Brief Title: Early Salvage Stereotactic Radiotherapy for Biochemical Failure After RP
Official Title: Early Salvage Stereotactic Radiotherapy (esSBRT) for Biochemical Failure After Radical Prostatectomy :a Phase II Study
Study ID: NCT05667636
Brief Summary: After radical prostatectomy, 30-60% of patients will develop recurrent disease. Salvage radiotherapy, usually at 2 Gy per fraction, is the main treatment option for these patients. The aim of the present study is to determine the 3-yr biochemical failure free survival of the stereotactic approach in 5 fractions in the context of salvage radiotherapy for biochemical failure after radical prostatectomy.
Detailed Description: The present study aims at delivering 30 Gy to the prostatic bed in 5 fractions. At the same time, the pelvic nodes will be covered to 25 Gy, but in those patients considered at low risk of nodal involvement. In patients with evidence of macroscopic disease at the tumor bed through DCE-MRI, 40 Gy will be delivered in 5 fractions. Selected patients will receive 6-month LHRH analogue preceded by Bicalutamide tablet 50 mg, daily, for 2 weeks to control for possible tumor flare.
