Brief Summary

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

This clinical trial studies stereotactic body radiation therapy in treating patients with low- and intermediate-risk prostate cancer. Stereotactic body radiation therapy may be able to send x-rays directly to the tumor and cause less damage to normal tissue.

Detailed Description

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

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To evaluate, in terms of late toxicity, the safety of stereotactic radiation therapy using the proposed fractionation schedule.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To evaluate, in terms of acute toxicity, the safety of stereotactic radiation therapy using the proposed fractionation schedule.

II. To determine stereotactic treatment efficacy through biochemical failure (Phoenix criteria).

III. To determine the protocol completion rate. IV. To describe patient-reported outcomes using International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF) and EPIC Urinary and Bowel Assessment questionnaires.

OUTLINE: Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 treatment arms.

ARM I: Patients undergo standard daily fractions of stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) over 7-8.5 weeks.

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

* Patients must have low or intermediate risk adenocarcinoma of the prostate as defined by:

* Low-risk disease - Histopathology score (Gleason sum): =\<6, T-stage (per current AJCC staging criteria): T1c-T2a, and PSA: \<10
* Intermediate-risk disease as either:

* Histopathology score (Gleason sum) =\< 6, T-stage (per current American Joint Committee on Cancer \[AJCC\] staging criteria): T1c-T2a, and prostate-specific antigen (PSA) \> 10 but =\< 20; or
* Histopathology score (Gleason sum) 7 with =\< 50% of any cores positive, T-stage (per current AJCC staging criteria): T1c-T2a, and PSA \< 10
* Charlson index of comorbidity score =\< 4
* Ability to understand and the willingness to sign a written informed consent document

Exclusion Criteria

* Patients with history of inflammatory bowel disease, or who require steroid or cytotoxic therapy for collagen vascular disease
* Patients with a history of cancer other than skin cancer within 5 years of the initiation of protocol treatment
* Patients with a history of pelvic irradiation for any reason
* Life expectancy \< 10 years - Prior treatment with an anti-androgen, luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LHRH) agonist, or a combination of the two
* Prior radiation therapy, brachytherapy, or cryotherapy
* Prior surgical procedure involving peri-rectal and peri-prostatic area
