Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

This study protocol is for the second part of SpaceOAR real world study in which long term follow-up visits will be performed (up to 1 year) outside Boao Medical Tourism Pilot Zone. The SpaceOAR real world study is a retrospective and prospective, single arm, observational study (Ptotocol of SpaceOAR RWS Windchill#: 92743236). Subjects with localized T1-T2 prostate cancer who have already been injected with the SpaceOAR and have received radiotherapy or will receive radiotherapy will be enrolled, and clinical data related to radiotherapy will be collected. For subjects who have already completed radiotherapy before study kick-off, clinical data will be collected retrospectively, such as data related to radiotherapy, AE (if any) and MRI (if any). Follow up vist will be completed if applicable. For subjects who receive therapy after study kick-off, follow up visits at 2 weeks, 6weeks, 3 months and 10 months after radiotherapy will be scheduled to assess bowel, urinary and sexual function and quality of life.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

  • Child
  • Adult
  • Older Adult

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Sampling Method

Probability Sample

Study Population

During screening, patients who have received or will receive radiotherapy will be identified.

These who have been injected with SpaceOAR hydrogel will be enrolled. For patients who have already received radiotherapy, the clinical data can be collected retrospectively, and informed consent will be performed (If follow up visits can be conducted prospectively). For patients who will receive radiotherapy, informed consent will be gained.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Subjects have provided the written informed consent, are willing to participate in clinical data collection and willing to comply with study procedure. (for subjects enrolled prospectively)
  • Subjects must have been pathologically confirmed prostate cancer with clinical stage T1-T2, and have been treated with Space OAR Hydrogel, and have received or will receive radiotherapy.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • All subjects have received radiotherapy or will receive radiotherapy, who have injected with SpaceOAR hydrogel in Boao Medical Pilot Zone.
  • There is no specific exclusion criteria unless the patients refuse to sign the informed consent.

Subjects with localized T1-T2 prostate cancer in China who were injected with SpaceOAR Hydrogel
This observational study aims to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of radiotherapy for subjects with localized T1-T2 prostate cancer in China who were injected with SpaceOAR Hydrogel, via collecting clinical data related to radiotherapy.
Device: SpaceOAR Hydrogel
The SpaceOAR System is an in-situ formed absorbable hydrogel that is administered transperineally (with transrectal ultrasound guidance) between the prostate and rectum

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change of Dose Rectum Volume Receiving Radiation Between Radiotherapy Plannings Pre and Post SpaceOAR Hydrogel Injection.
Time Frame: Post injection gel surgery 1-10 days
Change of dose rectum volume receiving radiation,which is measured by Dose-volume histogram in radiotherapy planning pre and post SpaceOAR hydrogel injection radiotherpy planning is made based on CT simulation scans.
Post injection gel surgery 1-10 days

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Urinary, Bowel and Sexual Function Assessment Score
Time Frame: After the completion of radiotherapy, the month 3 Expanded Prostate Cancer Index Composite (EPIC)-26 score was compared to the baseline EPIC-26 score.
Descrpition of change of urinary, bowel and Sexual function assessment score, which are measured by Expanded Prostate cancer Index Composite (EPIC)-26. EPIC-26 is short form version to measure health related quality of life among men with prostate cancer, which contains 26 item and 5 domains : Urinary Incontinence, Urinary irritative/Obstructive, Bowel, Sexual, and Hormonal. Response options for each EPIC item form a Likert scale, and multi-item scale scores are transformed linearly from 0 score to 100 scores, with higher scores representing better.
After the completion of radiotherapy, the month 3 Expanded Prostate Cancer Index Composite (EPIC)-26 score was compared to the baseline EPIC-26 score.
Quality of Life Was Measured by EQ-5D-5L Scale（the Five-level Version of the EuroQol 5-Dimension Scale)
Time Frame: After the completion of radiotherapy, the month 3 EQ-5D-5L scale（the five-level version of the EuroQol 5-Dimension scale) score was compared to the baseline EQ-5D-5L scale score.
Frequencies and proportions of responses in five dimension (Mobility, Anxiety/Depression, Pain/Discomfort, Usual Activities and Self-Care) and different levels will be tabulated, which was measured by EQ-5D-5L scale（the five-level version of the EuroQol 5-Dimension scale).The minimum value and maximum value of EQ VAS (EQ visual analogue scale) are from 0 score to100 scores, which a higher value means a beter outcome.
After the completion of radiotherapy, the month 3 EQ-5D-5L scale（the five-level version of the EuroQol 5-Dimension scale) score was compared to the baseline EQ-5D-5L scale score.
The Distance Between Prostate and Rectum
Time Frame: After the completion of radiotherapy, the weeks 6 the distance between prostate and rectum measured by MRI was compared to the baseline the distance between prostate and rectum measured by MRI.
The distance between the posterior prostatic capsule and anterior rectal wall is measured on the axial image slice closest to halfway between apex and base, from posterior edge of prostate to inner rectal wall via MRI.
After the completion of radiotherapy, the weeks 6 the distance between prostate and rectum measured by MRI was compared to the baseline the distance between prostate and rectum measured by MRI.
the Distance Between the Prostate and Rectum
Time Frame: After the completion of radiotherapy, the month 10 the distance between prostate and rectum measured by MRI was compared to the baseline the distance between prostate and rectum measured by MRI.
The presence of SpaceOAR hydrogel between prostate and rectum is evaluated by MRI via distance indirectly.
After the completion of radiotherapy, the month 10 the distance between prostate and rectum measured by MRI was compared to the baseline the distance between prostate and rectum measured by MRI.
Adverse Event Related to SpaceOAR Hydrogel (Safety)
Time Frame: Through the entire study phase until 10 months after the completion of radiotherapy.
The relationship of AE /ADE/SAE/SADE/UADEs will be assessed by investigators.
Through the entire study phase until 10 months after the completion of radiotherapy.
