About this trial

For this study, high risk prostate cancer patients with lower risk ARTERA scores will be treated with 6 months of Androgen Deprivation Therapy (ADT) in conjunction with dose escalated radiotherapy to the prostate and nodes. Specifically, patients enrolled in this study will undergo one of several dose-escalated forms of radiotherapy which would include SBRT with or without a brachytherapy boost.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

5-Year Cumulative Incidence of Distant Metastases

Incidence of distant metastases (DM). DM is defined as the first occurrence of radiographic or biopsy-confirmed distant metastatic disease.

Time frame
Up to Year 5

Secondary outcomes

1

Distant Metastasis-Free Survival (DMFS)

Defined as the time from study enrollment to the first occurrence of distant metastasis or death from any cause, whichever occurs first.

Time frame
Up to Year 5
2

Time to Biochemical Failure

Time to biochemical failure will be measured from study enrollment to the date when the Phoenix criterion (PSA nadir + 2 ng/mL) is first met.

Time frame
Up to Year 5
3

Overall Survival (OS)

Defined as the time from study enrollment to death from any cause.

Time frame
Up to Year 5
4

Change in Expanded Prostate Cancer Index Composite-26 (EPIC-26) Score

26-item survey assessing prostate cancer-related symptom domains. Each item is rated on a Likert score. The raw score is the sum of responses and is converted to a standard score from 0-100, where higher scores indicate greater quality of life.

Time frame
Baseline, Year 2
