Outcomes
Primary Outcome Measures
Rate of acute grade 3 or higher GI and GU toxicities
Proportion of patients experiencing acute grade 3 or higher GI and GU toxicities. Acute toxicities are those occurring within 90 days of start of treatment, assessed using the NCI Common Toxicity Criteria (CTCAE) version 3.0.
Rate of late grade 3 or higher GI and GU toxicities
Proportion of patients experiencing late grade 3 or higher GI and GU toxicities. Late toxicities are those occurring after 90 days post start of treatment, assessed using the NCI Common Toxicity Criteria (CTCAE) version 3.0.
Biochemical Disease-Free Survival Rate (bDFS)
Biochemical Disease-Free Survival (bDFS) as defined by Phoenix and ASTRO. Biochemical progression-free survival events were defined as PSA of ≥ 0.4 ng/mL following postoperative radiotherapy, PSA > 2.0 ng/mL at any time, clinical progression, initiation of non-protocol hormone therapy, and death from any cause.
Secondary Outcome Measures
Rate of local failure
Proportion of patients with 'local failure', which is defined as clinical evidence local recurrence. Clinical failure includes a palpable abnormality that has increased in size, failure of regression of a palpable abnormality, or redevelopment of a prostate abnormality after complete response, further confirmed by prostate biopsy.
Rate of distant failure
Proportion of patients with 'distant failure' (includes regional failure) which is defined as documented clinically via bone scan, CT or other imaging study that shows metastatic disease (disease located distant from the prostate area).
Overall Survival (OS)
Median number of years that patients remain alive after study treatment until death from any cause.
Quality of life (QoL) - FACT-G
The Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy- General (FACT-G) is a self-administered 27-item questionnaire designed to measure four domains of HRQOL in cancer patients. It is comprised of physical (PWB), social (SWB), emotional (EWB), and functional (FWB) well-being subscales: (PWB; 7-items, score range 0-28), (SWB; 7-items, score range 0-28), (EWB; 6-items, score range 0-24), (FWB; 7-items, score range 0-28). The FACT-G generates an overall score of 0-108). All questions in the FACT-G use a 5-point rating scale (0 = Not at all; 1 = A little bit; 2 = Somewhat; 3 = Quite a bit; and 4 = Very much) and asks information regarding the patients last 7 days.

5. Study Description
Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to determine, in both low-risk and intermediate-risk cohorts, the rates of acute and late grade 3 or higher gastrointestinal and genitourinary toxicity observed during a 24 month follow up and to estimate the rate of biochemical Disease-Free Survival, Phoenix and American Society for Therapeutic Radiology and Oncology definitions, at 2 years following hypofractionated stereotactic body radiation therapy for low and intermediate risk prostate cancer.
Detailed Description
Radiosurgery should be ideal for treating prostate cancer because:
targeting accuracy for static targets is excellent, with an error of about 1mm,
it can adjust for intra-fractional organ motion, reducing the volume of the target PTV and therefore the dose to surrounding organs,
by using over one-hundred non-conplanar beams, the dose gradient between the prostate and surrounding tissues may be superior to that achieved with conventional linear accelerators,
the radiobiology of prostate cancer may favor large dose per fractions.
