Hyaluronic acid spacer in focal prostate reirradiation: A single centre experience.
The optimal management of locally recurrent prostate cancer after curative radiotherapy is still unknown. In this study, we evaluated the preliminary results of reirradiation using stereotactic body radiotherapy for locally recurrent prostate cancer after initial definitive local radiotherapy.
Between April 2016 and February 2019, 11 patients with recurrent disease at the previously irradiated prostate were treated. Local recurrence was detected by radiological with or without functional imaging modalities including prostate multiparametric/pelvic MRI or positron-emission tomography-computerised tomography with (68Ga)-labelled prostate-specific membrane antigen performed after rising prostate specific antigen serum level during follow-up. All patients received stereotactic body radiotherapy to the recurrent nodule to a total dose of 30Gy in five fractions. Hyaluronic acid spacer was injected between prostate and rectum in seven patients to decrease the rectal dose. Acute toxicity was evaluated by using Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events version 4.0, and late toxicity was evaluated by using Radiation Therapy Oncology Group/European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer late radiation morbidity scoring schema.
At the diagnosis, the median age was 64 years, and the mean prostate specific antigen serum concentration was 17.7ng/mL. The median interval time between local recurrence and initial definitive radiotherapy was 63 months. Mean prostate specific antigen concentration nadir value during follow-up was 0.43ng/mL. With a median follow up of 19 months, three patients developed either local or distant relapse. One patient had grade 3 acute rectal toxicity, and one patient had grade 2 late urinary toxicity. We did not observe any acute or late toxicity due to hyaluronic acid spacer injection.
Reirradiation after local recurrence following initial definitive radiotherapy together with hyaluronic acid spacer use seems to be effective and safe.

Interim Results of a Prospective Prostate-Specific Membrane Antigen-Directed Focal Stereotactic Reirradiation Trial for Locally Recurrent Prostate Cancer.
To report the feasibility, toxicity, and preliminary outcomes (metabolic and biochemical) of 68Ga-prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT)-directed focal prostate reirradiation using linear accelerator (LINAC)-based stereotactic body radiation treatment (SBRT).
From March 2016 to March 2019, 25 patients were enrolled in a prospective single institution trial (ACTRN12617000035325). Eligibility criteria included patients with biopsy proven isolated prostate recurrence after definitive irradiation, with concordant multiparametric MRI and 68Ga-PSMA PET/CT findings, and a prostate-specific antigen of less than 15 ng/mL at the time of recurrence. The study included a sequential dose escalation component with the first 18 patients receiving 36 Gy in 6 fractions on alternate days with subsequent patients receiving 38 Gy in 6 fractions assuming acceptable toxicity.
Median age was 72 years (range, 62-83) with a median time between first radiation treatment and salvage SBRT of 8.3 years (range, 4.5- 13.6). Median prostate-specific antigen at reirradiation was 4.1 (range, 1.1-16.6). The median follow-up was 25 months (range, 13-46). Acute grade 1 and 2 genitourinary (GU) toxicity occurred in 6 (24%) and 1 (4%) men, respectively. Acute grade 1 gastrointestinal (GI) toxicity occurred in 8% with one acute grade 3 GI toxicity (4%) due to a rectal ulcer overlying the hydrogel. Late grade 1 and 2 GU toxicity occurred in 28% and 4%. Late grade 1 GI toxicity occurred in 8% with no grade 2 or greater toxicity. Twenty-four patients have undergone per-protocol 12-month 68Ga-PSMA PET/CT, of which 23 (92%) demonstrated a complete metabolic response. Biochemical freedom from failure was 80% at 2 years with 3 out of 4 of the biochemical failures exhibiting recurrent local disease.
PSMA-directed salvage focal reirradiation to the prostate using linear accelerator-based SBRT is feasible and safe. Toxicity was low, with very favorable short term local and biochemical control in a carefully selected cohort of patients.

