Felipe Couñago: First Prospective Spanish Study Evaluates Online Adaptive MR-Guided SBRT for the Prostate Bed

Felipe Couñago, National Clinical Director of GenesisCare Spain, shared a post on LinkedIn:

“Excited to share that our latest manuscript has been accepted for publication in Clinical and Translational Radiation Oncology (ctRO – Clinical and Translational Radiation Oncology)!

‘MRI-Guided Adaptive Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy for the Prostate Bed: Early Safety and Patient-Reported Quality-of-Life Outcomes from a Prospective Study.’

To the best of our knowledge, this is the first prospective study from Spain evaluating online adaptive MR-guided SBRT (MR-Linac) delivered in 5 fractions to the prostate bed for patients with biochemical recurrence after radical prostatectomy.

Our findings demonstrate the feasibility of this innovative approach, with encouraging early safety results and excellent preservation of patient-reported quality of life.

Congratulations to our outstanding first author, Daniela Gonsalves Pieretti, for leading this project. I am especially proud that this study forms part of Daniela’s PhD thesis, reflecting our commitment to combining clinical innovation with academic excellence.

A sincere thank you to all co-authors, the entire MR-Linac team, and to all referring physicians, both from GenesisCare Spain and other institutions, for trusting our program. Most importantly, thank you to our patients and their families, your trust and participation make advances like this possible.

The article is currently in production and will be published soon. Stay tuned!”
