Study Type – Therapy (case series) Level of Evidence 4 What’s known on the subject ? and What does the study add? Transrectal High‐Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) ablation has been used as a minimally invasive treatment for localized prostate cancer for 15 years. Five‐year disease‐free survival rates of 66–78% have been reported, challenging the results of external‐beam radiation therapy. Usually, a 6‐mm safety margin is used in the apex to preserve the urinary sphincter and potency. The influence of this 6‐mm margin on the results of the treatment has never been assessed. This retrospective study of a cohort of 99 patients who underwent systematic biopsy 3–6 months after HIFU ablation for prostate cancer (with a 6‐mm safety margin in the apex) shows that post‐HIFU residual cancer is found more frequently in the apex. Therefore, new strategies improving the prostate destruction at the apex while preserving the urinary continence need to be found.

OBJECTIVE

? To evaluate whether the location (apex/midgland/base) of prostate cancer influences the risk of incomplete transrectal high‐intensity focused ultrasonography (HIFU) ablation.

PATIENTS AND METHODS

? We retrospectively studied 99 patients who underwent prostate cancer HIFU ablation (Ablatherm; EDAP, Vaulx‐en‐Velin, France) with a 6‐mm safety margin at the apex, and had systematic biopsies 3–6 months after treatment. ? Locations of positive pre‐ and post‐HIFU sextants were compared. ? The present study included two analyses. First, sextants negative before and positive after treatment were recoded as positive/positive, hypothesizing that cancer had been missed at pretreatment biopsy. Second, patients with such sextants were excluded.

RESULTS

? Pre‐HIFU biopsies found cancer in all patients and in 215/594 sextants (36.2%); 55 (25.6%) positive sextants were in the apex, 86 (40%) in the midgland and 74 (34.4%) in the base. ? After treatment, residual cancer was found in 36 patients (36.4%) and 50 sextants (8.4%); 30 (60%) positive sextants were in the apex, 12 (24%) in the midgland and eight (16%) in the base. ? Both statistical analyses found that the locations of the positive sextants before and after HIFU ablation were significantly different (P < 0.001), with a higher proportion of positive apical sextants after treatment. ? At the first analysis, the mean (95% confidence interval) probability for a sextant to remain positive after HIFU ablation was 8.8% (3.5–20.3%) in the base, 12.7% (5.8–25.9%) in the midgland and 41.7% (27.2–57.89%) in the apex. ? At the second analysis, these same probabilities were 5.9% (1.9–17%), 9.9% (3.9–23.2%) and 27.3% (13.7–47%), respectively.

CONCLUSION

? When a 6‐mm apical safety margin is used, residual cancer after HIFU ablation is found significantly more frequently in the apex.  相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the biochemical disease-free survival (DFS), predictors of clinical outcome and morbidity of patients with localized prostate cancer treated with high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU), a noninvasive treatment that induces complete coagulative necrosis of a tumour at depth through the intact skin. PATIENTS AND METHODS: In all, 63 patients with stage T1c-2bN0M0 localized prostate cancer underwent HIFU using the Sonablate system (Focus Surgery, Inc., Indianapolis, IN, USA). None of the patients received neoadjuvant and/or adjuvant therapy. Biochemical recurrence was defined according to the criteria recommended by the American Society for Therapeutic Radiology and Oncology consensus definition, i.e. three consecutive increases in prostate-specific antigen (PSA) level after the nadir. The median (range) age, PSA level and follow-up were 71 (45-87) years, 8.5 (3.39-57.0) ng/mL and 22.0 (3-63) months, respectively. RESULTS: The overall biochemical disease-free rate was 75% (47 patients). The 3-year biochemical DFS rates for patients with a PSA level before HIFU of <10, 10.01-20 and >20 ng/mL were 82%, 62% and 20% (P < 0.001), respectively. The 3-year biochemical DFS rates for patients with a PSA nadir of <0.2, 0.21-1 and >1 ng/mL were 100%, 74% and 21% (P < 0.001), respectively. Final follow-up sextant biopsies showed that 55 (87%) of the patients were cancer-free. Multivariate analysis showed that the PSA nadir (P < 0.001) was a significant independent predictor of relapse. CONCLUSION: HIFU therapy appears to be a safe, effective and minimally invasive therapy for patients with localized prostate cancer, and the PSA nadir is a useful predictor of clinical outcome.  相似文献

