Cryoablation Therapy or Radiotherapy Therapy for Stage III Prostate Cancer (CRYO-PCA-III)

A Prospective Multi-center Study to Compare the QOL and Efficacy of External Beam Radiation Therapy or Cryoablation Therapy for Stage III Prostate Cancer

This trial is going to evaluate tumor control and quality of life in patients with prostate cancer treated with radiotherapy or cryoablation.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

OBJECTIVES:

  • To determine the tumor control in patients with prostate cancer treated with radiotherapy or cryoablation
  • To determine the quality of life of these patients. OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study. Patients are stratified according to Gleason score (≥ 8 vs 7 vs ≤ 6), persistent prostatic specific antigen (PSA) at allocation (> 0.5 ng/mL vs ≤ 0.5 ng/mL), participating center. Patient are allocated to two treatment arms.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Arm I

Patients receive oral bicalutamide once daily on days 1-28. Patients also receive luteinizing-hormone releasing-hormone (LHRH) agonist treatment intramuscularly (IM) on day 8. Treatment with LHRH agonist repeats every 12 weeks for 24 weeks.

Patients receive cryoablation therapy.
