Brief summary

Hypofractionated radiosurgery with 5 fractions is considered standard of care for localized prostate cancer. The investigators initiated this multicenter phase II prospective trial to analyse feasibility (toxicity) of hypofractionated radiosurgery with 3 fractions in patients with localised prostate cancer under the hypothesis that the ratio of patients with late GU and GI toxicity ≥ grade 2 after 1 year amounts to 8.4% and 1.3% and is significant lower than 16.4% and 5.7% currently.

Detailed description

Experimental radiosurgery of the prostate with 3 fractions each with 9.5 -10.5 Gy (total application rate of 28.5-31.5 Gy) based on risk grading. Planned visits are: Baseline, visits at every radiation day and four follow ups (4-6 weeks, 3 months, 6 months and one year after last day of radiation).

Interventions

Image-guided stereotactic Linac based RT preferable with "dedicated radiosurgery system" such as CyberKnife
