INTERVENTIONAL

Conditions

Summary

This is a single-arm phase II prospective trials that is recruiting 100 participants. The study population that is being investigated are patients with localized high-risk or node-positive prostate cancer. Participants will receive external beam radiotherapy as a moderately hypofractionated boost to the prostate with pelvic radiation therapy. Androgen deprivation therapy will be prescribed at the discretion of the treating physician as per standard of care.

Plain Language Summary

Simplified for easier understanding

This study tests a radiation approach called "moderate hypofractionated boost" — delivering radiation to the prostate in fewer, slightly larger doses — combined with pelvic radiation, for men with high-risk prostate cancer. The goal is to see whether this approach is as effective and safe as standard radiation schedules. **You may be eligible if...** - You are over 18 years old with a confirmed diagnosis of prostate adenocarcinoma (prostate cancer) - You have high-risk or locally advanced prostate cancer by NCCN criteria (e.g., tumor stage cT3+, Gleason grade group 4+, or PSA over 20 ng/mL, or cancer in nearby lymph nodes) - Your cancer has not spread to distant parts of the body (M0) - Your general health is good (ECOG 0–1) **You may NOT be eligible if...** - You have had prior pelvic radiation - You have medical contraindications to radiation therapy Talk to your doctor to see if this trial is right for you.
