Brief Summary
This clinical trial studies the side effects of computed tomography (CT)-guided stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) with intrafraction motion monitoring and to see how well it works in treating patients with prostate cancer that has not spread to other parts of the body (localized). In CT-guided SBRT, x-ray-based imaging and cone-beam CTs are used to define and localize the area to be treated with SBRT. SBRT is a type of external radiation therapy that uses special equipment to position a patient and precisely deliver radiation to tumors in the body (except the brain). The total dose of radiation is divided into smaller doses given over several days. This type of radiation therapy helps spare normal tissue. A recent randomized trial showed that while SBRT is associated with less urinary incontinence and erectile dysfunction than complete surgical removal of the prostate, there are more urinary irritative side effects and more bowel side effects than with surgery. One source of uncertainty in SBRT that may contribute to genitourinary (GU) and gastrointestinal (GI) side effects is the necessity of treating a "margin" of volume around the prostate to account for its movement during SBRT. Intrafraction motion monitoring is any technique or system designed to track the movement of the body and target during fractions of external beam radiation to keep the beam on target. This allows for the patient to be repositioned, if needed, to ensure delivery of the SBRT to only the planned treatment area. CT-guided SBRT with intrafraction motion monitoring may lower GU and GI side effects by allowing tighter margins, as has been demonstrated with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-guided SBRT.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Incidence of acute grade ≥ 2 genitourinary (GU) toxicities
Will determine physician-scored GU toxicities by the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events, version 5 (CTCAE v5.0) criteria. Rates will be reported descriptively. Point estimates as well as the associated 95% confidence intervals will be reported.
From the start of stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) to 90 days post-SBRT
Secondary Outcomes (5)
Incidence of acute grade ≥ 2 gastrointestinal (GI) toxicities
From the start of SBRT to 90 days post-SBRT
Cumulative incidence of late grade ≥ 2 GU and GI toxicities
Up to 5 years post-SBRT
Change in International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) and Expanded Prostate Cancer Index Composite-26 (EPIC-26) score
Baseline to 5 years post-SBRT
Biochemical recurrence-free survival
Up to 5 years post-SBRT
Intrafraction prostate motion
Baseline, at time of SBRT
Study Arms (1)
Treatment (CT-guided SBRT, intrafraction motion monitoring)
EXPERIMENTALPatients undergo CT-guided SBRT with intrafraction motion monitoring over 5 fractions every other day, or on consecutive days, if necessary, in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients also undergo CT and MRI on study and blood sample collection throughout the study.

Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Histologically confirmed, clinically localized adenocarcinoma of the prostate
- No evidence of metastatic disease in lymph nodes above the bifurcation of the renal arteries, or in bones or visceral organs (nodal disease identified on a prostate-specific membrane antigen \[PSMA\] positron emission tomography \[PET\]/CT scan below the bifurcation of the renal arteries are amenable)
- Staging workup as recommended by the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) on the basis of risk grouping
- Advanced imaging studies (i.e. PSMA PET/CT and fluciclovine PET/CT scan) can supplant a bone scan if performed first
- Age ≥ 18
- Written informed consent obtained from participant or participant's legal representative and ability for participant to comply with the requirements of the study
You may not qualify if:
- Patients with neuroendocrine or small cell carcinoma of the prostate
- Patients with any evidence of distant metastases except that evidence of lymphadenopathy below the level of the renal arteries can be deemed locoregional per the discretion of the investigator
- Prior whole gland cryosurgery, high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) or brachytherapy of the prostate
- Prior pelvic radiotherapy
- History of Crohn's Disease, ulcerative colitis, or ataxia telangiectasia
- Presence of a condition or abnormality that in the opinion of the investigator would compromise the safety of the participant or the quality of the data
