PIVOTAL

Disease site: Urological

Treatment Modality: Radiotherapy

Status: Open to recruitment

PIVOTAL is a phase II trial randomising between prostate and prostate + pelvic Intensity Modulated Radiotherapy (IMRT) in patients with locally advanced prostate cancer.  

The primary objective is to evaluate the acute side effects of prostate + pelvic IMRT in a multi-centre setting.  Should the level of side effects fall within a predefined acceptable range, the intention is to progress to a phase III trial investigating treatment efficacy.

The target number of participants is 110 over 2 years of recruitment.
