Extremely Hypofractionated Intensity Modulated Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy for the Treatment of Prostate Cancer With Rising PSA After Radical Prostatectomy

Extremely Hypofractionated Intensity Modulated Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy for Adjuvant or Salvage Treatment for Rising PSA After Radical Prostatectomy (EXCALIBUR)

INTERVENTIONAL

Conditions

Summary

This phase II trial investigates the effect of extremely hypofractionated intensity modulated stereotactic body radiotherapy in treating patients with prostate cancer that has rising prostate specific antigen (PSA) after radical prostatectomy. Stereotactic body radiation therapy uses special equipment to position a patient and deliver radiation to tumors with high precision. This method may kill tumor cells with fewer doses over a shorter period and cause less damage to normal tissue. Hypofractionated radiation therapy delivers higher doses of radiation therapy over a shorter period of time and may kill more tumor cells and have fewer side effects.

Plain Language Summary

Simplified for easier understanding

This study is testing a highly focused, short-course radiation treatment (called stereotactic body radiotherapy or SBRT) for men with prostate cancer whose PSA level has risen after having their prostate surgically removed. **You may be eligible if:** - You previously had your prostate removed for prostate cancer - Your PSA has been rising on two or more consecutive blood tests (above 0.03 ng/mL), OR you had high-risk features found during surgery, OR your cancer spread to nearby lymph nodes - You are 18 or older and in reasonably good physical health - You had recent pelvic imaging (CT and MRI within the last 4 months) **You may NOT be eligible if:** - There is evidence that your cancer has spread to distant parts of the body - You have a rare type of prostate cancer (neuroendocrine or small cell) - You have already received radiation to the pelvis - You have Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, or ataxia telangiectasia (a rare genetic disorder) Talk to your doctor to see if this trial is right for you.
