Exclusion Criteria:

  • A history of other malignancy diagnosed within the previous 60 months except for non-melanoma skin cancer.
  • Any patients who have received other investigational therapy within the last 60 days
  • Individuals that have previously been implanted with permanent Beacon transponders
  • Patients that have any prosthetic implants in the pelvic region that contain metal or conductive materials (e.g., an artificial hip)
  • Patients with implanted pacemaker or defibrillators

  • Hormone therapy to include LHRH agonist or oral anti-androgen
  • Finasteride and Dutasteride use not excluded

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Percentage of Patients With a Minimally Detected Decline (MDD) in Quality of Life (QOL)
To evaluate the safety of the proposed hyperfractionation regimen of 5 fractions of radiation to treat prostate cancer with guidance of radiation using the Calypso 4D Treatment System (Calypso, and to compare it to that expected from conventional treatment, which would involve 40-42 smaller radiation fractions over 8-9 weeks. Percentage of patients with a MDD in Quality of Life (QOL) surveys for urinary incontinence (UI), urinary obstructive (UO), bowel (BS), and sexual (SS) domains were reviewed at 6 months and 24 months.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Percentage of Patients With a PSA Nadir of <3.35 ng/ml at 12 Months
To estimate one year prostate specific antigen (PSA)control of prostate cancer when treated with stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) using continuous real-time evaluation of prostate motion.
Relation Between Dose Distribution and Toxicities.
To look at the relation between dose distribution and toxicities and to determine if reconstructed delivered doses are more predictive of toxicity than planned doses.
Relation Between Reconstructed Delivered Dose Distributions.
To determine the relation between reconstructed delivered dose distributions, accounting for prostate translation and rotation, and tumor control probabilities.
Frequency of Required Interventions.
To assess the frequency of required interventions (interruptions) based on real-time prostate translations and rotations to verify that the proposed planning target volume(PTV) margins and action level are appropriate and practical. This will be assessed by the percentage of patients with no interventions for any fraction, the percentage of patients with 1-2 fractions interrupted and the percentage of patients with more than two fractions interrupted and the percentage of patients that had an interruption of the beam at least once for all 5 fractions.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of using radiation therapy with 5 fractions of radiation to treat prostate cancer with guidance of radiation using the Calypso 4D Treatment System (Calypso).A number of recent studies have used 5 radiation fraction to treat prostate cancer over 2-3 weeks as compared to the typical treatment which would involve 40-42 smaller radiation fractions over 8-9 weeks. This type of radiation using a smaller number of treatments has been called hypofractionated radiation therapy. The Calypso is a new technique which uses beacons implanted into the prostate which using radio signals are able to localize and track the position of the prostate continuously during radiation therapy. The Calypso system has been approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for guidance of radiation therapy during the treatment of prostate cancer and is being utilized all across the United States. However, it has not been tested for hypofractionated radiation therapy.
