Brief Title: PRAGMA (Prostate Radio Ablation Guided by Magnetic Resonance Imaging Acquisition) in Metastatic Prostate Cancer
Official Title: PRAGMA (Prostate Radio Ablation Guided by Magnetic Resonance Imaging Acquisition) in Metastatic Prostate Cancer
Study ID: NCT04220983
Brief Summary: Patients with metastatic prostate cancer can undergo MRI-guided prostate Stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) without significant adverse events, similar to what has been reported for patients with localized prostate cancer. We hypothesize that prostate SBRT will be well-tolerated in metastatic prostate cancer patients, with quality of life outcomes similar to what has been reported in non-metastatic prostate cancer patients.
Detailed Description: The MRidian ViewRay offers delivery of prostate SBRT with real-time MR guidance, which provides superior soft-tissue differentiation with excellent visualization of the prostate. This ViewRay platform offers the ideal setting for this study, that aims at precisely delivering prostate SBRT with a simultaneous integrated boost (when indicated) to visible nodules. In this study, we hope to demonstrate the safety and feasibility of using 36.25 Gy in 5 fractions, plus a simultaneous integrated boost (when indicated), in patients with metastatic prostate cancer.
