Study of External Beam Radiation Therapy With and Without Hormonal Therapy to Treat Prostate Cancer

Summary

This clinical study was to determine if the use of 6 months of total androgen suppression (hormonal therapy) when added to radiation therapy for localized-high risk prostate cancer would improve overall survival.
