Summary

Objective: The objective of this study is test the hypothesis that delivering a higher percentage of the radiation dose as external radiation versus implant will lead to higher tumor control rates.

Research design A total of 600 patients with AJC clinical stage T1-T2 prostatic carcinoma (Gleason grade 7 to 10 and/or PSA 10 to 20 ng/ml) will be randomized to treatment with 44 Gy versus 20 Gy external radiation plus a Pd-103 implant boost (90 Gy versus 105 Gy, respectively).
