Tokyo, April 23 -- UMIN Clinical Trials Registry (UMIN-CTR) received information related to the study (UMIN000061315) titled 'A single-arm clinical trial on ultra-hypofractionated radiotherapy using an MR linear accelerator for prostate cancer with preserved sexual function (SMART pro II study)' on April 23.
Study Type:
Interventional
Study Design:
Basic Design - Single arm
Randomization - Non-randomized
Blinding - Open -no one is blinded
Control - Historical
Primary Sponsor:
Institute - Tohoku University
Condition:
Condition - prostate cancer
Classification by malignancy - Malignancy
Genomic information - NO
Objective:
Narrative objectives1 - This study will investigate the effectiveness of radiotherapy using an MR linear accelerator to reduce the neurovascular bundle (NVB) dose in prostate cancer patients classified as very low to favorable intermediate risk according to the NCCN risk classification, who wish to preserve sexual function. The primary endpoint will be sexual function at 24 months after the start of treatment, measured by the EPIC (9-item sexual function score).
Basic objectives2 - Safety
Intervention:
Interventions/Control_1 - The dose will be 13 Gy per session, for a total of two sessions, resulting in a total dose of 26 Gy. The dose prescription will be set so that 95% of the CTV (urethra + 1 mm) is irradiated at a dose of 26 Gy/2 Fr (D95 prescription). However, the following dose constraints must be observed.
NVB (side that can be preserved): D0.1 cc =
Gender - Male
Key inclusion criteria - (1) Risk classification according to NCCN guidelines: very low to favorable intermediate
(2) Strong desire for preservation of sexual function and ECOG PS: 0-1
(3) Eligible for treatment with MR linear accelerator
(4) No lymph node or distant metastasis on imaging
(5) No history of smoking, or has quit smoking
(6) Well-controlled diabetes (HbA1c =4 lesions within 5 mm of the NVB on both sides of the bilateral MRI before treatment
5) Patients with an EPIC combined sex score of 30 or less
6) Patients taking anticoagulants or antiplatelet drugs
7) Patients with psychosis or psychiatric symptoms who are deemed unable to participate in the study
8) Patients whom the principal investigator deems unsuitable for inclusion in the study
