Overview
Brief Summary
The primary objective of the trial is to compare the impact and safety of delayed salvage therapy (dSRT, i.e., SRT initiated at PSA values of 0.4-0.5 ng/ml) to those of early salvage therapy (eSRT, i.e., at PSA levels of 0.2 ng/ml) in patients with biochemical relapse after radical prostatectomy.
The secondary objective of the trial is to perform analysis of the subgroups of patients to determine which patients are most likely to benefit from dSRT
Exploratory objective of the trial is to determine whether selected molecular genetic parameters (172 candidate genes and molecular alterations) and known clinical parameters can be used to identify potential predictors of worse prognosis in patients with known risk factors for relapse after radical prostatectomy, thereby augmenting and refining patient stratification, optimizing their therapy, and clarifying the proper timing of multimodal therapy

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Event-free survival (EFS)
Time Frame: Analysed 3 years after randomisation of the last patient.
Defined as a time to re-documented biochemical relapse after salvage therapy (bRFS), demonstration of clinical relapse (i.e.,local relapse /lRFS/, locoregional relapse /lrRFS/, distant relapse /MFS/) and/or death from any cause.
Secondary Outcomes
- Carcinoma-specific survival (CSS)(Analysed 5/10 years after randomization of the last patient.)
- Overall survival (5y- and 10y- OS)(Analysed 5/10 years after randomization of the last patient.)
- Health-related quality of life (QoL) assessment.(Analysed 5 years after randomization of the last patient.)
- Incidence of treatment-related acute and late toxicity(Analysed 5 years after randomization of the last patient.)
