New radiation approach may offer shorter, safer treatment for recurrent prostate cancer
NCT ID NCT06205316
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Sep 18, 2026 · Updated 4 times
Summary
This study tests whether a precise, short-course radiation method (SBRT) works as well as a slightly longer radiation approach (hypofractionated radiotherapy) for men whose prostate cancer has come back or spread to a few spots after surgery. About 118 participants will receive one of the two treatments. The goal is to see if SBRT causes fewer serious side effects while still controlling the cancer.