Objective:   To report on the long-term results of high-intensity focused ultrasound in the treatment of localized prostate cancer.
Methods:   A total of 517 men with stage T1c–T3N0M0 prostate cancer treated with Sonablate devices (Focus Surgery, Indianapolis, IN, USA) between January 1999 and December 2007 were included in the study. Biochemical failure was defined according to the Phoenix definition (prostate-specific antigen nadir + 2 ng/mL).
Results:   The median follow-up period for all patients was 24.0 months (range, 2 to 88). The biochemical disease-free rate (BDFR) in all patients at 5 years was 72%. The BDFR in patients with stage T1c, T2a, T2b, T2c and T3 groups at 5 years were 74%, 79%, 72%, 24% and 33%, respectively ( P  < 0.0001). BDFR in patients in the low, intermediate and high-risk groups at 5 years were 84%, 64% and 45%, respectively ( P  < 0.0001). The BDFR in patients treated with or without neoadjuvant hormonal therapy at 7 years were 73% and 53% ( P  < 0.0001), respectively. In multivariate analysis, pretreatment prostate-specific antigen levels (hazard ratio 1.060; P  < 0.0001; 95% confidence interval 1.040–1.080), neoadjuvant hormonal therapy (hazard ratio 2.252; P  < 0.0001; 95% confidence interval 1.530–3.315) and stage ( P  = 0.0189) were demonstrated to be statistically significant variables. Postoperative erectile dysfunction was noted in 33 out of 114 (28.9%) patients who were preoperatively potent.
Conclusions:   High-intensity focused ultrasound therapy appears to be minimally invasive, efficacious and safe for patients with localized prostate cancer, particularly those with low- and intermediate-risk cancer.  相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To assess the short-term outcome in patients with high-risk prostate cancer treated by transrectal high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU). PATIENTS AND METHODS: From April 2003 to November 2004, 30 patients with high-risk prostate cancer were enrolled in this prospective study; all had transurethral resection of the prostate before transrectal HIFU treatment, using the Ablatherm device (EDAP, Lyon, France) during the same session, associated with hormonal therapy with luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone analogues. After the procedure, all the patients were evaluated every 3 months by physical examination, prostate-specific antigen (PSA) assay and a continence questionnaire. The follow-up schedule also included a transperineal prostate biopsy 6 months after the treatment. All the patients had a minimum follow-up of 12 months. RESULTS: The HIFU treatment took a median (interquartile range, IQR) of 140 (100-160) min. No complications were reported during treatment. The mean (IQR) hospitalization was 2.2 (1-4) days, and the suprapubic drainage tube was removed after 12 (7-18) days. The complications after treatment were: urinary tract infections in five patients (16%), stenosis of the intraprostatic and membranous urethra in three (10%), and secondary infravesical obstruction in four (13%). At 12 months after the procedure, 28 patients (93%) were continent. Seven of the 30 men (23%) had a positive prostate biopsy. At the 1-year follow-up only three of the 30 patients with high-risk prostate cancer had a PSA level of >0.3 ng/mL. CONCLUSIONS: HIFU is a modern, minimally invasive therapy for prostate cancer, often used in selected patients with localized disease. The present results show that HIFU was also feasible in patients with high-risk prostate cancer. The low complication rates and favourable functional outcome support the planning of further larger studies in such patients. The oncological efficacy of HIFU should be assessed in further studies with a longer follow-up.  相似文献

