Focal salvage treatment for radiorecurrent prostate cancer: A magnetic resonance-guided stereotactic body radiotherapy versus high-dose-rate brachytherapy planning study.

ABSTRACT:

Background and purpose

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-guided focal salvage high-dose-rate brachytherapy (FS-HDR-BT) is one of the treatment options for radiorecurrent localized prostate cancer. However, due to the invasive nature of the treatment, not all patients are eligible. Magnetic resonance linear accelerator (MR-Linac) systems open up new treatment possibilities and could potentially replace FS-HDR-BT treatment. We conducted a planning study to investigate the feasibility of delivering a single 19 Gy dose to the recurrent lesion using a 1.5 Tesla MR-Linac system.

Materials and methods

Thirty patients who underwent FS-HDR-BT were included. The clinical target volume (CTV) encompassed the visible lesion plus a 5 mm margin. Treatment plans were created for a 1.5 Tesla MR-Linac system using a 1 mm planning target volume (PTV) margin. A dose of 19 Gy was prescribed to ? 95% of the PTV. In case this target could not be reached, i.e. when organs-at-risk (OAR) constraints were violated, a dose of ? 17 Gy to ? 90% of the PTV was accepted. MR-Linac plans were compared to clinical FS-HDR-BT plans.

Results

Target dose coverage was achieved in 14/30 (47%) FS-HDR-BT plans and 17/30 (57%) MR-Linac plans, with comparable median D95% and D90%. In FS-HDR-BT plans, a larger volume reached ? 150% of the prescribed dose. Urethra D10%, rectum D1cm³, and rectum D2cm³ were lower in the FS-HDR-BT plans, while bladder dose was comparable for both modalities.

Conclusion

Single fraction treatment of recurrent prostate cancer lesions may be feasible using stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) on a MR-Linac system.

Project description:PurposeNCT03253744 is a phase 1 trial with the primary objective to identify the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of salvage stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) in patients with local prostate cancer recurrence after brachytherapy. Additional objectives included biochemical control and imaging response.Methods and materialsThis trial was initially designed to test 3 therapeutic dose levels (DLs): 40 Gy (DL1), 42.5 Gy (DL2), and 45 Gy (DL3) in 5 fractions. Intensity modulation was used to deliver the prescription dose to the magnetic resonance imaging and prostate-specific membrane antigen-based positron emission tomography imaging-defined gross tumor volume while simultaneously delivering 30 Gy to an elective volume defined by the prostate gland. This phase 1 trial followed a 3+3 design with a 3-patient expansion at the MTD. Toxicities were scored until trial completion at 2 years post-SBRT using Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events version 5.0. Escalation was halted if 2 dose limiting toxicities occurred, defined as any persistent (>4 days) grade 3 toxicity occurring within the first 3 weeks after SBRT or any grade ≥3 genitourinary (GU) or grade 4 gastrointestinal toxicity thereafter.ResultsBetween August 2018 and January 2023, 9 patients underwent salvage SBRT and were observed for a median of 22 months (Q1-Q3, 20-43 months). No grade 3 to 5 adverse events related to study treatment were observed; thus, no dose limiting toxicities occurred during the observation period. Escalation was halted by amendment given excellent biochemical control in DL1 and DL2 in the setting of a high incidence of clinically significant late grade 2 GU toxicity. Therefore, the MTD was considered 42.5 Gy in 5 fractions (DL2). One- and 2-year biochemical progression-free survival were 100% and 86%, representing a single patient in the trial cohort with biochemical failure (prostate-specific antigen [PSA] nadir + 2.0) at 20 months posttreatment.ConclusionsThe MTD of salvage SBRT for the treatment of intraprostatic radiorecurrence after brachytherapy was 42.5 Gy in 5 fractions producing an 86% 2-year biochemical progression-free survival rate, with 1 poststudy failure at 20 months. The most frequent clinically significant toxicity was late grade 2 GU toxicity.

Project description:BackgroundUp to half of all men who undergo primary radiotherapy for localized prostate cancer (PCa) experience local recurrence.ObjectiveTo evaluate the safety and early functional and oncological outcomes of salvage magnetic resonance imaging-guided transurethral ultrasound ablation (sTULSA) for men with localized radiorecurrent PCa.Design setting and participantsThis prospective, single-center phase 1 study (NCT03350529) enrolled men with biopsy-proven localized PCa recurrence after radiotherapy. Multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) and 18F prostate-specific membrane antigen-1007 (18F PSMA-1007) positron emission tomography (PET)-computed tomography (CT) were used to confirm organ-confined disease localization. Patients underwent either whole-gland or partial sTULSA, depending on their individual tumor characteristics.Outcome measurements and statistical analysisPatients were followed at 3-mo intervals. Adverse events (AEs, Clavien-Dindo scale), functional status questionnaires (Expanded Prostate Cancer Index [EPIC]-26, International Prostate Symptom Score, International Index of Erectile Function-5), uroflowmetry, and prostate-specific antigen (PSA) were assessed at every visit. Disease control was assessed at 1 yr using mpMRI and 18F-PSMA-1007 PET-CT, followed by prostate biopsies.Results and limitationsEleven patients (median age 69 yr, interquartile range [IQR] 68-74) underwent sTULSA (3 whole-gland, 8 partial sTULSA) and have completed 12-mo follow-up. Median PSA was 7.6 ng/ml (IQR 4.9-10) and the median time from initial PCa diagnosis to sTULSA was 11 yr (IQR 9.5-13). One grade 3 and three grade 2 AEs were reported, related to urinary retention and infection. Patients reported a modest degradation in functional status, most significantly a 20% decline in the EPIC-26 irritative/obstructive domain at 12 mo. A decline in maximum flow rate (24%) was also observed. At 1 yr, 10/11 patients were free of any PCa in the targeted ablation zone, with two out-of-field recurrences. Limitations include the nonrandomized design, limited sample size, and short-term oncological outcomes.ConclusionssTULSA appears to be safe and feasible for ablation of radiorecurrent PCa, offering encouraging preliminary oncological control.Patient summaryWe present safety and 1-yr functional and oncological outcomes of magnetic resonance imaging-guided transurethral ultrasound ablation (TULSA) as a salvage treatment for local prostate cancer recurrence after primary radiation. Salvage TULSA is safe and shows the ability to effectively ablate prostate cancer recurrence, with acceptable toxicity.
