73.8 Gy (all with 3DCRT), while 86 received WPRT at a

median dose of 50.4 Gy (45% by standard 3D box and 55%

by static field IMRT), plus a consequential 3D-CRT boost to

PB up to 75.6 Gy. The indication of both WPRT and of

adjuvant androgen deprivation (AAD), prescribed to 158

pts for a median of 14 months, was at the discretion of

each treating physician

Results

Median overall FU was 111 months. Owing to the gradual

introduction of WPRT over time, the cohort receiving

WPRT had a significantly shorter follow-up (90 vs 124

months, p<0.0001) and received significantly higher RT

dose (median 75.6 vs 73.8 Gy). All the remaining

prognostic variables were evenly distributed. At

univariable analysis SRT dose ≥75.6 Gy was the only

variable predictive of significantly increased 7-year bRFS

in the overall population and in the two subsets of pts with

PSA at SRT (PSA@SRT) ≤0.50 or >0.50 ng/mL. WPRT led to

a significant improvement in 7-year bRFS in the overall

population (84 vs 72%, p=0.02) and in the 144 pts with a

PSA at SRT >0.50 ng/mL (83% vs 64%, p=0.01). At

multivariable analysis (MVA) SRT dose ≤73.8 Gy,

pathologic stage ≥T3a, GS ≥7 and higher PSA@SRT, but not

WPRT, emerged as covariates independently predictive of

reduced post-SRT bRFS in the overall population. The

independent benefit deriving from higher SRT doses and

WPRT was confirmed in the 2 subsets of pts with PSA@SRT

≤ and >0.50 ng/mL, respectively. No benefit whatsoever

emerged from AAD (Fig 1).

In order to identify the subset benefiting most from WPRT

(Fig. 2) and dose-escalation, their roles were investigated

in the subset of 184 pts with at least 1 risk factor among

those individuated at MVA (GS ≥7, pT≥3a, and PSA at SRT

>0.50 ng/mL). In this subset MVA confirmed the

independent role of WPRT (HR 0.47, p=0.04) and SRT doses

≥75.6 Gy (HR 0.46, p=0.03).

Neither WPRT nor higher SRT doses led to any significant

increase of either acute or late toxicities.

Conclusion

Despite its retrospective nature, this study lends support

to the use of both WPRT and SRT doses ≥75.6 Gy in the

salvage setting in node-negative patients with ≥1 risk

factor among PSA at SRT >0.50 ng/mL, Gleason score ≥7

and pathologic stage ≥T3a.

Purpose or Objective

The aim of this study is to evaluate the long term

treatment results of two different fractionation schemes

and PSA bounce phenomenon in our patients treated with

robotic stereotactic body radiotherapy (rSBRT) for

prostate cancer.

Material and Methods

We evaluated the medical records of 106 patients who

were treated between June 2007 and June 2015 for

prostate cancer in our department with CyberKnife™.

D’Amico risk classification system (1998) was used to

group patients. In the low risk (LR) group (n=54) 20

patients received androgen blockade (AB) (for volume

reduction or else purposes). In the intermediate risk (IR)

group (n=52) 42 patients received neoadjuvant/adjuvant

AB. According to our institution’s treatment protocol

rSBRT was delivered in 5 fractions to a total dose of 36.5

Gy either sequentially (n=58) or every other day (n=48).

‘Cavanagh definition’ (≥0.2 ng/mL) was used to define

‘PSA bounce phenomenon’.

Results

Median follow up time was 56 months. Only one patient

died due to pulmonary thromboembolism. Two patients in

the LR group and 3 patients in the IR group had PSA

relapses. In the whole group 5 year biochemical relapse

free survival (BRFS) rate was 93.4% (LR; 97.1% vs. IR;

89.2%; p=0.6). Five year BFRS rate in patients treated with

sequential scheme was 92% compared to 100% for every

other day scheme (p=0.3). PSA bounce phenomenon was

observed in 17 patients (16%) and among them only one

patient had PSA relapse. Five year BRFS rate was 89% in

patients with PSA bounce phenomenon compared to 94.2%

in patients without bounce (p=0.9). There was no

difference in the incidence of PSA bounce for different

treatment schemes. All of the patients received the

planned rSBRT dose without any breaks in the treatment

schedule due to toxicity. Late grade III gastrointestinal

system toxicity was observed in 4 patients (3 sequential,

1 every other day scheme; p=0.6). No patients reported

late grade III genitourinary toxicity.

Conclusion

Our rSBRT treatment protocol was very well tolerated with

high rates of 5 year BRFS rates. PSA bounce phenomenon

may also be observed after rSBRT for prostate cancer. We

did not find a relation between PSA bounce and

biochemical relapse. The fractionation scheme of the

rSBRT in our protocol did not affect the treatment results

and toxicity.
