SUPR-SABR Trial Summary

This trial tests a novel way of treating prostate cancer with radiation that could reduce side effects.

Who is the study for?
Men over 18 with untreated, localized prostate cancer (cT1-T2c, PSA<20 or <10 if on certain medications, Grade Group 1-3) and in good health can join. They must be able to undergo specific MRI scans for treatment planning and have a prostate volume less than 120 cc. Those with prior treatments for prostate cancer or other pelvic malignancies, distant metastases from prostate cancer, lymph node involvement by the disease, or severe urinary symptoms are excluded.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial is testing SUPR-SABR—a high-dose radiation therapy targeting the prostate while sparing surrounding areas like the urethra and rectum. It aims to see if this method reduces side effects compared to standard SABR in treating low- and intermediate-risk prostate cancer.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include genitourinary issues such as urinary frequency/urgency/incontinence and gastrointestinal problems like diarrhea or discomfort due to targeted high-dose radiation near sensitive areas.

Experimental Treatment
Group I: SUPR-SABR treatmentExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
The prescription dose of this study will be 40 Gy in 5 fractions assigned to PTV_4000 which permits sparing of the rectum, urethra and pudendal artery. There will be a secondary dose level of 36.25 Gy in 5 fractions. A minimum dose of 36.25 Gy will be given to the entire prostate PTV_3625. 36.25 Gy in five fractions is currently endorsed as a standard of care for localized prostate cancer by the National Comprehensive Cancer Network guidelines in prostate cancer. Escalating the therapeutic radiation dose above 36.25 Gy provides potential for improved biochemical control of prostate cancer and decrease in relapse free survival.

Frequently Asked Questions

These questions and answers are submitted by anonymous patients, and have not been verified by our internal team.

Is enrollment for this medical experiment still open?

"Affirmative. Information on clinicaltrials.gov reveals that this medical experiment, posted in May of 2023, is still recruiting patients for participation. This research requires 36 individuals to be recruited from 1 separate location."

Answered by AI

What is the scale of engagement with this research project?

"Affirmative. Clinicaltrials.gov has evidence that this clinical investigation, first published on May 12th 2023, is currently enrolling participants. Altogether 36 individuals must be recruited from one trial site."

Answered by AI

What are the goals of this research experiment?

"This medical trial's primary outcome of measurement is a 12-month Expanded Prostate cancer Index Composite (EPIC) gastrointestinal score. Secondary endpoints encompass Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events, version 5 grade 3 or higher adverse events from radiation therapy; 24 month biochemical failure rate expressed as a percentage; and the 24-month EPIC genitourinary score which measures severity of symptoms on a scale of 0 to 100, where lower scores indicate greater impact."
