Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy (IMRT) Radiotherapy for Treating Prostate Pelvic Nodes

Phase 2
Completed
Conditions
Prostate Cancer
Interventions
Radiation: radiotherapy
Registration Number
NCT00214136
Lead Sponsor
University of Wisconsin, Madison
Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to examine the clinical feasibility and efficacy of uing IMRT to escalate the biologically effective dose to the pelvic lymph nodes in a short course of radiation therapy. An increased total and biologically effective dose will be delivered to the pelvic lymph nodes (56 Gy at 2 Gy/fraction). The prostate will receive standard "short course" IMRT of radiation (70 Gy at 2.5 Gy/fraction).
