About this trial
This is an interventional treatment trial for Prostate Cancer focused on measuring localized, High risk, Prostate Cancer, Randomized, Cryotherapy, Cryoablation, Adjuvant, Androgen Deprivation Therapy, Hormone therapy, ADT
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
- Age>20 years
- Histopathology proven prostate adenocarcinoma
- Non-metastatic localized disease
- Prostate cancer is deemed high-risk for recurrence(PSA>20 ng/ml, Gleason score>=8, or clinical staging>=T2c)
- Subjects have undergone prostate cryoablation as the definitive treatment prior to enrolling the study
- Subjects who have not been treated with any definitive treatments for prostate cancer, including radical prostatectomy or definitive radiotherapy. However, those who have undergone focal prostate cryoablation and have cancer recurrence are still eligible.
- Subjects may or may not have received neoadjuvant androgen-deprivation therapy (ADT) in the forms of either castration (medical) and/or antiandrogens. Surgical castration (orchiectomy) is not allowed.
- Subjects are willing to sign the informed consent and agree to comply with the study procedures
Exclusion Criteria:
- Those who have been treated with > 8 weeks (collectively if not continuously) of neoadjuvant ADT prior to screening.
- Subjects who have other cancer that is deemed not cured or are known less than 5 years except for basal cell carcinoma of the skin
- Other conditions the investigators think may affect subject compliance or safety

5. Study Description
Brief Summary
This is an open-label randomized clinical study comparing primary prostate cryoablation alone (No-ADT group) with cryoablation plus short-term adjuvant androgen-deprivation therapy (Adj-ADT group) in the treatment of patients with high-risk localized prostate cancer.
Detailed Description
Subjects (N=182) who have high-risk prostate cancer and have undergone primary prostate cryotherapy will be screened and randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive either adjuvant ADT (Adj-ADT) or No-ADT until disease progression. Screening and randomization will be done within four weeks after cryoablation. Only those who are assigned to Adj-ADT will receive ADT for a total of 12 months. PSA will be checked every 3 months in the first year after Cryo and every 6 months thereafter. Long-term follow-up parameters include serum PSA and protocol-mandated biopsies (at 36 months after Cryo, irrespective of PSA levels if recurrence has not been documented). For-cause biopsy will also be done if post-Cryo PSA elevation reaches the Phoenix criteria (Nadir + 2 ng/ml) or when the treating physician thinks it necessary to document tumor recurrence.
