Summary
This study tests whether a higher dose of proton radiation, precisely aimed at tumors seen on MRI, can better control high-risk prostate cancer. About 100 participants will receive radiation over 8-9 weeks, plus hormone therapy for 18 months. The main goal is to see if this approach lowers the chance of cancer returning within 5 years.
