Study Summary

"This trial is comparing two different radiation therapies for localized prostate cancer. One treatment involves fewer but higher doses of radiation given over a shorter period, while the other involves more treatments with lower doses given over a

Who is the study for?
This trial is for men with localized prostate cancer, meaning the cancer hasn't spread. Participants should be suitable for and have not yet received radiation therapy. Specific details about who can join or reasons someone might be excluded aren't provided.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study compares two types of radiation therapy: near margin-less Adaptive Radiation Therapy (ART) given in fewer treatments versus standard Stereotactic Ablative Body Radiotherapy (SABR) over more sessions. It aims to see if ART affects quality of life less than SABR while still being effective.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Radiation therapies like ART and SABR may cause side effects such as skin irritation, fatigue, urinary issues, bowel problems, and sexual dysfunction. The severity varies from person to person.
