NCT ID NCT05155501

First seen Apr 25, 2026 · Last updated May 15, 2026 · Updated 4 times

Summary

This study compares a newer, nerve-sparing prostate surgery to the standard approach in 600 men with localized prostate cancer. The goal is to see if the newer method controls cancer just as well while improving urinary function, reducing penile shortening, and lowering the risk of hernias. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of the two surgeries and followed for cancer recurrence and quality of life.
