No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The aim of the present phase III study is two-folded: 1) to show a superiority of external beam radiotherapy combined with a brachytherapy boost versus exclusive external beam radiotherapy and 2) to evaluate the economic impact of each treatment.

The study includes 33 cancer centres, the inclusion time is of 2 years and the follow-up is of 5 years.

Conditions

Interventions

RADIATION

Brachytherapy boost with external beam radiotherapy

Bras A: External beam radiotherapy of 46 Gy delivered with a linear accelerator (Varian) to the prostate and the first centimeter of the seminal vesicles with a brachytherapy boost (of iodine-125 seeds from Bard (110Gy) or high dose rate (14Gy) with a iridium-192 source) only to the prostate. Each center will choose the appropriate brachytherapy technique. The number of seeds or needles will depend on the prostate's volume.

RADIATION

Exclusive external beam radiotherapy

Bras B: External beam radiotherapy of 46 Gy delivered with photons and a linear accelerator (Varian) to the prostate and the first centimeter of the seminal vesicles with an external beam radiotherapy of 80 Gy to the prostate alone.
