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