Arm Description
36.25 Gy delivered in 5 fractions of 7.25 Gy per fraction in patients with low and intermediate risk prostate cancer.
Outcomes
Primary Outcome Measures
Risk for Gastrointestinal (GI) and Genitourinary (GU) Toxicity
To estimate the rates of acute and late Grade 3-5 gastrointestinal and genitourinary toxicities (adverse events [AE]) observed during the 5 years following CyberKnife (CK) treatment for prostate cancer. Kaplan Meier estimates for 5-yr and 10-yr are reported.
Adverse events occurring within 3 months of treatment were categorized as acute toxicities, and those developing after 3 months were considered late toxicities.
The rates were determined using the first Grade 3 or higher adverse event per patient, reported as possibly, probably, or definitely related to CK treatment.
The Common Toxicity Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) Version 3.0 was used to determine the Grade or severity of adverse events in this study, with Grade 3 being severe or medically significant but not immediately life-threatening, Grade 4 being life-threatening and Grade 5 being death related to the adverse event.
Biochemical Disease-Free Survival (bDFS)
To determine the rate of biochemical Disease-Free Survival (bDFS), using the Phoenix definition, following CyberKnife treatment. Kaplan Meier estimates for 5-yr and 10-yr are reported.
The Phoenix definition uses a Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) value exceeding the patient's lowest PSA value (nadir) + 2 ng/mL as an indicator of disease recurrence. The percentage of patients who did not have such a PSA rise or receive any interventional therapy to treat prostate cancer are reported below.
Secondary Outcome Measures
Disease Control and Survival Outcomes
To determine the rates of local failure, distant failure, disease-free survival, disease-specific survival, and overall survival following CyberKnife treatment in prostate cancer patients. Kaplan Meier estimates for 5-yr and 10-yr are reported.
Quality of Life Assessments: American Urological Association (AUA) Symptom Index (SI)
AUA-SI is a 7-item self-report measure used to assess urinary urgency, frequency, and voiding symptoms with scores ranging from 0 (no symptom) to 5 (symptom occurs almost always).
Total score: 0-7 mild symptoms; 8-19 moderate symptoms; 20-35 severe symptoms
Quality of Life Assessments: Expanded Prostate Cancer Index Composite (EPIC) -26 Urinary Incontinence
EPIC-26 is a short form version of the Expanded Prostate Cancer Index Composite, and is a validated comprehensive instrument developed to measure the health-related quality of life among men with prostate cancer. EPIC-26 consists of 26 items under 5 domains of urinary incontinence, urinary irritative/obstructive, bowel, sexual, and hormonal.
Answers qualitatively measure patient's bother for each symptom and are then normalized on a scale of 0 (worst) to 100 (best) to calculate domain scores if sufficient input is provided.
Quality of Life Assessments: EPIC-26 Urinary Irritative Obstructive
EPIC-26 is a short form version of the Expanded Prostate Cancer Index Composite, and is a validated comprehensive instrument developed to measure the health-related quality of life among men with prostate cancer. EPIC-26 consists of 26 items under 5 domains of urinary incontinence, urinary irritative/obstructive, bowel, sexual, and hormonal.
Answers qualitatively measure patient's bother for each symptom and are then normalized on a scale of 0 (worst) to 100 (best) to calculate domain scores if sufficient input is provided.
Quality of Life Assessments: EPIC-26 Bowel
EPIC-26 is a short form version of the Expanded Prostate Cancer Index Composite, and is a validated comprehensive instrument developed to measure the health-related quality of life among men with prostate cancer. EPIC-26 consists of 26 items under 5 domains of urinary incontinence, urinary irritative/obstructive, bowel, sexual, and hormonal.
Answers qualitatively measure patient's bother for each symptom and are then normalized on a scale of 0 (worst) to 100 (best) to calculate domain scores if sufficient input is provided.
Quality of Life Assessments: EPIC-26 Sexual
EPIC-26 is a short form version of the Expanded Prostate Cancer Index Composite, and is a validated comprehensive instrument developed to measure the health-related quality of life among men with prostate cancer. EPIC-26 consists of 26 items under 5 domains of urinary incontinence, urinary irritative/obstructive, bowel, sexual, and hormonal.

5. Study Description
Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to determine the effects of CyberKnife radiosurgery in patients with early stage organ-confined prostate cancer.
Detailed Description
The CyberKnife Robotic Radiosurgery System is a unique radiosurgical system capable of treating tumors anywhere in the body noninvasively and with sub-millimeter accuracy. The CyberKnife System delivers radiation using a precise targeting methodology allowing a focal treatment margin around the target, thus limiting the volume of adjacent tissue receiving high doses radiation. This in turn allows the delivery of high doses of radiation to the prostate over a short series of treatments.
