NCT ID NCT05810467

First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study follows 200 men with low-risk prostate cancer who are on active surveillance (monitoring instead of immediate treatment). Researchers want to see if men with a higher genetic risk for prostate cancer are more likely to have their cancer progress over time. The goal is to better understand who can safely stay on surveillance and who may need treatment sooner.

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

What this could lead to
If successful, this study could help doctors better predict which men with low-risk prostate cancer can safely avoid treatment and which need closer monitoring.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study, not a treatment trial. It will not directly improve outcomes for participants, and results may take years to influence clinical practice.
