly to the tumor and cause less damage to normal tissue.

Detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: I. Evaluate the correlation of histopathology findings in comparison to regions of the prostate reported to be suspicious for harboring tumor burden on multiparametric MRI report/s. II. Demonstration of the dosimetric and radiobiological advantages of focal stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) versus whole-gland radiation therapy. III. Evaluation of clinical outcomes in focal SBRT for localized prostate cancer. OUTLINE: Patients undergo 3 fractions of MRI-guided focal SRS every other day for 1 week. Patients undergo additional MRI scans between the 2nd and 3rd fractionated treatments, at 6 months following the end of radiation therapy, and at 12 and 24 months. After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up every 3 months for up to 24 months.

Interventions

RADIATIONstereotactic radiosurgery

Undergo MRI-guided focal SRS

DEVICEmagnetic resonance imaging

Undergo staging MRI with contrast

OTHERquality-of-life assessment

Quality of life scores will be summarized graphically and repeated measures of variance will be conducted to test for changes in scores over time

PROCEDURESerum Prostate Antigen Test

Test of the PSA protein in blood. The test will be run every three months for up to two years during the study.

Exam of rectal health. Performed every three months for up to two years throughout the study.

BEHAVIORALExpanded Prostate Cancer Index Composite

This survey measures a patient's function and bother after prostate cancer treatment. It will be analyzed using ANOVA using data collected every 6 months for up to 2 years of the study.

Inclusion criteria

* Patients must have a histologically confirmed diagnosis of adenocarcinoma of the prostate * Patient must have a history/physical examination with digital rectal examination of the prostate within 90 days prior to screening * Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status must be level 0 or 1 within 60 days prior to registration * Patient must have a histological evaluation of the prostate biopsy with assignment of a Gleason score to the biopsy material; Gleason scores ≤ 7(3+4) * Serum creatinine ≤ 1.5 times upper limit of institutional normal (normal: ≤ 1.17 mL/min/1.73 m\^2) * Clinical stage a ≤ T1-T2a (American Joint Committee on Cancer \[AJCC\] 7th edition) * Prostate specific antigen (PSA) ≤ 10 ng/mL within 90 days prior to registration; PSA should not be obtained within 10 days after prostate biopsy * Subjects must have the ability to understand and the willingness to sign a written informed consent document * Patient willing and able to complete the Expanded Prostate Cancer Index Composite (EPIC) questionnaire (baseline, 6, 12 and 24 months post end of radiation therapy) * Patients must be able to undergo an MRI with contrast * Bone scan completed within 90 days

Exclusion criteria

* Evidence of distant metastases * Regional lymph node involvement * Previous radical surgery (prostatectomy), cryosurgery, or high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) for prostate cancer * Previous pelvic irradiation, prostate brachytherapy, or bilateral orchiectomy * Previous hormonal therapy, such as luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LHRH) agonists (e.g., goserelin, leuprolide) or LHRH antagonists (e.g., degarelix), anti-androgens (e.g., flutamide, bicalutamide), estrogens (e.g., diethylstilbestrol \[DES\]), or surgical castration (orchiectomy) * Use of finasteride within 30 days prior to registration; PSA should not be obtained prior to 30 days after stopping finasteride * Use of dutasteride within 90 days prior to registration; PSA should not be obtained prior to 90 days after stopping dutasteride * Previous or concurrent cytotoxic chemotherapy for prostate cancer * Severe, active co-morbidity, defined as follows: * Unstable angina and/or congestive heart failure requiring hospitalization within the last 6 months * Transmural myocardial infarction within the last 6 months * Acute bacterial or fungal infection requiring intravenous antibiotics at the time of registration * Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease exacerbation or other respiratory illness requiring hospitalization or precluding study therapy at the time of registration * Hepatic insufficiency resulting in clinical jaundice and/or coagulation defects; note, however, that laboratory tests for liver function and coagulation parameters are not required for entry into this protocol; (patients on Coumadin or other blood thinning agents are eligible for this study) * Acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) based upon current Centers for Disease and Control (CDC) definition; note, however, that human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) testing is not required for entry into this protocol; protocol-specific requirements may also exclude immuno-compromised patients * Patients unable to undergo an MRI with contrast
