Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria: * Willing and able to provide written informed consent * Histologically confirmed adenocarcinoma of the prostate * A minimum of 10 core biopsies have been performed at baseline and available. A prostate biopsy within 6 months from screening is allowed for entry requirements. Biopsies performed within 6-12 months from screening are acceptable if the treating physician would allow treatment without further biopsy. Patients must meet intermediate risk criteria from Gleason score, T stage, and prostate-specific antigen (PSA) value by National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) criteria: cT2b-T2c or Gleason 7 (3+4 or 4+3) or PSA 10-20 ng/mL. In addition, the Gleason 3+4 or 4+3 must be present * Pathology review at MD Anderson Cancer Center. The volume of disease must be high enough for the surgeon to agree to include an extended template pelvic lymph node dissection * Serum testosterone \> 200 ng/mL * Patient and urologist must agree that patient is suitable for prosta
