Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The incidence of gastrointestinal and/or genitourinary toxicity, which will be determined by the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 4.0. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| - QoL assessment by questionnaires (RAND-36, EORTC QLQ-PR-25, EORTC QLQ-C30, IPSS, IIEF-5); - PSA-monitoring for evaluation of biochemical disease free survival; - Dose restrictions analysis by relating dosage to toxicity to prevent/reduce toxicity; - Evaluation of catheter shifts during focal salvage HDR-BT; - Prediction-modeling for the determination of predictive factors for tumor control, to further optimize patient selection. | — |
