A Phase III Randomized Trial of MRI-Mapped Dose-Escalated Salvage Radiotherapy Post-Prostatectomy: The MAPS Trial

Browse Studies

City:   Miami
State:   Florida
Zip Code:   33136
Conditions:   Prostate Cancer - Prostate Adenocarcinoma
Purpose:   1. The investigators hypothesize that increasing radiation dose to the functional MRI-defined lesion in the prostate bed will result in an improved initial complete response (reduction in PSA to < 0.1 ng/mL), which is related to long-term outcome biochemically. 2. Biomarker expression levels differ in the DCE-MRI enhancing and non-enhancing tumor regions. 3. 10-15% of men undergoing RT have free circulating DNA (fcDNA) or tumor cells (CTC) that are related to an adverse treatment outcome. 4. Prostate cancer-related anxiety will be reduced in the MRI targeted SRT arm, because the patients will be aware that the dominant tumor will be targeted with higher radiation dose.
Study Summary:  
Criteria:   Inclusion Criteria: - Prostate cancer patients with a PSA after prostatectomy of at least 0.1 ng/mL and up to 3.0 ng/mL within 8 weeks prior to enrollment. - Patients with or without palpable abnormalities on digital rectal exam (DRE) are eligible. - Minimum of 3 months since prostatectomy to allow for return of urinary continence and healing. - MRI detectable lesion in prostate bed. DCE-MRI enhancing lesion in the prostate bed should be at least 0.4 cc and a maximum of 6 cc and was obtained ≤ 8 weeks prior to enrollment. - No evidence of metastatic (regional or distant) disease on the pelvic MRI. - Negative bone scan if deemed necessary by treating physician obtained ≤ 4 months prior to enrollment. - No previous pelvic radiotherapy. - Prior androgen deprivation therapy is permitted as long as it was >6 months previous to enrollment and was ≤7 months in duration. - Serum total testosterone is within 40% of normal assay limits, taken within 4 months prior to enrollment. - BUN and creatinine is within 40% of normal assay limits, taken within 8 weeks prior to enrollment. - No concurrent, active malignancy, other than nonmetastatic skin cancer or early stage chronic lymphocytic leukemia (well-differentiated small cell lymphocytic lymphoma). If a prior malignancy is in remission for ≥ 5 years then the patient is eligible. - Ability to understand and the willingness to sign a written informed consent document. - Zubrod performance status <2. - Patients must agree to fill out quality of life/psychosocial questionnaires. - Age ≥35 and ≤85 years. Exclusion Criteria: - Prostate cancer patients with a PSA after prostatectomy of less than 0.1 ng/mL or greater than 3.0 ng/mL. - Less than 3 months since prostatectomy. - Unable to obtain a 3T MRI of the pelvis and prostate with contrast prior to enrollment. - No detectable MRI lesion in prostate bed. - Patients with detectable DCE-MRI lesion which are less than 0.4 cc and greater than 6 cc - Evidence of metastatic (regional or distant) disease on the pelvic MRI. - Positive bone scan 4 months prior to enrollment. - Previous pelvic radiotherapy. - Prior androgen deprivation therapy is not permitted if it was within 6 months previous to enrollment and/or was > 7 months in duration. - Serum total testosterone is not within 40% of normal assay limits, taken within 4 months prior to enrollment. - BUN and creatinine is not within 40% of normal assay limits, taken within 8 weeks prior to enrollment. - Concurrent, active malignancy, which is not nonmetastatic skin cancer or early stage chronic lymphocytic leukemia (well-differentiated small cell lymphocytic lymphoma). If a prior malignancy is in remission for < 5 years then the patient is not eligible. - Inability to understand and unwilling to sign a written informed consent document. - Zubrod performance status ≥ 2. - Not willing to fill out quality of life/psychosocial questionnaires. - Age < 35 and > 85 years.
