5. Histologically confirmed adenocarcinoma of the prostate
6. Meet at least 2 of the following criteria from NCCN classification:

   * Gleason score ≥8
   * T3 or T4 disease (T3 defined by MRI is acceptable)
   * Prostate-specific antigen ≥20 ng/mL
7. Prostate size on MRI \<100 cc
8. Absolute neutrophil count ≥ 1.5 x 10⁹/L
9. Platelet count ≥100 x 10⁹/L
10. Haemoglobin ≥90 g/L (in absence of red blood cell transfusion within 4 weeks prior to randomization)
11. Hepatic function: serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and/or aspartate transaminase (AST) ≤2.5 x upper limit of normal (ULN), total bilirubin ≤1.5 x ULN
12. Creatinine ≤2.0 x ULN
13. Sexually active patients must agree to use an effective contraceptive method while on treatment and for 1 week after the final dose of investigational product
14. Patient must be affiliated to a Social Security System or in possession of equivalent private health insurance (according to local regulations for participation in clinical trials)
15. Patient must be willing and able to comply with the protocol for the duration of the trial including undergoing treatment and scheduled visits, and examinations including follow-up

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Clinically or radiologically detectable metastasis, including no evidence of pelvic lymph node metastasis on next generation imaging (PSMA PET/CT), nor enlarged pelvic lymph nodes (≥1 cm in small diameter) on MRI Note: Patients with infra-centimetric nodal disease (\<1 cm in small diameter) on conventional imaging and equivocal hyperfixation on next generation imaging may be included
2. Recent history of TURP or prostate enucleation (less than 6 months) Note: patients with severe obstructive symptoms (defined as International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) ≥20) should be carefully evaluated to rule out the need for TURP/Prostate enucleation
3. Prior treatment for prostate cancer, including prostatectomy, except lymph node dissection (patients with PN- disease only can be accrued) or ADT (started more than 6 weeks before randomization)
4. Patient with other known concurrent severe and/or uncontrolled concurrent medical disease or infection (such as active viral hepatitis, active human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) or chronic liver disease) or co-morbidity, which could compromise participation in the study
5. Cardiac disease such as uncontrolled hypertension (systolic BP ≥160 mmHg or diastolic BP ≥95 mmHg; 3 consecutive measures taken 5 minutes apart), stroke, congestive cardiac failure, ventricular arrhythmias, active ischemic heart disease, myocardial infarction within one year, coronary/peripheral artery bypass graft, LVEF \> grade 2
6. Uncontrolled diabetes mellitus
7. Current active hepatic or biliary disease (with exception of subjects with Gilbert's syndrome, asymptomatic gallstones, stable chronic liver disease per investigator assessment)
8. Gastrointestinal disorder or procedure, which expects to interfere significantly with absorption of study treatment. Severe GI disorders precluding pelvic irradiation
9. Known severely impaired lung function (spirometry and DLCO 70% or less of normal and O2 saturation of 88% or less at rest on room air)
10. Other prior malignancy within the last 3 years, except basal cell skin cancer
11. Known hypersensitivity to the study treatment or any of its ingredients.
12. Physical or psychological condition or any condition that in the opinion of the investigator would impair the patients' ability to comply with the study procedures
13. Previous treatment for prostate cancer (surgery or radiotherapy) or previous pelvic irradiation that would make prostate/pelvis radiotherapy impossible
14. Concomitant prohibited treatment. Concurrent or planned treatment with strong inhibitors or strong inducers of cytochrome P450 3A4/5. A one-week washout period is necessary for patients who are already on these treatments
15. Prior treatment with second generation androgen receptor (AR) inhibitors, other investigational AR inhibitors, or CYP17 enzyme inhibitor
16. Use of oestrogens or 5-α reductase inhibitors or AR inhibitors
17. Acute toxicities of prior treatments and procedures not resolved to grade ≤1 or baseline before randomization
18. Prior chemotherapy or immunotherapy for prostate cancer
19. Major surgery within 28 days before randomization
20. Participation in another therapeutic trial within 30 days prior to inclusion
21. Persons deprived of their liberty or under protective custody or guardianship
22. Patients unwilling or unable to comply with the medical follow-up required by the trial because of geographic, familial, social, or psychological reasons
