Brief summary

Primary purpose : Evaluation of the efficiency and safety of an alternative global prostate treatment in localized prostate cancer. Primary Objective: Absence of clinically significant cancer (CSC) on control biopsy at 1-year follow-up. Secondary Objectives: 1. Biochemical response 2. Presence of any CSC on biopsy at 1- and 2-year follow-up 3. Radical treatment free survival 4. Adverse events, clinical tolerance 5. Urinary continence 6. Erectile function 7. Quality of life
