Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Ideal candidates include adult males over 18 with histologically confirmed prostate adenocarcinoma, ranging from low to limited high-risk classifications.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients with advanced prostate cancer stages, significant comorbidities, or those who have undergone recent prostate procedures may not benefit from this study.

What this trial studies
The Proseven trial is a prospective interventional study aimed at evaluating the toxicity and efficacy of MR-guided stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) for prostate cancer. Patients will receive treatment in five daily fractions over a condensed treatment period of seven days, with a simultaneous integrated boost delivered to any dominant lesions. The study focuses on assessing acute gastrointestinal and genitourinary toxicity using established clinical criteria, measured up to three months post-treatment. This innovative approach not only aims to improve treatment outcomes but also enhances patient convenience through a shorter overall treatment time.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this treatment could provide a more effective and convenient option for patients with prostate cancer.
How similar studies have gone: Other studies have shown promise with similar MR-guided radiotherapy approaches, indicating potential for success in this novel application.
