A Phase III Randomized Study Of High Dose 3D-CRT/IMRT Versus Standard Dose 3D-CRT/IMRT In Patients Treated For Localized Prostate Cancer
In Brief
A Phase 3 clinical trial evaluating 70.2 Gy 3D-CRT/IMRT and 79.2 Gy 3D-CRT/IMRT for Prostate Cancer. Completed, enrolled 1,534 participants across 86 sites in 2 countries.
Detailed Summary
RATIONALE: Specialized radiation therapy that delivers a high dose of radiation directly to the tumor may kill more tumor cells and cause less damage to normal tissue. It is not yet known which dose of radiation therapy is more effective in treating stage II prostate cancer. PURPOSE: Randomized phase III trial to compare the effectiveness of two different doses of specialized radiation therapy in treating patients who have stage II prostate cancer.

Interventions
Radiation will be delivered via 3D conformal radiation therapy (3D-CRT) or intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) in 1.8 Gy minimum dose fractions to a total of 70.2 Gy in 39 Fractions. All fields treated once daily, five fractions per week. No more than 2% of the planning target volume and none of the clinical target volume may receive less than 70.2 Gy.
