Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Participants must have biopsy proven locally recurrent prostate cancer. Biopsy will be performed by a Urologist. Participants will have PSMA-PET scan and MRI in Radiology and Nuclear Medicine by experienced Radiologists in the Royal North Shore Hospital before starting stereotactic radiotherapy. Participants will require fiducial markers inserted in the prostate and may require hydrogel insertion depending on the location of the recurrence. If these are required, it will be done by experienced radiation oncologists. Fiducial markers insertion involves inserting three gold markers into the prostate. It will be used to locate the prostate accurately during radiation treatment. Hydrogel is a temporary gel being injected into the space between the prostate and rectum to reduce the dose of radiation received by the rectum to minimise side effects from the treatment. There will be three groups of participants, each group will receive different level of radiation dose to test the safety of increasing radiotherapy dose. Group 1 will receive 36 grays (radiation dose unit) in 6 treatments. Group 2 will receive 38 grays in 6 treatments and group 3 will receive 40 grays in 6 treatments. The incremental dose escalation will cease if any excess acute or late grade 3 toxicity. Focal Stereotactic body radiation treatment (SBRT) will be delivered two to three times per week, every second day. The number of treatments per week will depend on the day of the week you start your treatment (ie ,if you start your radiotherapy on Wednesday, you will have two treatments that week etc). You will have a total of 6 treatments. Each radiotherapy session will take 30 minutes. Patients will be reviewed weekly or second weekly. Toxicity will be recorded. A Safety Committee will be formed containing multi-disciplinary team members. All serious adverse events will be reported to the Principal Investigator and HREC within 24 hours.

Outcomes
Primary outcome [1] 300412 0
Examine the feasibility of focal stereotactic body radiation treatment (SBRT) for locally recurrent prostate cancer. Outcome will be assessed by reviewing toxicity weekly or second weekly and whether dose escalation can be achieved.
Timepoint [1] 300412 0
At weekly or second weekly review and after each group of patients have completed radiotherapy treatment
Primary outcome [2] 300471 0
Examine the safety of focal stereotactic body radiation treatment (SBRT) for locally recurrent prostate cancer. Outcome will be assessed by reviewing toxicity weekly or second weekly and at the end of each level of dose escalation.
Timepoint [2] 300471 0
At weekly or second weekly review and after each group of patients have completed radiotherapy treatment
Primary outcome [3] 300472 0
Examine the toxicity of focal stereotactic body radiation treatment (SBRT) for locally recurrent prostate cancer. Outcome will be assessed by reviewing toxicity weekly or second weekly, the number of grade 3 toxicity and whether dose escalation can be achieved .
Timepoint [3] 300472 0
At weekly or second weekly review and after each group of patients have completed radiotherapy treatment
Secondary outcome [1] 329921 0
tolerability of conservation dose escalation in this cohort of patients. Outcome will be assessed weekly/second weekly for toxicity and at the end of each dose level of escalation.
Timepoint [1] 329921 0
After each group of patients have completed radiotherapy treatment and at 12 and 24 months after completion of radiotherapy to determine early treatment success or failure . After the 24 months follow-up, patients will have routine follow-up 6 monthly for 1 year and then yearly until 10 years post treatment as per current practice.. Study outcomes will only be collected for the first 2 years after treatment.

Dose escalation. Radiotherapy dose will only increases if the twelve patients in each group have not experienced grade 3 acute or late toxicity.

Statistical methods / analysis
This is a pilot study to assess feasibility and toxicity. It is powered to ensure a less than 10% acute grade 3 toxicity rate at any of the three dose levels.
