Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

RATIONALE: Internal radiation uses radioactive material placed directly into or near a tumor to kill tumor cells. It is not yet known whether surgery is more effective than internal radiation in treating prostate cancer.

PURPOSE: Randomized phase III trial to compare the effectiveness of surgery with that of internal radiation in treating patients who have stage II prostate cancer.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

OBJECTIVES:

* Compare overall survival in patients with stage II prostate cancer treated with radical prostatectomy vs brachytherapy.
* Compare metastasis-free survival and probability of survival without symptoms of patients treated with these regimens.
* Compare the side effects of these treatment regimens in these patients.

OUTLINE: This is a randomized study. Patients are randomized to one of two treatment arms.

* Arm I: Patients undergo radical prostatectomy.
* Arm II: Patients undergo brachytherapy with implanted iodine I 125 or palladium Pd 103 seeds Patients are followed every 6 months for 5 years and then annually thereafter.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 1,980 patients (990 per treatment arm) will be accrued for this study within 5.5 years.
