Comparative Effectiveness Analysis of Surgery and Radiation (CEASAR) for Localized Prostate Cancer

Completed

Conditions studied: Prostate Cancer

In brief

This study will primarily compare the effectiveness of surgery and radiation for localized prostate cancer, the most common male cancer. It will focus on modern technologies and control for differences in patients and treatments that may affect both cancer-related and patient-reported outcomes (such as impotence and incontinence). By figuring out what treatments "work best, in which patients and in whose hands", it will help men with prostate cancer make better decisions regarding their care.
