brachytherapy of external beam radiation therapy);
- Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) at time of salvage <=20 ng/ml;

Symptom Score (IPSS)<15);
- Concordance between PSMA-PET/CT and mp-MRI;
- Tumor location technically feasible for brachytherapy;
- Karnofsky score >=70;
- Written informed consent;
- Fit for spinal anesthesia.

Exclusion Criteria

- Distant metastases;
- Previous pelvic radiotherapy for another malignancy;
- Prior prostate treatment(s) like a recent transurethral resection of the
prostate (TURP) (<6 months before focal salvage HDR treatment), HIFU or
cryosurgery, except for radiotherapy;

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
<p>The incidence of gastrointestinal and/or genitourinary toxicity, which will be<br /><br>determined by the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE)<br /><br>version 4.0.</p><br>
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
<p>- QoL assessment by questionnaires (RAND-36, EORTC QLQ-PR-25, EORTC QLQ-C30,<br /><br>IPSS, IIEF-5);<br /><br>- PSA-monitoring for evaluation of biochemical disease free survival;<br /><br>- Dose restrictions analysis by relating dosage to toxicity to prevent/reduce<br /><br>toxicity;<br /><br>- Evaluation of catheter shifts during focal salvage HDR-BT;<br /><br>- Prediction-modeling for the determination of predictive factors for tumor<br /><br>control, to further optimize patient selection.</p><br>
