Summary

This study is testing whether a new targeted radiation treatment can slow the growth of advanced prostate cancer better than standard chemotherapy. It is for men whose cancer has spread and stopped responding to hormone-blocking drugs. The trial will compare the new treatment, which delivers radiation directly to cancer cells, against the chemotherapy drug docetaxel.
