Study Summary

This study offers focal therapy for prostate cancer by using an intra-urethral radiotransponder temporarily placed during radiotherapy. The study aims to improve the risk-benefit ratio of therapy for early prostate cancer and potentially lessen symptom burden over time.

Primary Outcome

Confirm the technical feasibility of using focal prostate stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) instead of traditional treatment methods using a 16-french Foley catheter and real time guidance by intra-urethral radiotransponder beacons.Feasibility will be defined as the ability of the treatment to take place as planned.
