Summary

This study compares two types of radiation for prostate cancer: one that targets only the tumor and one that treats the whole prostate. The goal is to see if the focused approach causes fewer short-term side effects like bladder or bowel problems. About 150 men with intermediate- or high-risk prostate cancer will take part. Researchers will also track long-term outcomes like survival and quality of life.
