Brief Title: Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy (SBRT) Post Prostatectomy
Official Title: Post-Prostatectomy Linac-Based Ultrahypofractionated Radiotherapy for Patients With Localized Prostate Cancer: A Treatment Feasibility and Outcomes Multicenter Study
Study ID: NCT04848909
Brief Summary: This phase I study will assess the toxicity profile and efficacy of SBRT (Stereotactic body radiotherapy) in patients with localized prostate cancer who are considered candidates for post-prostatectomy radiation.
Detailed Description: Radical prostatectomy is a common treatment for localized prostate cancer, patients with a detectable and/or rising PSA after radical prostatectomy may be offered radiation. An increasing number of patients are being referred post-operatively for radiotherapy, which creates an added burden on radiotherapy departments. Therefore, a strategy that could potentially decrease the number of radiotherapy fractions, yet maintain its efficacy, would be highly desirable for patient convenience, cost saving, and resource utilization as long as the toxicity profile is acceptable. This study will be conducted to asses the toxicity and efficacy of Stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) in post-prostatectomy patients.