We report the first case of salvage robotic-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (RALP) following failed primary high-intensity focussed ultrasound (HIFU) for localised carcinoma of the prostate. A 66-year-old male with a presenting prostate-specific antigen (PSA) of 5 ng/ml was diagnosed with T1c Gleason 3 + 4 prostate cancer. He underwent transurethral resection of the prostate and HIFU. His PSA dropped to 2.0 ng/ml and repeat biopsy revealed upgrading of his prostate cancer to Gleason 4 + 3. He was referred to us for a second opinion and, following discussion of his options, he underwent RALP. The total operative time was 159 min. There were no intra- or postoperative complications. He was discharged on postoperative day two and was fully continent 10 days following removal of his catheter. His PSA remained undetectable 6 months postoperatively. Salvage RALP was feasible in this case with good functional and short-term oncological outcomes for the patient.  相似文献

OBJECTIVE

To report on the short‐term functional and oncological results, from one institution, of high‐intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) for treating localized prostate cancer.

PATIENTS AND METHODS

Over a 3‐year period, 43 patients with localized prostate cancer were scheduled for HIFU in the primary (31) and salvage (12) settings using a second‐generation AblathermTM device (EDAP, Lyon, France). Oncological failure was defined by several criteria, including biochemical failure (assessed using both the Phoenix definition of the nadir + 2 ng/mL) and the current Food and Drug Administration (FDA) trial endpoint of a prostate‐specific antigen (PSA) level of ≥0.5 ng/mL, or starting salvage therapy, or the presence of cancer on biopsy after treatment.

RESULTS

Three patients had their procedures abandoned due to technical limitations/rectal wall thickness. The mean PSA levels in the primary and salvage groups were 9.2 and 5.1 ng/mL, respectively. The mean HIFU treatment time in the primary and salvage groups was 71.1 and 63.3 min, respectively. Using the Phoenix definition of biochemical failure, HIFU treatment failed in 13 patients in the primary group (46%) and five in the salvage group. Using the FDA trial endpoint, HIFU failed in 21 patients in the primary group (75%) and eight in the salvage group. One man died from metastatic prostate cancer 18 months after salvage HIFU. There were two urethral strictures in the primary (7%) and one in the salvage treatment group. There were two prostato‐rectal fistulae in the salvage HIFU group.

CONCLUSIONS

HIFU is proposed to be a minimally invasive low‐morbidity ablative treatment for localized prostate cancer, and with good efficacy. The present limited series is unable to support these claims. There were significant rates of complications and oncological failure in both the primary and salvage setting. As a result we have suspended our programme pending further evidence of its safety and efficacy.  相似文献

PURPOSE: To evaluate the results of high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) treatment of localized prostate cancer with reference to disease-related prognostic factors. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Patients with T1-2 localized prostate cancers, prostate specific antigen (PSA) 1 ng/ml with three consecutive rises. RESULTS: The study included 227 patients. Mean follow-up was 27+/-20 months (12-121 months). Eighty-six percent had negative control biopsies. Median nadir PSA was 0.10 ng/ml. The actuarial 5-year disease-free survival rate (DFSR), combining pathologic and biochemical outcomes, was 66%. DFSR showed a significant decrease when stratified according to initial PSA level: 90% with PSA 相似文献

Objectives: To assess the long‐term outcomes of transrectal high‐intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) for patients with localized prostate cancer. Methods: From May 2003 to present, 137 consecutive patients with T1‐2 prostate cancer were treated using the Sonablate 500 and then followed for more than 12 months after their last HIFU treatment. A prostate biopsy was routinely carried out at 6 months and serum prostate‐specific antigen (PSA) was measured every 3 months after HIFU. Oncological outcomes as well as treatment‐related complications were assessed. Disease‐free survival (DFS) was judged using the Phoenix definition (PSA nadir + 2 ng/mL), negative histological findings and no local or distant metastasis. Results: The median follow up after HIFU was 36 months (range 12–84 months). No patients received adjuvant therapy during this period. The PSA nadir occurred at 2 months after HIFU and the median level was 0.07 ng/mL (0.01–2.01 ng/mL). Of the 133 patients who underwent prostate biopsy or transurethral resection of the prostate at 6 months or later after HIFU, six were positive for cancer cells (4.5%). There were no major postoperative complications, but urge incontinence (16 cases) and dysuria (33 cases) occurred after removal of the urethral catheter. The 5‐year DFS rate was 78% based on these criteria, and 91%, 81% and 62% in the low‐, intermediate‐ and high‐risk group, respectively. Conclusions: HIFU represents an effective, repeatable and minimally invasive treatment. It is particularly effective for low‐ and intermediate‐risk patients, and it should be considered as an option for localized prostate cancer.  相似文献

