Patients with Grade Group (GG) 2 or 3 prostate cancer are often ineligible for active surveillance (AS) or experience early disease progression on AS requiring radical therapy. We investigated whether focal therapy can produce durable oncologic outcomes and preserve urinary and sexual function. METHODS: Men with MRI-visible intermediate risk prostate cancer (PSA ≤20 ng/mL, GG2 or 3, stage ≤T2) and no prior cancer-directed treatment were eligible for this multicenter Phase IIb study (NCT01657942). Focal MRgFUS was delivered to the index lesion, with the targeted region contoured to include the MRI-visible lesion and up to 10 mm margin of normal appearing tissue. Concurrent GG1 prostate cancer foci were untreated. Safety (adverse events reported up to 24-months), oncologic outcomes (MRI-targeted systematic prostate biopsy at 6-and 24-months in all men), and genitourinary functional outcomes were assessed. RESULTS: 101 men were treated from May 4, 2017 to December 21, 2018 at 8 healthcare centers. Median age and PSA were 63 years and 5.7 ng/mL, respectively. Percentage of men treated with GG2 and 3 prostate cancer were 78% and 22%, respectively. No serious treatment-related adverse events were reported at 24-months. Ninety-six men (95%) had no evidence of GG ≥2 prostate cancer in the treated area at 6 months and 74 men (84%) had no evidence of GG ≥2 prostate cancer in the treated area at 24 months. International Index of Erectile Function-15 (IIEF-15) erectile function scores and lower urinary tract symptoms, assessed by International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS), were similar at baseline and 24-months (Table 1). No patients reported stress urinary incontinence requiring pad-use at 24-months. CONCLUSIONS: MRgFUS focal therapy using real-time MR thermometry has favorable quality of life outcomes compared to radical prostatectomy and demonstrates durable oncologic outcomes for men with GG 2 and GG 3 prostate cancer based on 6- and 24-month biopsy. These data support a randomized controlled trial in men with intermediate risk prostate cancer seeking to avoid radical whole-gland treatment.
