Primary outcome 1:1. To determine whether increased in vitro sensitivity to radiation-induced DNA damage in lymphocytes is a predictor of prostate cancer risk. 
Timepoint: 
Primary outcome 2:2. To develop a set of biomarkers that predict the risk of abnormal tissue reaction to radiotherapy in prostate cancer patients. 
Timepoint: 
Primary outcome 3:3. To identify dietary and genetic factors that have a strong modifying effect on the risk of abnormal tissue reaction to radiotherapy.

Key inclusion criteria: The first stage of the project is a case-control study involving 100 untreated Prostate cancer cases and 100 controls. Cases and controls will be matched for age, gender, familial history of cancer and smoking status.The second stage of the project is a prospective study aimed at determining whether the selected biomarkers predict abnormal tissue reaction in 100 localized Prostate cancer patients treated with RT who have ECOG 0-2 performance status and do not have a constant requirement for aperients or anti-diarrhoeal medication. Age, weight, tumour grade, family history of prostate cancer, use of anti-male hormone therapy and smoking status will be recorded.