Study Type – Therapy (case series)
Level of Evidence 4

OBJECTIVE

To present experience in high‐intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) used as a salvage therapy for biopsy‐confirmed local recurrence at the vesico‐urethral anastomosis after radical prostatectomy (RP).

PATIENTS AND METHODS

From July 2006, four patients diagnosed with prostate cancer recurrence after RP were treated with HIFU, with or without salvage radiotherapy, using the Sonablate® 500 (Focus Surgery, IN, USA). Biochemical failure was defined as in increase in prostate‐specific antigen (PSA) level of >0.2 ng/mL. No patients received any adjuvant therapy after HIFU therapy before reporting failure.

RESULTS

The mean age and initial PSA level before RP was 74 years and 10.0 ng/mL, respectively. After RP, one patient was stage T2aN0M0, two were stage T3N0M0 and the last had an unknown pathological stage. Three patients received external beam radiotherapy as salvage therapy after RP. The mean PSA level before HIFU, tumour volume at the vesico‐urethral lesion and operative duration were 4.3 ng/mL, 4.6 mL and 27 min, respectively. Adenocarcinomas were confirmed by biopsy of the tumour at the vesico‐urethral anastomotic lesion before HIFU. At 24 months of follow‐up, patients 2 and 4 were classified a biochemically disease‐free. Biopsies at the anastomotic site after HIFU in three patients showed no malignancy, with fibrosis. There were no complications.

CONCLUSION

Salvage HIFU for patients with recurrence after RP is feasible, even though they received salvage radiotherapy before HIFU. More patients and a longer follow‐up are needed to evaluate the safety and oncological adequacy of this new approach.  相似文献

Study Type – Therapy (case series) Level of Evidence 4 What's known on the subject? and What does the study add? The experience with HIFU as a minimally invasive treatment for localized prostate cancer is relatively new and most reports are from European centres. Our study is unique in five regards: 1. Data was collected prospectively. 2. All patients were treated with contemporary technology. 3. Outcomes are reported after a single HIFU session using two definitions of biochemical failure that have the ability to predict longer‐term clinical failure after primary ablative therapies for prostate cancer (Stuttgart definition for HIFU and Horwitz definition for radiation). 4. All patients were treated in a single centre. 5. No patients underwent peri‐HIFU TURP. The present study represents the largest North American prospective cohort of primary HIFU for prostate cancer with mid‐term oncological outcome data.

OBJECTIVE

  • ? To assess 4‐year biochemical failure (BCF) rates in patients after high‐intensity focused ultrasonography (HIFU) treatment using the Horwitz and Stuttgart definitions.

PATIENTS AND METHODS

  • ? A total of 447 consecutive patients were treated with a single session of HIFU between May 2005 and December 2010.
  • ? Follow‐up included prostate‐specific antigen (PSA) measurement every 3 months during the first year and every 6 months thereafter.
  • ? Patients who had previously received radiation, androgen deprivation or HIFU therapy, and patients with <2 consecutive PSA measurements were excluded.
  • ? BCF was reported using the Stuttgart (PSA nadir + 1.2 ng/mL rising) and the Horwitz (two consecutive increases of at least 0.5 ng/mL) definitions.

