What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting This study
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Summary

This trial tests whether adding targeted radiation to standard hormone therapy can help men with recurring prostate cancer stay off cancer drugs longer. Men with a rising PSA and 1 to 5 metastases will receive either hormone therapy alone or hormone therapy plus radiation to the metastases and possibly the pelvic area. The goal is to see if radiation leads to a deeper PSA drop and delays the need to restart treatment, while also checking its impact on quality of life.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
enzalutamide plus androgen-deprivation therapy, with or without metastasis-directed radiotherapy and/or pelvic radiotherapy
What this could lead to
If adding radiation works, men with recurring prostate cancer might enjoy longer drug-free periods while keeping the cancer in check, improving quality of life.
What could go wrong
The trial is still in progress, so results are not yet known. Radiation may not extend the drug-free period, and side effects from added treatment could affect quality of life.
