NCT ID NCT02914873

Summary

This study is testing a new, more specific plan for monitoring men with low-risk prostate cancer. It compares a standard set of rules for when to do more tests or start treatment against the usual way doctors monitor patients. The goal is to safely reduce unnecessary treatments and their side effects without letting the cancer progress.