RESULTS

  • ? In all, 402 patients met the inclusion criteria and the median (range) follow‐up was 24 (6–48) months.
  • ? Of these patients, 183 (45.5%) had low and 219 (54.5%) had intermediate D'Amico's risk stratification disease.
  • ? Mean and median absolute PSA nadir levels were 0.36 ± 0.69 and 0.1 ng/mL (Q1:0, Q3:0.37), respectively and these were achieved in median time of 3 months.
  • ? Overall 4‐year mean (range) BCF‐free rates were 68 (61–75)% and 72 (68–77)% according to the Stuttgart and Horwitz definitions at 4 years, respectively.
  • ? Mean (range) BCF‐free rates were significantly higher for a PSA nadir ≤0.5 ng/mL and prostate volume ≤30 mL for both definitions at 4‐year follow‐up [Stuttgart: 79 (72–86)% vs. 25 (13–38)%; Horwitz: 82 (77–87)% vs. 33 (21–44)%] and [Stuttgart: 72 (64–79)% vs. 56 (42–69)%; Horwitz: 75 (69–80)% vs. 63 (53–74)%], respectively.
  • ? Pre‐treatment PSA and PSA nadir of >0.5 ng/mL were the predictors of BCF using both definitions.

CONCLUSIONS

  • ? Primary HIFU appears to result in promising 4‐year BCF‐free rates in individuals with low‐ and intermediate‐risk prostate cancer who achieve PSA nadir <0.5 ng/mL.
  • ? A prostate volume <30 mL is associated with PSA nadir levels of <0.5 ng/mL suggesting a potential role for pretreatment volume reduction (medically or surgically) in larger prostates.

Purpose

Patient selection for focal salvage remains difficult. Therefore, we developed and internally validated prediction models for biochemical failure (BF) and a composite endpoint (CE) following focal salvage high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) for radiorecurrent prostate cancer.

Materials and methods

A prospective HIFU registry identified 150 cases (November 2006–August 2015). Recurrence was assessed with multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) combined with template prostate mapping biopsies, targeted biopsies, or systematic transrectal ultrasound-guided biopsies. Metastatic disease was ruled out with a positron emission tomography-computed tomography and a bone scan. Focal salvage HIFU consisted of quadrant-ablation, hemi-ablation, or index-lesion ablation. Cox-regression was used for BF (Phoenix-definition) and CE (BF/MRI+/biopsies+/local or systemic treatment/metastases+/prostate cancer specific mortality+). Internal validation was performed using bootstrap resampling (500 datasets) after which C-statistic and hazard ratios were adjusted. Models were calibrated and risk scores created.

Results

Median follow-up was 35 months (interquartile range: 22–52). Median biochemical disease-free survival (DFS) was 33 months (95% CI: 23–45). Median CE-free survival was 24 months (95% CI: 21–35). After multivariable analysis, DFS interval after primary radiotherapy, presalvage prostate-specific antigen (PSA), PSA-doubling time, prostatic volume, and T-stage (both MRI based) predicted BF. For the CE, PSA-doubling time was not predictive but additionally, primary Gleason score was. The adjusted C-statistics were 0.68 and 0.64 for BF and CE, respectively. Calibration was accurate until 48 months. The risk scores showed 3 groups, with biochemical DFS of 60%, 35%, and 7% and CE-free survival of 40%, 24%, and 0% at 4 years.

Conclusion

Our model, once externally validated, could allow for better selection of patients for focal salvage HIFU.  相似文献

High-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) is a minimally invasive alternative for patients with localized prostate cancer, not suitable for radical prostatectomy because of a life expectancy less than 10 years or because of major co-morbidities precluding surgery. HIFU can be performed in patients with LUTS (associated TURP) or with a previous history of BPH surgery. HIFU is repeatable after the initial procedure if a recurrent cancer is diagnosed on control biopsies. Furthermore, this therapy is a viable option for patients with a local relapse after external beam radiation therapy: oncologic efficacy is conversely related to the initial prostate cancer stage before radiation therapy.  相似文献

