was observed in 7 patients (30%) with a G2 urinary

frequency observed in two of these patients (9%); in only

one patient a G2 urinary retention was observed and it was

treated with transient catheterization and oral and rectal

medications. No acute gastrointestinal ≥ G2 or genito-

urinary ≥ G3 toxicity was found. No other toxicities were

observed. At a median FUP of 16 months (range 7-27, from

the time of diagnosis), only one patient presented an

outfield relapse of disease, that was treated with

androgen deprivation therapy (ADT). No other biochemical

recurrence or progression of disease was observed.

Conclusion

Preliminary findings show that our schedule

of hypofractionated radiotherapy, delivered with FFF-

VMAT and gated using beacon transponders, is a valid

option for intermediate risk PC. Early results in terms of

feasibility, toxicity profile and disease control are

encouraging to warrant the pursuance of the study.

Purpose or Objective

To report preliminary results, in terms of acute toxicity,

of an innovative hypofractionated treatment with

concomitant boost to the dominant lesion for patients

with early stage prostate cancer (PCa).

Material and Methods

This prospective phase II trial, supported by AIRC

(Associazione Italiana per la Ricerca sul Cancro), started

in June 2015. Patients with low- and intermediate-risk PCa

who met the inclusion criteria underwent

hypofractionated radiotherapy (RT) to the prostate with a

total dose of 36.25 Gy in 5 fractions (biologically

equivalent to a 90.6 Gy, considering a α/β ratio of 1.5 Gy)

and a simultaneous integrated boost (SIB) to the dominant

intraprostatic lesion (DIL) of 37.5 Gy in 5 fractions

(biologically equivalent to a 96.4 Gy, considering a α/β

ratio of 1.5 Gy). The DIL was identified by a

multiparamentric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI)

co-registered with planning CT. The treatment was

delivered using a Varian Trilogy

TM

with RapidArc

®

technology. Toxicity was assessed according to CTCAE v4.0

and RTOG/EORTC criteria. The preliminary evaluation of

the first 13 patients was required to assess the feasibility

of the treatment before completing the enrollment of 65

patients.

Results

The first 13 patients completed the treatment between

June 2015 and February 2016. Patients’ characteristics are

reported in Table 1. An example of dosimetric distribution

is shown in Figure 1. With a median clinical follow-up of

5.9 months, ranging from 1 to 6 months, no grade 3 or 4

acute toxicity was reported. At the end of RT, only one

patient experienced G2 gastrointestinal (GI) toxicity, and

4 patients had G1 genitourinary (GU) events. After one

month, G1 GI toxicity was reported in 2 patients and G1

GU in 4 patients; no toxicity higher than G2 has been

recorded. At 6 months from the end of treatment, 8

patients have been evaluated and no events higher than

G2 have been experienced: 1 patient had G1 GI toxicity

and 3 patients had G1 GU toxicity.

Conclusion

Up to October 2016, 42 patients have completed the

treatment. More mature results seem to confirm the

presented preliminary ones. Our preliminary data show

the feasibility of an extremely hypofractionated schedule

with concomitant boost on the mpMRI-identified DIL. The

higher number of patients expected for the trial and a

longer follow-up are needed to confirm these results. The

secondary endpoints of the study, namely the evaluation

of late toxicity, patient free survival, overall survival,

quality of life and pattern of failure will be investigated

when more mature follow-up data will be available.

Purpose or Objective

Prostate cancer (PCa) is the second most common male

cancer. The prognosis for patients with a diagnosis of high-

risk PCa is poor. No consensus exists on the most effective

treatment. In the last decade, hadrontherapy with carbon

ions has been considered a suitable strategy for high-risk

PCa, in terms of the dose delivery with a resulting
