Summary
This trial is designed to test whether eradicating oligometastases (a small number of cancerous cells that have spread from the original tumor) with SBRT (a type of radiation therapy) can delay disease progression and postpone second-line systemic therapies in patients with castration-resistant prostate cancer.
Who is the study for?
Men aged 18+ with castration-resistant prostate cancer and oligometastatic recurrence, who are on or will continue androgen deprivation therapy. They must have a low testosterone level, up to 5 metastases amenable to SBRT, no prior chemotherapy for prostate cancer, an ECOG performance status of 0-2 or Karnofsky >70%, and agree to use contraception. Exclusions include severe cardiovascular conditions, recent seizures or strokes, certain blood pressure levels, absorption disorders, recent major surgery or opiate analgesic use.
What is being tested?
This trial is testing whether adding Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy (SBRT) to the standard care (LHRH agonist plus Enzalutamide) can delay disease progression in men with oligometastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either the standard treatment alone or combined with SBRT.
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects include hot flashes from hormone therapy; fatigue; skin reactions at radiation sites; gastrointestinal symptoms like nausea; potential urinary issues due to radiation; increased risk of fractures if bone metastases are present.