The literature concerning the efficacy and safety of transrectal high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) for the treatment of localized prostate cancer still comprises a relatively small number of articles. The main studies have been published by four teams using an apparatus available in Europe for several years. The recently presented results of the European Multicentre Study and the study by Gelet and associates based on 242 patients with a follow-up of more than 1 year show that HIFU is a valid alternative for the management of welldifferentiated and moderately differentiated localized prostate cancer with an initial PSA 10 years. In two studies, the combination of transurethral resection of the prostate and HIFU limited the risk of postoperative urinary retention without inducing a higher complication rate. In a series of patients presenting recurrence after external-beam radiotherapy, HIFU was found to be a useful therapy, with >80% negative biopsies. The best indications for HIFU are men over the age of 65, those who are not candidates for radical prostatectomy, obese patients, or patients with comorbidities likely to make surgery more difficult. The learning curve for this technique is relatively short, between 10 and 15 patients, for urologists experienced in transrectal ultrasonography. One of the advantages of HIFU is that it can be repeated in the case of recurrence or to re-treat a prostatic site, it involves no radiation, and patients do not suffer from long-term irritative urinary symptoms.  相似文献

Four patients with biochemical prostate-specific antigen (PSA) failure with suspected local recurrence at the vesico-urethral anastomotic site after radical prostatectomy were treated using a high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) device (Sonablate 500) under caudal or spinal anesthesia. The pretreatment PSA levels ranged from 0.318 to 0.898 ng/mL and their Gleason scores ranged between 5 and 7. HIFU treatment was carried out six times in four patients. The median time of operation and follow-up period were 30 min (range, 15-37) and 13 months (range, 7-18), respectively. In all patients, the median PSA levels decreased from 0.555 ng/mL (range, 0.318-0.898) to 0.137 ng/mL (range, 0.102-0.290). The median PSA nadir after each HIFU was 0.054 ng/mL (range, 0.008-0.097). No major complications were noted. HIFU may be useful for the therapy of vesicourethral anastomostic lesion in patients with PSA failure after prostatectomy.  相似文献

Study Type – Therapy (case series)
Level of Evidence What’s known on the subject? and What does the study add? Renal cancer is increasingly diagnosed when tumours are small and asymptomatic, during routine abdominal imaging. Whilst surgery is an effective and potentially curative option, it carries a significant risk of complications. Recent work suggests that thermally ablative therapies (RFA, cryotherapy, HIFU) may be suitable minimally invasive treatment options in selected patients. The success of extracorporeal HIFU has been limited by the abdominal wall and rib‐cage limiting energy delivery. For this study, a purpose‐built laparoscopic HIFU probe was designed to allow direct application of the transducer to the tumour surface, thus facilitating tumour destruction. Successful and accurate tumour destruction was demonstrated, paving the way for further clinical trials, subject to device modifications.

OBJECTIVE

  • ? To test and establish clinical proof of concept for a laparoscopic high‐intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) device that facilitates delivery of ultrasound by direct application of a probe to the tumour surface.

PATIENTS AND METHODS

  • ? Twelve patients with renal tumours were treated with laparoscopic HIFU using a newly designed probe inserted via an 18‐mm laparoscopic port.
  • ? HIFU treatment was targeted at a pre‐defined proportion of the tumour and immediate laparoscopic partial or radical nephrectomy was then performed.

RESULTS

  • ? No tumour ablation was seen in the first five patients which made modifications in the treatment protocol necessary. After this, definite histological evidence of ablation was seen in the remaining seven patients.
  • ? The ablated zones were within the targeted area in all patients and no intra‐lesional skipping was seen.
  • ? Subcapsular skipping was seen at the probe–tumour interface in two patients with viable tumour cells seen at microscopy.
  • ? One patient did not undergo surgical extirpation; subsequent biopsy revealed no viable tumour cells.
  • ? There were no intraoperative or postoperative complications directly related to HIFU therapy and patients have reached a mean (range) follow‐up of 15 (8–24) months with no evidence of metastatic disease or late complications.

CONCLUSIONS

  • ? Tumour ablation with laparoscopic HIFU is feasible.
  • ? Homogenous ablation can be achieved with no vital tissue within the targeted zone.
  • ? The technique is associated with low morbidity and may have a role in the definitive management of small tumours.
