ARGOS/CLIMBER Trial Summary
This trial is testing a new way to treat prostate cancer that is more precise and has fewer side effects.
Who is the study for?
Men over 18 with high intermediate-risk, high-risk, or very high-risk prostate cancer that hasn't spread beyond the pelvis. They must have no history of prior prostate cancer treatments (except for certain medications), be able to undergo MRI and PSMA PET scans without contraindications like incompatible implants, and not have severe urinary problems or conditions preventing radiotherapy.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial is testing a targeted radiation therapy called SBRT guided by PSMA PET scans and mpMRI images in men with specific risk levels of prostate cancer. It involves fusing these images with CT simulations for precise tumor targeting, using fiducial markers for motion management during treatment, and escalating doses to identified targets while protecting surrounding organs.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include irritation or damage to nearby organs such as the bladder and rectum due to radiation exposure, changes in urinary function, fatigue from treatment sessions, skin reactions at the site of radiation application, and possible allergic reactions to imaging agents used.
