Plain-language summary
Patients with post-prostatectomy PSA (Prostate Specific Antigen) recurrences with aggressive disease features will receive salvage radiation therapy and standard androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) or enhanced ADT to determine if there is any improvement in progression-free survival when enhanced ADT is used compared to standard ADT.

AI-rewrites the medical criteria so a patient or caregiver can understand them. Always confirm with the trial site.
Inclusion Criteria:
* Pathologically (histologically) proven adenocarcinoma confirmed by prostatectomy performed within 10 years prior to registration and any type of radical prostatectomy is permitted, including retropubic, perineal, laparoscopic or robotically assisted.
* Prostate-specific antigen (PSA) level (≥ 0.2 ng/mL) within 120 days prior to registration. Patients must have a PSA ≥ 0.2 ng/mL prior to starting ADT. For patients being followed by an ultrasensitive PSA assay, a serum PSA concentration of ≥ 0.10 ng/mL will be considered eligible.
* GnRH analog may be started no more than 42 days prior study entry.
* Hemoglobin ≥ 9.0 g/dL, independent of transfusion and/or growth factors within 90 days prior to registration.
* Platelet count ≥ 75,000 x 10\^9/µL independent of transfusion and/or growth factors within 90 days prior to registration.
* At least 1 of the following aggressive features:
* Gleason score of 8-10 (note any Gleason score is eligible)
* Seminal vesicle invasion (SVI) (note any pT stage American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) v8.0 is eligible but a pT stage
≥ pT3b is considered aggressive)
* Locoregional node involvement at radical prostatectomy (RP) (pN1)
* Persistently elevated PSA post-RP nadir (PEPP) defined as PSA \> 0.1 ng/mL after radical prostatectomy
* PSA ≥ 0.7 ng/mL
* Serum albumin ≥ 3.0 g/dL within 90 days prior to registration
* Glomerular filtration rate (GFR) ≥35 mL/min estimated by Cockcroft-Gault or measured directly…
Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?
Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.
Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.

Percentage of Participants Alive Without Progression (Progression-Free Survival)
Timeframe: From randomization to first failure or last known follow-up. Median follow-up time at the time of analysis was 33.1 months. The 1- and 2-year estimates are reported.
