Radiation after prostate surgery for men with prostate cancer
Part of Cancer, Kidney & urinary clinical trials.
This study looks at different radiation approaches after prostate surgery to see which strategy works best. You may be able to join if your cancer is at a stage where radiation to the prostate bed is planned, and you have not had prior radiation.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have confirmed (proven) prostate cancer
- Your care plan includes radiation to the prostate bed after surgery (as adjuvant or salvage treatment)
- Your overall health is good enough (Karnofsky score 70% or higher)
- You are at least 18 years old
- You must not be on hormone-blocking treatment called androgen deprivation therapy

This trial tests a short course of high-dose radiation therapy (radiosurgery) for prostate cancer that hasn't spread. It aims to treat the cancer with fewer sessions while keeping side effects low.
This trial looks at radiation therapy given after prostate surgery (or if needed later) for prostate cancer where lymph nodes were not involved. It may help patients whose PSA rises or who need additional treatment to reduce the chance the cancer comes back.
This Phase 2 study compares two schedules of radiation treatment after prostate surgery in men whose PSA starts rising again. It aims to see which radiation approach works well while tracking quality of life and safety.
This trial tests a shorter course of radiation therapy (hypofractionated radiotherapy) for men who have already had their prostate removed and still have signs of cancer (like rising PSA). The goal is to see if this can help prevent the cancer from coming back.
This trial compares two different radiation schedules to treat prostate cancer that returned based on rising PSA blood tests after prostatectomy (prostate removal). If you qualify, it may help you and your team choose a radiation approach with the goal of controlling PSA relapse.
This study tests a tailored (personalized) radiation plan for men whose PSA (“prostate blood test”) rises after prostate surgery but who have no detectable spread on scans. It may help control cancer growth by targeting the right area based on your situation.
