Conclusion

Compared to MRI delineated GTVs, 18F-Choline PET GTVs

are significantly different. This study found however that

increasing the PET scan acquisition time from 60 to 90

minutes did not improve the performance of GTV TVD in

comparison to MRI delineated GTV

Purpose or Objective

Hypofractionated stereotactic radiotherapy (SRT) is an

emerging technique in the treatment of localized prostate

carcinoma (LPC). Considering that α/β ratio prostate

cancer is very low (1.5), SRT is advantageous because

consent to deliver higher dose/fraction on target respect

conventional radiotherapy. In this study we reported our

initial experience with SRT using CyberKnife® System (CK)

in the treatment of LPC.

Material and Methods

From February 2013 to April 2016 ninety-six patients with

LPC, mean age 70,6 years, were treated with CK-SRT. All

patients were submitted to the eco-guided implants of 4

intraprostatic fiducial markers 7-10 days before the SRT in

order to follow, to detect and to correct the intrafraction

target movements. The fusion between CT scan and basal

RM was made in order to optimize the contouring for

treatment planning.

All patients were treated with SRT in 5 fractions of 7-7,25

Gy/fraction for a total dose of 35-36,25 Gy.

It was evaluated acute and late gastrointestinal and

genitourinary toxicity using RTOG scale, biochemical

control using mean decrease of PSA level during the

different phases of follow up.

In this study we have analyzed the results in the 77

patients with almost 3 months of follow up.

Results

All patients have completed CK SRT without severe

complication. Median follow up was 17 months. Three

patients died for non related cancer causes.

Gastrointestinal acute toxicity G2 for perineal pain and

rectal tenesmus was reported in only 13% and was

decreased in all patients. Genitourinary acute toxicity G2

for urgency and nicturia was reported in only 4% and G1

for dysuria in 61% of cases which persist in 27,3% of

patients. (Table 1)

All patients obtained biochemical response with decrease

of PSA. The PSA drop between the start of the therapy and

at 21 months of follow up, was significant with p<0,01

(p=0,00001)

Conclusion

In our experience CK-SRT seem to be safe and reliable in

the LPC. No severe toxicities were reported and the

patients were very compliant. Careful patient selection is

critical to achieve maximum effectiveness by CK SRT.

More patients and longer follow up are necessary in order

to evaluate the real advantage of SRT respect to standard

fractionation in terms of overall survival, biochemical free

survival and late toxicity.

Purpose or Objective

Prostate cancer is one of the most common cancers in the

world, and the population of patients with intermediate-

to high-risk localized prostate cancer (PCa) occupies a

large proportion. The results of treatment after

hypofractionated radiotherapy only have been reported

from several small randomized trials. Therefore, we

pooled the relevant data and conducted a meta-analysis

to compare clinical outcomes of hypofractionated
