Summary

The lay summary the sponsor registered on ClinicalTrials.gov.

The purpose of this study is to determine the most appropriate radiation implant dose for palladium-103 monotherapy. Radiation dose is related to potential cure. From previously published studies, it appears that the prescribed radiation dose can be reduced by 14-20% without any difference in potential cure (in this study, the dose is being decreased 10%). Although most patients tolerate brachytherapy well, complications to appear to be related to radiation exposure to normal structures (i.e. urethra, rectum and proximal penis). By reducing the prescribed dose, it is conceivable that fewer patients will experience side effects and complications.
