Phase3
Summary

The purpose of this study is to compare the effects that radiation therapy, hormone therapy or the combination of both have on participants with prostate cancer. There are 3 treatment groups (also referred to as arms) that the patient may be randomized (put into a group by chance) to in this study:

*Patients who receive radiation therapy to the prostate bed only;

*Patients who receive hormone therapy for 4 to 6 months plus radiation therapy to the prostate bed;

*Patients who receive hormone therapy for 4 to 6 months plus radiation therapy to the prostate bed and to the pelvic lymph nodes

Eligibility
  • Adenocarcinoma of the prostate treated primarily with radical prostatectomy, pathologically proven to be lymph node negative by pelvic lymphadenectomy (N0) or lymph node status pathologically unknown (undissected pelvic lymph nodes [Nx], i.e.lymph node dissection is not required
  • A post-radical prostatectomy entry PSA of greater than or equal to 0.1 but less than 2.0 ng/mL at least 6 weeks (45 days) after prostatectomy and within 30 days of registration
  • Must be 18 years of age or older
  • Prostatectomy Gleason score of 9 or less.
  • Neoadjuvant chemotherapy before or after prostatectomy; prior chemotherapy for any other disease site if given within 5 years prior to registration; and prior cryosurgery or brachytherapy make you ineligible for this study.
