Description

The goal of this clinical trial is to measure the toxicity and effectiveness of the following treatments for cFIR/cgUIR prostate cancer patients. Stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) alone or Stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) combined with Ultrashort GNRH Antagonist called Relugolix (an oral drug). Treatments will be randomly assigned to study patients. The main questions it aims to answer are the following: 1. Whether the proportion of men who undergo SUGAR have superior rate of attaining PSA nadir of \<= 0.2 compared to SBRT alone, and 2. Whether SUGAR is superior to historical rates of minimal clinically important decline (MCID) in sexual and hormonal function at 6 months for patients undergoing 6 months of androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) Men aged 18+ with cFIR/cgUIR will be enrolled. Specifically, patients must meet one of the following 2 criteria: 1) Gleason score must be Gleason 3+4 with a PSA \< 20 ng/mL, or 2) Gleason 6 (3+3) and PSA \> 10 ng/mL and \< 20 ng mL.

Interventions

Relugolix 120 MG [Orgovyx] (Drug)
ORGOVYX will be initiated with a loading dose of 360 mg on the first day and continue treatment with a 120 mg dose taken orally once daily at approximately the same time each day. Total length of treatment will be 30 days.
SBRT standard of care radiotherapy treatment (Radiation)
SBRT is a standard-of-care radiotherapy treatment for intermediate-risk prostate cancer.

Decipher GC score of 0.6 or higher or higher indicating high genomic risk for most recent biopsy 12. Documented prostate volume (by MRI or ultrasound within 120 days or physician attestation within 120 days) \<= 80 cc Exclusion Criteria: 1. Current use of medications that cause QT prolongation 2. Known allergic reactions to relugolix 3. Treatment with another investigational drug or other intervention for prostate cancer within 30 days of enrollment 4.

The following ECG abnormalities are excluded: 1. Q-wave infarction unless identified 6 or more months before the Screening Visit 2. QT interval corrected for heart rate (QTc) \> 470 msec. If the QTc is prolonged in a patient with a pacemaker, the patient may be enrolled in the study upon discussion with the study PI 3. Congenital long QT syndromeQ 9. History of surgical castration 10.
