Outcomes
Primary Outcome Measures
Number of Patients Who Experienced Early Toxicity of SBRT With Integrated Boost for Localized Prostate Cancer
Early toxicity (defined as events occurring within 90 days of therapy) will be assessed by physician history and physical exams and patient toxicity/quality-of-life questionnaires to be administered at regular intervals.
Secondary Outcome Measures
Treatment Planning Feasibility
Feasibility will be defined as the ability of the treatment planner to create a plan that meets the following criteria:
100% of radiation target prescription (36.25 Gy) covers greater than or equal to 95% of the target (prostate)
At least 95% of the boost prostate (area within the prostate most likely harboring cancer) prescription (38.0 Gy) covers 95% of this boost target volume
All normal tissue dose constraints are met -i.e., nearby rectum, bladder, and femoral heads do not exceed the recommended radiation dose limits
If the physician must utilize a plan that compromises target coverage or normal tissue dose constraints to levels not meeting the criteria above, then the plan will be scored as not meeting technical feasibility requirements.
Early Efficacy
Efficacy will be defined as the absence of biochemically detected (via PSA lab testing) prostate cancer or clinically detected prostate cancer at each interval follow-up visit (every three months for year one, then every 6 months for year two after treatment). "Absence of prostate cancer" is defined as no evidence of tumor recurrence by two methods:
No prostate cancer recurrence evident on the physical examination performed by the physician.
No rise in the PSA more than 2 ng/ml above the lowest PSA value ever obtained pre or post treatment. A rise in the PSA more than 2 ng/ml from a patient's lowest value is the standard definition for post-radiation PSA biochemical prostate cancer failure.
Number of Patients Who Experienced Late Toxicity
Late toxicity (defined as toxicity occuring >90 days after treatment) will be assessed with regular clinical exams and patient toxicity questionnaires.
Median Quality of Life Score
Median of quality of life score will be assessed with regular clinical exams and patient quality of life questionnaires (American Urologic Association Symptom Index score ranges from 0 to 35 with the higher scores indicating more severe, Sexual Health Inventory score ranges from 1 to 25 with 1 being severe and 25 being no signs, Extended Prostate Cancer Index Composite- Bowel, Extended Prostate Cancer Index Composite- Urinary, and Extended Prostate Cancer Index Composite- Sexual scales range from 1 (worst) to 100 (best)).

5. Study Description
Brief Summary
This study will investigate the safety, tolerability, and effectiveness of giving a higher dose to the part of the prostate which contains the cancer while giving a standard radiation dose to the entire prostate. The investigators have hypothesized that this treatment technique will effectively control the prostate cancer while minimizing the side effects.
Detailed Description
Objectives:
Primary
-Clinically assess the early toxicity of SBRT with integrated boost for clinically localized prostate cancer
Secondary
Determine the technical feasibility of stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) with integrated boost for clinically localized prostate cancer
Determine the treatment planning and dosimetric feasibility
Evaluate the treatment delivery quality assurance
Clinically assess early efficacy, late toxicity, and quality of life for patients receiving SBRT with integrated boost for clinically localized prostate cancer
Patients will undergo 5 total radiation treatments over 7-17 day period.
Patients will be asked to complete American Urological Association Symptom Index (AUA SI), Sexual Health Inventory of Men (SHIM), and the Expanded Prostate Index Composite (EPIC)questionnaires. The EPIC assesses bowel, urinary, and sexual function. These questionnaires will be completed at the following time points: Baseline, AUA SI will be collected on the last day of treatment, and every 3 months for the first year following the start of radiation, then every 6 months for year 2.
After completion of study therapy, patients are followed-up every 3 months for the first year, then every 6 months for year 2.
