Prostate cancer clues in blood and urine?

NCT ID NCT06326216

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study is looking at tiny particles called extracellular vesicles that come from prostate cancer cells. Researchers want to see if levels of these particles in blood and urine can show how well surgery removed the cancer. They will compare samples from prostate cancer patients before and after surgery, and also from healthy women as a control group.
