Postoperative or Salvage Radiotherapy for Node Negative Prostate Cancer Following Radical Prostatectomy
About This Trial
The purpose of this study is to see what effects, good and/or bad, proton radiation, and/or conventional radiation and hormonal therapy (if applicable), has on prostate cancer that has already returned or the risk of prostate cancer returning.

- Maximum PSA value of 20 ng/ml.
Who Should NOT Join This Trial:
- Evidence of distant metastasis (M1).
- Prior systemic chemotherapy for any reason.
- Previous irradiation to the pelvis that would compromise the ability to deliver the prescribed study treatment.
- Active inflammatory bowel disease (Crohn's disease, diverticulitis or ulcerative colitis) affecting the rectum. (Non-active diverticulitis and Crohn's disease not affecting the rectum are allowed).
- History of hip replacement.
- Prior or concurrent cancer, other than non-melanomatous skin cancer, unless disease free for at least 5 years.
