Patients with locally confined prostate adenocarcinoma (clinical stage T1c - T2bN0M0, Gleason score 7, PSA 20 ng/ml) are assigned to one of two treatment arms. Low risk patients (T1c-T2a and PSA \<10 ng/ml and Gleason Score 6 or less) will receive 5 fractions of 8.0 Gy for a total of 40 Gy. Intermediate risk patients (T2b or PSA \>10 ng/ml orGleason Score 7) will receive 1.8 Gy of IMRT for 25 fractions over 5 weeks for a total of 45 Gy. They will then receive a boost consisting of 4, 5.5 Gy fractions after IMRT for a total of 22 Gy.

At baseline, during treatment, and at 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, 9 months, and 12 months post treatment. For the second and third years after therapy completion, follow-up visits will be every 6 months. After the third year after therapy completion, follow-up visits will be annually for life, up to 10 years.
