Study Summary

This trial is testing if a new type of radiation therapy can better treat prostate cancer without damaging nearby tissue.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for men with high-risk prostate cancer that hasn't spread beyond the prostate or to lymph nodes. Participants must have a Karnofsky performance status of 70 or above, indicating they can care for themselves. They should not have had extensive hormone therapy, prior cryosurgery, HIFU, brachytherapy, pelvic radiotherapy, nor suffer from Crohn's disease or Ulcerative colitis.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) on patients with localized high-risk prostate cancer. SBRT delivers a concentrated dose of radiation aiming to kill more tumor cells while sparing healthy tissue. The trial also assesses how this treatment affects patients' quality of life and monitors changes through lab biomarker analysis.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects include damage to surrounding tissues leading to urinary and bowel issues; fatigue; skin reactions in the treated area; and possible sexual dysfunction due to the proximity of treatment areas to reproductive organs.
