Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:

1. Males over 18 years of age with histological confirmation of adenocarcinoma of the
prostate.

2. Biochemical progression after radical radiotherapy with a total prostate dose > 52 Gy.

- In patients without previous radical prostatectomy, biochemical progression is
defined as PSA in the range of nadir + 2 ng/mL (Phoenix definition) to ≤ 6 ng/mL
(this PSA must be within 30 days of randomization).

- In patients with previous radical prostatectomy, biochemical progression is
defined as a rising PSA (at least 2 values) in the range of 0.4 ng/mL to ≤ 3
ng/mL (most recent PSA must be within 30 days of randomization).

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Patients who are within 4 years of their brachytherapy implantation date.

2. Patients with medical conditions in which goserelin or bicalutamide is contraindicated
in the opinion of the supervising oncologist or urologist.

3. Patients with another active malignancy or malignancy treatment within 5 years (basal
or squamous cell skin cancers are not excluded from this trial).

4. Patients with geographic inaccessibility precluding them from necessary follow-up.

5. Failure to provide written informed consent.
