Hypofractionated Radiotherapy for Localized Prostate Cancer (With CyberKnife or With IMRT)
Phase 2
Completed
- Conditions
- Prostatic Neoplasms
- Registration Number
- NCT00855647
- Lead Sponsor
- Stanford University
- Brief Summary
To demonstrate that a hypo-fractionated course of radiotherapy (ie. an accelerated radiotherapy course where fewer but larger doses of radiotherapy are given) is both safe and effective in the treatment of low-risk localized prostate cancer.
