Brief summary
Hypofractionated radiosurgery with 5 fractions is considered standard of care for localized prostate cancer. The investigators initiated this multicenter phase II prospective trial to analyse feasibility (toxicity) of hypofractionated radiosurgery with 3 fractions in patients with localised prostate cancer under the hypothesis that the ratio of patients with late GU and GI toxicity ≥ grade 2 after 1 year amounts to 8.4% and 1.3% and is significant lower than 16.4% and 5.7% currently.
Detailed description
Experimental radiosurgery of the prostate with 3 fractions each with 9.5 -10.5 Gy (total application rate of 28.5-31.5 Gy) based on risk grading. Planned visits are: Baseline, visits at every radiation day and four follow ups (4-6 weeks, 3 months, 6 months and one year after last day of radiation).
Interventions
Image-guided stereotactic Linac based RT preferable with "dedicated radiosurgery system" such as CyberKnife

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| GU and GI Toxicity | 12-15 months after radiotherapy | Late toxicity measured with Radiation Therapy Oncology Group-(RTOG)-Score |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Acute toxicity | Through study completion | Acute toxicity analysed by Adverse Event (AE)- and Serious Adverse Event (SAE)-reports |
| PSA | At the time of inclusion and 1, 3, 6-9 and 12-15 months after radiotherapy | Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) |
| IPSS | Screening and 3, 6-9 and 12-15 months after radiotherapy | International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) on a scale 0-35 with lower being better |
| Quality of Life Score | At the time of inclusion and 12-15 months after radiotherapy | EORTC Quality of Life Questionnaire (QLQ) C30 on a scale 0-100 with higher being better |
| Decision Regret Score | At the time of inclusion and 12-15 months after radiotherapy | Decision Regret Score on a scale 0-100 with lower being lower regret |
