Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
The purpose of this prostate cancer research study is to learn about: 1. Improving control of prostate cancer using radiation therapy, delivered to the para-aortic and pelvic lymph nodes, in addition to systemic androgen suppression therapy; 2. Preserving quality of life after radiation therapy; 3. Leveraging imaging results from prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) scans to evaluate and manage disease progression.

Primary outcomes (1)
- measure
- Progression-free Survival (PFS)
- timeFrame
- Up to 2 years
- description
- Progression-free survival (PFS) among participants will be assessed during treatment and clinical follow-up. PFS is defined as the time from start of treatment until any of the following: Biochemical failure, escalation of therapy, radiological evidence of disease progression or death of any cause. Radiological evidence of disease progression will be assessed by the treating physician using the Response Evaluation Criteria in prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) PET/CT (RECIP) version 1.0.
