Official title
Vessel Sparing Prostate Radiation Therapy: Dose Limitation to Critical Erectile Structures (Corpus Cavernosum and Internal Pudendal Artery) by MRI Based Treatment Planning
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Prostate cancer patients have a number of excellent treatment options to consider, and quality of life following treatment is often a consideration in treatment choice. One critical quality of life concern for patients diagnosed with prostate cancer is sexual function. Previous studies point to a vascular mechanism of impotence post-radiation therapy, as opposed to a nerve-based mechanism following surgery. In this study, the critical vascular structures (internal pudendal artery and corpus cavernosum) are defined by MRI-based imaging and included in treatment planning for radiation treatments, hopefully preserving critical artery function. This study will collect erectile function preservation rates at 5-years post-vessel-sparing radiotherapy with or without aids using the patient reported using the simplified three-question erectile function scale.
