Veterans Affairs Seamless Phase II/III Randomized Trial of STAndard Systemic theRapy With or Without PET-directed Local Therapy for Oligometastatic pRosTate Cancer
Sponsor: VA Office of Research and Development
Summary
This is a prospective, open-label, multi-center seamless phase II to phase III randomized clinical trial designed to compare SST with or without PET-directed local therapy in improving the castration-resistant prostate cancer-free survival (CRPC-free survival) for Veterans with oligometastatic prostate cancer. Oligometastasis will be defined as 1-10 sites of metastatic disease based on the clinical determination of the LSI which incorporates all imaging, clinical, and pathologic data available.

Conditions
Interventions
PET-directed Local Therapy using Surgery
Surgery will be used to treat metastases.
PET-directed Local Therapy using Radiation
Radiation therapy will be used to treat metastases. Radiation options include: 1. Stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) using 1-10 fractions 2. Conventionally fractionated radiotherapy using elective nodal radiotherapy and a simultaneous integrated boost to involved nodes The selection of the form of metastasis-directed radiotherapy for each metastasis will be determined using shared decision-making between the treating physician and the Veteran.
Salvage Local Therapy for locally recurrent disease
For Veterans who have a local recurrence in addition to oligorecurrent metastatic lesions, they will undergo salvage local therapy using brachytherapy, SBRT, surgery, cryotherapy or HIFU. The selection of modality of salvage local therapy will be determined using shared decision-making between the treating physician and Veteran.

Prostate-directed Radiation for De novo oligometastatic prostate cancer
Veterans in ARM 1 will receive prostate-directed RT only and NO treatment to any nodal or distant metastatic sites. Acceptable dose/fractionations include 55 Gy in 20 fractions and 36 Gy in 6 fractions. Veterans in ARM 2 should receive prostate-directed local therapy using radiotherapy or radical prostatectomy in addition to PET-directed local therapy to metastases.
