Summary

This trial studies how to safely use radiation to treat prostate cancer after surgery, aiming to limit damage to healthy tissue.

Who is the study for?
Men who've had prostate cancer surgery can join this trial. They should be in decent physical shape (ECOG 0-2), have no signs of cancer spread based on recent scans, and a PSA level up to 2.0. Men with certain high-risk features from their surgery are also eligible. Those with uncontrolled illnesses, other cancers within the last 5 years (except skin cancer), or taking experimental treatments can't join.
What is being tested?
The trial is testing how safe and effective stereotactic body radiation therapy is for prostate cancer patients post-surgery. It's looking for the best dose that targets the tumor while sparing healthy tissue, alongside assessing quality-of-life and analyzing biomarkers.
What are the potential side effects?
Stereotactic body radiation may cause side effects like fatigue, skin reactions at the treatment site, urinary issues, bowel discomfort, and erectile dysfunction due to its focus on areas affected by prostate cancer.

Study Objectives

Study objectives can provide a clearer picture of what you can expect from a treatment.
Primary study objectives
MTD, defined as the highest dose tested in which fewer than 33% of patients experienced dose limiting toxicity, graded according to the National Cancer Institute (NCI) Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 4.0
Secondary study objectives
Biochemical progression-free survival
Incidence of acute toxicities observed at each dose level graded according to the NCI CTCAE version 4.0
Incidence of late toxicities observed at each dose level graded according to the NCI CTCAE version 4.0
