Efficacy and Safety of Simultaneous Integrated Boost Radiotherapy in HR/VHR Prostate Cancer With EPLNI (SIB-VMAT)
Prospective Evaluation of Efficacy and Safety of Simultaneous Integrated Boost (SIB-VMAT) Radiotherapy in HR/VHR Prostate Cancer With EPLNI
The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of hypofractionated simultaneous integrated boost volumetric arc radiation therapy (SIB - VMAT) for high-risk and very high-risk localized prostate cancer in terms of:
- Acute and late gastrointestinal and genitourinary toxicities.
- Evaluate the efficacy in terms of early bPFS.
- Dosimetric evaluation in terms of target coverage and organs at risk sparing

Background:
Despite the overwhelming success of hypofractionation for prostate-only radiotherapy, a substantial gap in high-level evidence exists regarding its application to elective pelvic lymph node irradiation. The pivotal trials establishing the 60 Gy/20 fraction standard (such as CHHiP and PROFIT) largely excluded extensive whole pelvic nodal irradiation. Consequently, there remains a lack of definitive, prospective data validating the safety and efficacy of a hypofractionated Simultaneous Integrated Boost (SIB) technique that concurrently delivers 44 Gy to the pelvic lymph nodes and 60 Gy to the prostate over 20 fractions. While modern image-guided, Volumetric Modulated Arc Therapy (VMAT) provides the dosimetric conformity required to spare organs at risk (OARs) such as the bladder and bowel, clinical confirmation of acute and late toxicities in the context of wide-field pelvic irradiation remains paramount.
Therefore, this prospective, single-arm trial is designed to address this critical evidence gap. By rigorously evaluating the GI and GU toxicity profiles and early biochemical control, this study seeks to validate the 4-week SIB protocol as a safe, efficacious, and resource-efficient standard of care for high-risk prostate cancer requiring elective pelvic nodal irradiation.
Objectives:
To evaluate the safety of hypofractionated SIB - VMAT radiation therapy in terms of acute and late GI and GU toxicities, and also evaluate the efficacy in terms of early bPFS, and lastly, dosimetric evaluation in terms of target coverage and OAR sparing Study Arms Single arm Population: Histologically confirmed localized prostatic adenocarcinoma with high and very high risk groups.
Primary Endpoint: Acute and late GIT & GU toxicities (according to CTCAE & RTOG).
Secondary Endpoints:
- To evaluate early biochemical control (serum PSA) at 6 and 12 months.
- To perform a dosimetric analysis of target coverage and of organs at risk (OARs) dose contains.
Significance α = 0.05 two-sided; power = 80%; minimum detectable HR = 0.65 Duration 12 months total (from IRB approval to submission of the manuscript).

Experimental: SIB-VMAT radiation therapy
Patients with histopathologically confirmed prostatic adenocarcinoma staged as high-risk / very high-risk localized disease will receive radiotherapy using Simultaneous Integrated Boost Volumetric Modulated Arc Therapy (SIB-VMAT) over a total duration of 4 weeks (20 consecutive working days). Target volumes: PTV-1 (PTV 44 Gy) Prostate + Pelvic Lymph Node PTV (PLNI): 44 Gy delivered in 20 fractions (2.2 Gy/fraction), including the internal iliac, external iliac, obturator, presacral nodal stations, whole prostate, and SV. PTV-2 (PTV 60 GY): 60 Gy delivered in 20 fractions (3 Gy/fraction), including the whole prostate and the base of the SV (proximal 1 cm). Systemic Therapy is allowed during the study when indicated. Patients will receive long-term Androgen Deprivation Therapy (ADT) for a duration of 18-24 months. ADT will be initiated as neoadjuvant therapy 2-3 months prior to the commencement of radiotherapy. |
