NCT ID NCT07492927

First seen Mar 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 22, 2026 · Updated 11 times

Summary

This study is testing a new blood test that looks for genetic material from tiny particles called exosomes to diagnose aggressive prostate cancer. The goal is to see if this test can accurately identify men who need a biopsy, avoiding unnecessary procedures. Researchers plan to enroll 1700 men with elevated PSA or other signs of prostate cancer.

What this could mean

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

Active substance

plasma exosome RNA panel (blood test)

What this could lead to

If successful, this blood test could provide a non-invasive way to diagnose aggressive prostate cancer, potentially reducing the need for invasive biopsies.

What could go wrong

This is a diagnostic study, not a treatment. The test may not be accurate enough to replace current methods, and results may not apply to all populations.

Conditions

The condition(s) this trial relates to.
