  • Clinical stage T3a or higher; imaging can be used to determine T stage if there is macroscopic (gross) extraprostatic extension or invasion of the seminal vesicles or other non-prostate organs
  • No evidence of distant metastasis, confirmed by:
  • a. Prostate-specific membrane antigen positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PSMA PET/CT) or equivalent staging imaging

The treatment

How it is intended to work

This is how the treatment is meant to work. Whether it helps, and how safe it is, is what this trial is testing.

Treatments listed in the registry

  • Radiation therapy (Radiation): Radiotherapy with short-term androgen deprivation therapy plus, if indicated, an androgen receptor pathway inhibitor.
