Oral Docetaxel (ModraDoc/r) in Combination With Hormonal Treatment and Radiation Therapy in High-risk Prostate Cancer (DOP)
Prostatic Neoplasms
About this trial
This is an interventional treatment trial for Prostatic Neoplasms focused on measuring High risk prostate cancer, >T2cN+M0
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
- Histologically proven prostate cancer.
All eligible patients have hormone naïve non-metastatic node positive high risk prostate cancer. Node positive cancer will be defined as radiological demonstration of more than four pelvic lymph node(s) consisting of bean shaped lymph node(s) with a short axis of minimal 10 mm and/or round lymph node(s) with a minimal size of 8 mm on PSMA, MRI or CT scan.
PSMA-scans or PET-Choline scans may be used, but are not obligated. Since the use of the PSMA scan is significantly increased in current clinical practice and the chance of false positive results is considered very low in patients with more than 4 positive lymph nodes, histological confirmation of positive lymph nodes is not required for inclusion if more than 4 pathological nodes are seen with the PSMA, MRI or CT scan
- High risk prostate cancer will be defined as node positive with all of the following primary tumour characteristics: Tumour stage ≥cT2c and Gleason score ≥4+3, any PSA
- Age ≥ 18 years
- No signs of metastatic disease on standard diagnostic scans.
- Normal serum testosterone levels prior to treatment
Adequate haematological, renal and hepatic functions
- Haemoglobin ≥ 6.0 mmol/l
- ANC of ≥ 1.5 x 109 /L
- Platelet count of ≥ 100 x 109 /L
- Hepatic function as defined by serum bilirubin ≤ 1.5 x ULN, ALAT and ASAT ≤ 2.5 x ULN
- Renal function as defined by serum creatinine ≤ 1.5 x ULN or creatinine clearance ≥ 50 ml/min (by Cockcroft-Gault formula).
- WHO performance status of 0-2
- Able and willing to undergo blood sampling for PK and PD analysis;
- Life expectancy ≥ 3 months allowing adequate follow up of toxicity evaluation and antitumor activity;
- Able and willing to swallow oral medication
- Able and willing to give written informed consent;
Exclusion Criteria:
- Any treatment with investigational drugs, chemotherapy or immunotherapy within 30 days prior to receiving the first dose of investigational treatment; Patients may be on ADT as long as this is has not been longer than 4 weeks prior the start of the radiotherapy.
- Patients who have had prior pelvic radiation therapy
- Patients who have had prior treatment with taxanes
- TURP within 3 months before start of the study
- Patients who have had a prostatectomy.
- Any contra-indication for MRI
- Major difficulties for marker implantation
- Unreliable contraceptive methods. Men enrolled in this trial must agree to use a reliable contraceptive method throughout the study (adequate contraceptive methods are: condom, sterilization)
- Unresolved (> grade 1) toxicities of previous chemotherapy, excluding alopecia.
- Uncontrolled infectious disease or known Human Immunodeficiency Virus HIV-1 or HIV-2 type patients;
- Patients with a known history of hepatitis B or C;
- Bowel obstructions or motility disorders that may influence the resorption of drugs as judged by the treating physician
- Concomitant use of MDR and CYP3A modulating drugs such as Ca+- entry blockers (verapamil, dihydropyridines), cyclosporine, quinidine, tamoxifen, megestrol and grapefruit juice, concomitant use of HIV medications, other protease inhibitors, (non) nucleoside analoga, or St. John's wort.
- Pre-existing neuropathy greater than NCI-CTCAE v4.03 grade 1.
- Patients with known alcoholism, drug addiction and/or psychiatric of physiological condition which in the opinion of the investigator would impair study compliance; Evidence of any other disease, neurological or metabolic dysfunction, physical examination finding or laboratory finding giving reasonable suspicion of a disease or condition that contraindicates the use of an investigational drug or puts the patient at high risk for treatment-related complications.
