MRI-guided Transurethral Urethral Ultrasound Ablation for the Treatment of Low to Intermediate Grade Prostate Cancer
Focal Prostate Ablation for Low to Intermediate Grade Cancer Utilizing TULSA Profound System

Conditions
Summary
This clinical trial tests whether the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-guided transurethral ultrasound ablation (TULSA) procedure is safe and effective in treating patients with low to intermediate grade prostate cancer. MRI-guided TULSA ablation is a minimally invasive procedure that uses an ultrasound device guided by MRI imaging to deliver high-energy sound waves, producing very high temperature to ablate (destroy) tumor cells in a targeted manner. The MRI-guided TULSA procedure may help patients avoid surgery and help improve prostate cancer patients' quality of life.
Eligibility
Inclusion Criteria8
- Male
- Age 45-80 years, with \> 10 years life expectancy
- Biopsy-confirmed, NCCN \[Gleason Grade (GG) 1, favorable GG 2 and unfavorable GG3\] intermediate-risk prostate cancer
- Stage =\< T2c, N0, M0
- International Society of Urological Pathology (ISUP) grade group 1, 2, or 3 disease on transrectal ultrasonography (TRUS)-guided biopsy (minimum 8 cores, combination of systematic and MRI fusion-guided) or in-bore biopsy \[minimum 3 cores from each Prostate Imaging-Reporting and Data System (PI-RADS) version (v)2 category \>= 3 lesion\]. Biopsy reported within 12 months of baseline visit, with minimum 6-week interval between biopsy and baseline
- Prostate specific antigen (PSA) =\< 20 ng/mL reported within 3 months of baseline
- Treatment naive
- Planned ablation volume \< 3.0 cm axial radius from the urethra on mpMRI acquired within 6 months of baseline
Exclusion Criteria11
- Inability to undergo MRI or general anaesthesia
- Suspected tumour \> 30 mm from the prostatic urethra or \< 14 mm from the prostatic urethra
- Prostate calcifications \> 3 mm in maximum extent obstructing ablation of tumor on low-dose pelvic computed tomography (CT)
- Criteria subject to additional review and approval by sponsor. Alternatively, prospective TRUS to query calcifications or susceptibility-weighted MRI if available may be used to assess calcification. Imaging for calcification screening must be dated within 1 year of baseline visit
- Unresolved urinary tract infection or prostatitis
- History of proctitis, bladder stones, hematuria, history of acute urinary retention, severe neurogenic bladder
- Artificial urinary sphincter, penile implant or intraprostatic implant
- Less than 10 years life expectancy
- Patients who are otherwise not deemed candidates for radical prostatectomy (RP)
- Inability or unwillingness to provide informed consent
- History of anal or rectal fibrosis or stenosis, or urethral stenosis, or other abnormality challenging insertion of devices
