BED Calculations External Beam Radiation Therapy / HDR –BED = nd [ 1 + (d/ α/β) ] Low Dose Rate Permanent Decaying Implants –BED = (Ro/ λ) { 1 + [ Ro/(μ+ λ)(α/β)] } Definitions of parameters n = # fractions d = daily dose Ro = initial dose rate of implant λ = radioactive decay constant = 0.693/T 1/2 T 1/2 = radioactive half-life of isotope μ = repair rate constant = 0.693/t 1/2 t 1/2 = tissue repair half-time

Calculating BED For Low Risk CaP Monotherapy Treatment Regimens Biologically Equivalent Dose BED = D (1 + d/alpha beta ratio) D = total dose d = dose/fraction alpha/beta ratio = 1.5 for prostate 3 for late effects 10 for acute effects 81Gy IMRT/ 45fx / 9 weeks ( BED 1.5 = 178.2, BED 3 = 129.6 ) HDR monoTx @ 9.5Gy X 4fx ( BED 1.5 = 278.7, BED 3 = 158.3 ) HDR monoTx @ 8.55Gy X 4fx ( BED 1.5 = 229.1, BED 3 = 131.7 ) HDR monoTx @ 7.25Gy X 6fx ( BED 1.5 = 253.7, BED 3 = 148.6 ) Cyberknife monoTx @ 7Gy X 5fx ( BED 1.5 = 198.3, BED 3 = 116.7 ) Cyberknife monoTx @ 7.25Gy X 5fx ( BED 1.5 = 211.5, BED 3 = 123.9 ) NCH Hospital, Naples, FL

Dose Calculations for Cyberknife Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy For CK, one can fractionate the therapy yet remain convenient and non-invasive for the patient CK doses are most like HDR, since the dose/fraction, total doses and time factors are similar SHARP trial from Virginia Mason Hospital with good results (33.5Gy/5fx) Thus, since we have intermediate and long term results with HDR, CK appears to be a well founded treatment option

22
Acute Toxicity Urinary hesitancy, urgency, frequency (Day 3-10) Tenesmus/ rectal discomfort (Day 5-8) Diarrhea (Day 5-8) Rx: Flomax Lomotil Decadron Anusol-HC supp.
23
Acute Toxicity Scoring (IPSS/RAS/SHIM) Baseline, days 2 and 5, post-treatment day 10, 1 month and 4 months Acute effects generally return to baseline by 1 months Urinary symptoms more marked in patients with IPSS baseline scores >20 No urethral strictures/ persistent rectal bleeding observed

Summary Cyberknife is a new and innovative treatment delivery technique for prostate cancer. Cyberknife monotherapy produces an early decline of PSA’s in low risk patients. The acute toxicity of Cyberknife monotherapy is very minimal compared to other radiation treatments. Cyberknife therapy is a noninvasive and convenient treatment option for patients with early stage prostate cancer. Prostate cancer patients treated with Cyberknife should continued to be enrolled and followed in research protocols, and the data collectively analyzed.
