Summary

RATIONALE: Specialized radiation therapy that delivers a high- dose of radiation directly to the tumor may kill more tumor cells and cause less damage to normal tissue. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as docetaxel, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Androgens can cause the growth of prostate cancer cells. Antihormone therapy, such as goserelin and bicalutamide, may lessen the amount of androgens made by the body. Giving radiation therapy together with chemotherapy and hormone therapy may kill more tumor cells.

PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of docetaxel when given together with intensity-modulated radiation therapy and hormone therapy in treating patients with high-risk locally advanced prostate cancer with pelvic lymph node metastasis.
