NCT ID NCT05530655

Summary

This early-stage study is testing if lisinopril, a common blood pressure medication, can prevent urinary side effects in men receiving radiation treatment for prostate cancer. Researchers will give the drug to about 30 men during and after their radiation therapy to find the best dose and see if it reduces bladder irritation and symptoms. The goal is to make cancer treatment more tolerable by protecting healthy tissue.
