The SpaceOAR Vue System is intended to temporarily position the anterior rectal wall away from the prostate during radiotherapy for prostate cancer and in creating this space it is the intent of the SpaceOAR Vue System to reduce the radiation dose delivered to the anterior rectum. The SpaceOAR Vue System is composed of biodegradable material, maintains space for the entire course of prostate radiotherapy treatment and is completely absorbed by the patient's body over time.
Late Gastrointestinal (GI) Toxicity
Proportion of subjects experiencing late GI toxicity after SBRT treatment with or without placement of the SpaceOAR Vue System hydrogel. Late GI toxicity is defined as the occurrence of a Grade 2 or greater GI adverse event (NCI CTCAE v4) between 3- and 24-months post-SBRT initiation
Time frame: 3 to 24 months post-SBRT initiation
EPIC-26 bowel score
Proportion of subjects experiencing a decrease in EPIC-26 bowel score greater than or equal to the minimal important difference (MID) in EPIC-26 bowel score from baseline to 24 months post-SBRT initiation.
Time frame: 24 months post-SBRT initiation
