Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
RATIONALE: Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to damage tumor cells. It is not yet known whether standard radiation therapy is more effective than high-dose radiation therapy in treating patients with prostate cancer. PURPOSE: Randomized phase III trial to compare the effectiveness of standard radiation therapy with that of high-dose radiation therapy in treating patients with stage II or stage III prostate cancer.
