  • Prostate + Nodal Radiation - 25Gy in 5 fractions to the prostate, seminal vesicle and regional lymph nodes

Interventions

Sterotactic Body Radiotherapy

Hypofractionated stereotactic radiation treatment.

Conventionally Fractionated Radiation

External beam radiation therapy treatment

Primary outcome measure
