Summary

This study looked at whether giving only 2 radiation treatments instead of 5 is better for men with low or intermediate-risk prostate cancer. The main goal was to see if fewer treatments cause fewer bowel and urinary side effects. The study was stopped early, but it aimed to help men get effective treatment with less discomfort.
