Study Overview

Detailed Description

TITLE: Additional Treatments to the Local tumour for metastatic prostate cancer: Assessment of Novel Treatment Algorithms (ATLANTA)

OBJECTIVES: To determine whether the addition of local treatment to the prostate (minimally invasive therapy or radical therapy [prostatectomy or radiotherapy]), including selective metastases-directed therapy, improves oncological outcomes in men receiving standard of care treatment for newly diagnosed metastatic prostate cancer

PHASE: Phase II Randomised Control Trial (RCT) incorporating an internal pilot

DESIGN: Three-arm unblinded randomised controlled trial using a positive control

SAMPLE SIZE: 399

POPULATION: Men who are willing to undergo local therapy to the prostate and selective metastases-directed therapy for metastatic prostate cancer in addition to standard care systemic treatment.

STUDY HYPOTHESIS: We hypothesise that men with metastatic disease who undergo treatment of the local tumour in the form of either radical therapy (prostatectomy or radiotherapy) or minimally invasive ablative therapy (MIAT), combined with metastases directly therapy, will have improved survival compared to those who receive standard of treatment alone. We will be investigating this newly evolving treatment paradigm in a formal randomised control trial (RCT).

TREATMENT/MAIN STUDY PROCEDURES: (including treatment duration and follow-up) Our pragmatic design ensures all eligible patients can be approached and randomised as there is no requirement for fitness to undergo RP. The design also incorporates the latest approach for standard of care as well as management of lymph nodes.

Arm 1*: Standard of Care (SOC) treatment as determined by treating physician (positive control) (androgen deprivation with or without Docetaxel chemotherapy or other systemic/local directed standard of care treatment including but not limited to Abiraterone or Enzalutamide). Radiotherapy in this arm defined as palliative/cytoreductive in high volume metastases or to mirror STAMPEDE local radiotherapy arm in low volume metastases.

Arm 2**: Minimally Invasive Ablative Therapy (MIAT) to local tumour / prostate in addition to SOC systemic treatment. Predominantly cryotherapy but based on disease characteristics, HIFU also. Metastases directed therapy declared prior to randomisation.

Arm 3**: Radical therapy (Prostatectomy or External beam radiotherapy [60Gy x 20 or 74Gy + in 32-37 weeks]) in addition to SOC systemic treatment. Modality based on physician and patient preference and patient co-morbidities. Metastases directed therapy declared prior to randomisation.

FOLLOW-UP DURATION: Until progression or minimum 2-years or maximum 4 years whichever is first (or 6 months for the Pilot if the trial does not progress to Phase II).

Prior to enrolment all patients must undergo Standard of Care (SOC) staging investigations for localised and metastatic disease and will need to have histologically proven local disease within the prostate. There will be no restriction on the type of biopsy used for diagnosis.

*ADT but not chemotherapy may be initiated prior to recruitment.The decision as to which SOC systemic therapy regimen will be used is by the treating clinician and/or clinical team (to be declared upfront prior to randomisation). If radiotherapy is planned for local disease in some cases in the SOC arm then this will be declared upfront prior to randomisation by the treating physician. Similarly, if lymph node radiotherapy is to be advocated then this is to be declared upfront prior to randomisation by the treating physician and can be applied to any one of the three arms. Randomisation into a treatment arm would occur at the time of recruitment which would be within 3 months of starting SOC systemic therapy.

Extra blood and urine samples will be identified using a special study number assigned to each patient, in such a way that the scientists analysing them will not be able to find out patients identity.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Active Comparator: Control Arm: Standard of Care (SOC)

Standard of Care (SOC) treatment as determined by treating physician (positive control) (androgen deprivation with or without docetaxel chemotherapy or other systemic standard of care treatment including but not limited to Abiraterone or Enzalutamide).

Radiotherapy to the prostate in this arm is defined as cytoreductive (for symptom control) in high volume (>/=4) metastases or to mirror current accepted local radiotherapy dose regimens for men with low volume metastases (<4 metastases).

Metastases directed therapy will not be permitted in the control arm. Palliative radiotherapy for symptom control or for prevention of fracture will be permitted as standard clinical practice.

Androgen deprivation with or without docetaxel chemotherapy, Abiraterone, Enzalutamide or any other proven agent) treatment as determined by treating physician (positive control).
Active Comparator: Intervention Arm 1: Minimally Invasive Ablative Therapy (MIAT)

MIAT to prostate in form of cryotherapy or high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU), in addition to SOC systemic treatment. No local prostate radiotherapy will be given as part of this intervention. Radiotherapy can be given subsequently for palliative reasons.

Metastatic directed therapy will be available for use in this arm (if declared at randomisation).

Androgen deprivation with or without docetaxel chemotherapy, Abiraterone, Enzalutamide or any other proven agent) treatment as determined by treating physician (positive control).

MIAT includes High intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) or Cryotherapy to the prostate.

Metastatic Directed Therapy available for use.

Other Names:
  • Metastatic Directed Therapy (MDT)
Active Comparator: Intervention Arm 2: Radical Therapy

Radical therapy in form of prostatectomy (any approach) or external beam radiotherapy (radical dose) in addition to SOC systemic treatment. Modality based on physician and patient preference and patient co-morbidities.

For patients undergoing radical prostatectomy no local prostate radiotherapy will be given as part of the intervention. Radiotherapy can be given subsequently for palliative reasons.

Radical radiotherapy doses in this arm will be higher than SOC.

Metastatic directed therapy will be available for use in this arm (if declared at randomisation).
