Brief summary

Background: Prostate cancer is the second leading cause of cancer death in United States (U.S.) men. Radiation is an effective treatment for most patients with localized prostate cancer, but sometimes the tumor returns. Researchers want to see if a highly focused type of radiation can help. It is given in only 5 treatments. It is called stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT). Objective: To study the maximum tolerated dose and side effects of stereotactic body radiation therapy in people with a local recurrence of prostate cancer after radiation. Eligibility: Men at least 18 years old who have recurrent prostate cancer after radiation therapy and no evidence of distant metastatic disease. Design: Participants will be screened with blood tests, physical exam, and medical history. They may also have: Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan of the prostate. Positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) scan. Participants will get an injection of 2-(3-{1-carboxy-5-\[(6-18F-fluoro-pyridine-3-carbonyl)-amino\]-pentyl}-ureido)-pentanedioic acid (18F-DCFPyL) for the PET scan. They will lie very still on their back on the scanner table. Small samples of prostate tumor tissue will be taken by a needle through the skin or rectum to see if the cancer is in the prostate. Small metal seeds will be placed into the prostate at the same time to help guide the radiation. About 2 weeks later, participants will have a radiation treatment planning CT scan. Participants will answer questions about their urine function, bowel function, erectile function, and mood. Participants will receive SBRT. They will have 5 radiation treatments over 2 weeks. Participants will have follow-up visits. They will have a physical exam, blood tests, and questionnaires. Six months after ending SBRT, the 18F-DCFPyL PET/CT will be repeated. Participants will continue to have routine visits until two years after treatment is completed....

Detailed description

Background: * Prostate cancer that recurs after prior radiation treatment can be challenging to cure due to the side effects of available treatments such as surgery and cryoablation. * Re-irradiation with brachytherapy or stereotactic approaches has shown excellent rates of prostate cancer disease control with tolerable side effects. * Using image guidance to allow highly conformal focal re-irradiation may potentially increase the efficacy of re-irradiation. Objectives: -Define the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of image guided, focally dose escalated prostate radiation with stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) in patients with a local recurrence of prostate cancer after prior radiotherapy. Eligibility: * Histological confirmation of recurrent prostate cancer after prior irradiation (external beam or brachytherapy) * No evidence of distant metastases of prostate cancer * No prior prostatectomy * Subject is greater than or equal to18 years old * Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status less than or equal to 2 (Karnofsky greater than or equal to 60%). Design: * This is a Phase I trial of focal dose escalation with SBRT using image and pathologic guidance. * Areas in the prostate shown to have tumor on biopsy or with advanced imaging studies will be treated with highly conformal SBRT over a period of two to three weeks. Treatment will be guided and gated by fiducials implanted in the prostate. * Patients will be treated to escalating doses based on tolerability of the treatment. * Quality of life and functional outcomes such as urine, bowel, and erectile function will be assessed with questionnaires. * Up to 52 patients will be enrolled.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD)3 weeks post-treatmentThe MTD of image-guided, focally dose escalated prostate stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) in participants with a local recurrence of prostate cancer after prior radiotherapy. The MTD is the dose level at which no more than 1 of up to 6 participants experience dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) during treatment and up to 3 weeks following completion of treatment, and the dose below that at which at least 2 (of .6) participants have DLT as a result of treatment. A DLT is a Grade 3 rectal, small bowel, or urinary toxicity that does not resolve to Grade 2 or less within 4 days, other Grade 3 in-field toxicities attributable to Stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) that do not resolve to a Grade 2 or less within 4 days, and delays of more than one week in completing radiation treatment due to toxicity.

Lesions that are not detected on DCF-PyL that are biopsy confirmed to have no tumor are considered true negatives. Lesions that are detected on DCF-PyL and are biopsy negative are considered false positives.
Changes of Sexual Health Inventory for Men (SHIM) Quality of Life (QOL) Scores During and After TreatmentBaseline compared to 24 months after treatmentChanges of QOL scores during and after treatment of focally dose escalated prostate stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) on participant reported outcomes (Sexual Health Inventory for Men (SHIM), in participants previously treated with radiotherapy. The QOL scores will be summarized at baseline and for each visit. Linear mixed effects model will be used to model quality of life scores at baseline and during and after treatment in which random intercept and random slope are used to account for participant-specific trajectory of QOL scores. The SHIM is a 5-question quiz used to identify erectile dysfunction and assess its severity. The composite score is generated by adding the score for each question. The total score can range from 1-25. Higer values represent better erectile function.
Changes of Expanded Prostate Cancer Index Composite (EPIC-26) Quality of Life (QOL) Scores During and After TreatmentBaseline compared to 24 months after treatmentChanges of QOL scores during and after treatment on participant reported outcomes, EPIC-26 in participants previously treated with radiotherapy. The QOL scores will be summarized at baseline and for each visit. Linear mixed effects model will be used to model QOL scores at baseline and during and after treatment in which random intercept and random slope are used to account for participant-specific trajectory of QOL scores. The EPIC-26 is a shortened, validated questionnaire used to assess health related QOL in individuals with prostate cancer. The EPIC-26 measures sexual function, bowel function, hormone therapy side effects, urinary incontinence, and urinary irritative symptoms. The survey has 26 individual items that have 4 to 5 response options that reflect a range of function from poor to excellent. The EPIC-26 uses a Likert scale for each item, and scores are transformed to a 0-100 scale, with higher scores indicating better Health-Related Quality of Life.
