NCT ID NCT07567027

First seen May 06, 2026 · Last updated May 13, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study tests whether a gel called Barrigel can stay unfrozen and protect the rectum during a prostate cancer treatment that freezes tumors. About 20 men with localized or recurrent prostate cancer will receive the gel before cryoablation. The main goal is to see if the gel resists freezing, which could reduce side effects and improve safety.
