Improving Sexual Quality of Life - Randomized Trial of Two vs Five MRI Guided SABR Treatments for Prostate Cancer (NCT05600400)

Improving Sexual Quality of Life - A Phase 2 Randomized Controlled Trial of Two Versus Five Stereotactic MRI-Guided Ablative Radiotherapy Treatments for Prostate Cancer

๐ŸŸข Recruiting Observational / Diagnostic ๐Ÿ“‹ Clinical Research Protocol Sponsor: Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre

๐Ÿฉบ Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)

Prostate Stereotactic ablative body radiotherapy (SABR) is an established technique that delivers radiation in a non-invasive approach for men with prostate cancer. The treatment regimen is given in total of 5 fractions with one treatment per day at every other day or weekly sessions. Ultra-hypofractionated radiotherapy (UHRT) is an emerging monotherapy for localized prostate cancer however, several trials have observed demonstrating superior biochemical control of a two-fraction (HDR) over single-fraction approach. The study aims to compare an experimental shorter course of prostate ultra-hypofractionated radiotherapy (UHRT) that will deliver what is expected to be an equivalent amount of radiation as given in the standard 5 treatment regimen. UHRT is given in 2 treatments with one treatment a week for 2 consecutive weeks.
