Personalized Radiotherapy for Biochemical Recurrence of Prostate Cancer After Prostatectomy.

About this study

A randomized phase III trial to study the effect of adding lymph node irradiation in patients with poor prostate-specific antigen (PSA) response during salvage radiotherapy for biochemical recurrence (0.15 ≤ PSA \<0.70 ng/ml) after prostatectomy.

Condition
Prostate Cancer
Tested
Radiation to the prostate bed with or without addition of radiation of lymph node irradiation.

  • Age ≥18 years.
  • World Health Organization (WHO) performance status 0-1.
  • Estimated life expectancy \>10 years.
  • Histological evidence of prostate cancer in the prostatectomy specimen
  • Primary tumor, regional nodes, metastasis (TNM): any primary tumor (pT), pathologically node-negative (pN0), M0.

Exclusion 7

  • Metastases (regional lymph nodes or distant)\* diagnosed with imaging.
  • Prior or ongoing hormonal therapy (antiandrogens or gonadotropin releasing hormone).
  • Prior radiotherapy to the pelvis.
  • Prior malignancy other than prostate cancer and basalioma in the past five years.
  • Clinically significant (i.e. active) cardiovascular disease e.g. myocardial infarction (≤6 months), unstable angina, New York Heart Association (NYHA) class III-IV congestive heart failure.
  • Severe pulmonary disease.
  • Any other serious or uncontrolled illness which in the opinion of the investigator makes it undesirable for the patient to enter the trial.
