PURPOSE: Hypoxia is a well-known major factor contributing to the radioresistance of prostate cancer, which could be counteracted by increasing the dose. This study aimed to demonstrate the dosimetric feasibility of a dose-painting radiation therapy plan for prostate cancer, using a novel ring gantry system, based on the localization of tumoral and hypoxic areas.
METHODS AND MATERIALS: Seven patients from the Programme d'Action Intégré de Recherche-prostate study, who underwent external-beam radiation therapy for intermediate-risk prostate cancer and exhibited pretherapeutic fluromisonodazole positron emission tomography (PET) uptake in the tumor, were selected. The gross tumor volume (GTV) was delineated on the magnetic resonance imaging, and the hypoxic region within the planning target volume was delineated based on fluromisonodazole PET uptake. Intensity modulated radiation therapy planning was performed based on 3 different prescriptions: standard fractionation (77 Gy in 35 fractions to the planning target volume), with an integrated boost of 95 Gy and 118 Gy in 35 fractions to the GTV and the hypoxic region, moderate hypofractionation (60 Gy in 20 fractions) with a boost of 67 Gy and 91 Gy to the GTV and the hypoxic region, and high hypofractionation (40 Gy in 5 fractions) with a boost of 50 Gy to the GTV and as high as possible to the hypoxic region. Planning was performed on the research version of the RefleXion treatment planning system.
RESULTS: We achieved the prescribed dose in all 7 patients while respecting the usual dose limits for organs at risk.
CONCLUSIONS: This study demonstrated the dosimetric feasibility of dose escalation in both the tumor and hypoxic regions in patients with prostate cancer using the RefleXion treatment planning system, without compromising the dose limits for organs at risks.
