New MRI-Guided radiation aims to tame recurrent prostate cancer with fewer side effects

NCT ID NCT07142967

First seen Jul 10, 2026 · Last updated Jul 10, 2026

Summary

This trial tests a precise form of radiation therapy guided by MRI and PSMA/PET imaging for men whose prostate cancer has returned after prior radiation. The goal is to see whether this approach can effectively treat the recurrent tumor while reducing serious urinary and bowel side effects. Participants will receive five focused radiation sessions along with hormone therapy for 4–6 months.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy (SBRT) and Androgen Deprivation Therapy (ADT)
What this could lead to
If successful, this approach could offer a safer way to treat prostate cancer that has come back after initial radiation, potentially reducing severe urinary and bowel side effects.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-phase study with only 28 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The treatment still carries risks of serious side effects, and it is not a cure.