Reirradiation of Locally Recurrent Prostate Cancer With Volumetric Modulated Arc Therapy.
This study explores the efficacy and safety of reirradiation with modern radiation therapy techniques in patients previously irradiated for prostate cancer and affected by local relapse of disease.
Patients affected by previously irradiated prostate cancer were enrolled in this reirradiation study if they had a biochemical relapse and a 11C-choline positron emission tomography scan revealing the presence of a local recurrence of disease. Reirradiation consisted of a stereotactic treatment delivered by image guided radiation therapy-volumetric modulated arc therapy with flattening filter-free technology in 5 daily fractions.
Twenty-three patients underwent reirradiation to the prostate, prostatic bed, or prostate and local recurrence. Re-treatment consisted of a median total dose of 25 Gy in 5 fractions. A biochemical response was observed in all cases. Acute toxicity was mainly genitourinary (GU) grade 1 to 2 (n = 13; 56.5%). One patient (4.3%) had grade 3 hematuria. A grade 1 GU late toxicity was registered in 4 patients (17.4%) and grade 3 in 1 patient (4.3%, urethral obstruction). Gastrointestinal toxicity was negligible. Regression analysis showed that only a short elapsed time in months from primary radiation therapy was significantly correlated with acute GU toxicity. After a median follow-up of 33 months (range, 5-58 months), the median biochemical recurrence-free survival was 19 months, and the 2-year biochemical recurrence-free survival (BRFS) was 41.7%. Median local control was 30 months; the 2-year local control rate was 58.1%.
Reirradiation of patients with prostate cancer who underwent previous radiation therapy is a valuable option that can be safely considered to delay the beginning of hormonal treatment.

Robotic image-guided stereotactic radiotherapy, for isolated recurrent primary, lymph node or metastatic prostate cancer.
To evaluate the outcome of robotic CyberKnife (Accuray, Sunnyvale, CA)-based stereotactic radiotherapy (CBK-SRT) for isolated recurrent primary, lymph node, or metastatic prostate cancer.
Between May 2007 and December 2009, 34 consecutive patients/38 lesions were treated (15 patients reirradiated for local recurrence [P], 4 patients reirradiated for anastomosis recurrence [A], 16 patients treated for single lymph node recurrence [LN], and 3 patients treated for single metastasis [M]). In all but 4 patients, [(11)C]choline positron emission tomography/computed tomography was performed. CBK-SRT consisted of reirradiation and first radiotherapy in 27 and 11 lesions, respectively. The median CBK-SRT dose was 30 Gy in 4.5 fractions (P, 30 Gy in 5 fractions; A, 30 Gy in 5 fractions; LN, 33 Gy in 3 fractions; and M, 36 Gy in 3 fractions). In 18 patients (21 lesions) androgen deprivation was added to CBK-SRT (median duration, 16.6 months).
The median follow-up was 16.9 months. Acute toxicity included urinary events (3 Grade 1, 2 Grade 2, and 2 Grade 3 events) and rectal events (1 Grade 1 event). Late toxicity included urinary events (3 Grade 1, 2 Grade 2, and 2 Grade 3 events) and rectal events (1 Grade 1 event and 1 Grade 2 event). Biochemical response was observed in 32 of 38 evaluable lesions. Prostate-specific antigen stabilization was seen for 4 lesions, and in 2 cases prostate-specific antigen progression was reported. The 30-month progression-free survival rate was 42.6%. Disease progression was observed for 14 lesions (5, 2, 5, and 2 in Groups P, A, LN, and M respectively). In only 3 cases, in-field progression was seen. At the time of analysis (May 2010), 19 patients are alive with no evidence of disease and 15 are alive with disease.
CyberKnife-based stereotactic radiotherapy is a feasible approach for isolated recurrent primary, lymph node, or metastatic prostate cancer, offering excellent in-field tumor control and a low toxicity profile. Further investigation is warranted to identify the patients who benefit most from this treatment modality. The optimal combination with androgen deprivation should also be defined.
