Trial Outcomes & Findings for Hypofractionation Proton Beam Therapy With Concurrent Treatment of Prostate and Pelvic Nodes for Prostate Cancer (NCT NCT02874014)

NCT ID: NCT02874014

Last Updated: 2025-08-22

Results Overview

Toxicity will be defined as an adverse event possibly, probably, or definitely related to proton beam therapy. A late GI or GU toxicity will be defined as a GI or GU toxicity that occurs between 3 months and 2 years from the completion of proton beam therapy. All patients meeting the eligibility criteria who have signed a consent form and have begun treatment will be evaluable for late toxicity, with the exception of patients determined to be a major violation.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 5 years post proton beam therapy

Disease-free survival is defined as the time from registration until the time of the first occurrence of biochemical failure, local recurrence, regional recurrence, distant metastases, or death due to any cause. The distribution of disease-free survival will be estimated using the method of Kaplan-Meier.
