Summary

This study is for men with prostate cancer that has spread to other parts of the body. It compares two ways of giving radiation to the prostate: one schedule gives treatment every other day for two weeks, the other once a week for six weeks. The goal is to see if the shorter schedule causes fewer side effects while still controlling the cancer.
