  Purpose

RATIONALE: Diagnostic procedures, such as MRI, may help measure oxygen levels in tumor cells. It may also help doctors predict a patient's response to treatment and help plan the best treatment.

PURPOSE: This clinical trial is studying how well MRI works in assessing hypoxia in patients with localized prostate cancer undergoing stereotactic body radiation therapy.

Primary Outcome Measures:
  • Status of global hypoxia within the prostate as assessed by blood-oxygen-level-dependent and tissue-oxygen-level-dependent MRI [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Tumor vasculature and metabolism within the prostate as assessed by dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI and magnetic resonance spectroscopic imaging [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Correlation of prostate and normal tissue hypoxia before treatment with clinical outcomes after treatment [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Estimated Enrollment: 20
Study Start Date: September 2009
Estimated Primary Completion Date: September 2010 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure)
Detailed Description:

OBJECTIVES:

  • To characterize the status of global hypoxia within the prostate before stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) as assessed by blood-oxygen-level-dependent and tissue-oxygen-level-dependent MRI.
  • To characterize tumor vasculature and metabolism within the prostate before SBRT as assessed by dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI and magnetic resonance spectroscopic imaging, respectively.
  • Correlate prostate and normal tissue hypoxia before SBRT with clinical outcomes (toxicity and biochemical [PSA] control) after SBRT.

OUTLINE: Within 1-3 weeks before beginning stereotactic body radiotherapy, patients undergo T2-weighted anatomic MRI, magnetic resonance spectroscopic imaging, blood-oxygen-level-dependent and tissue-oxygen-level-dependent MRI, and dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI.
