Scientists seek prostate tissue clues to improve radiation therapy
NCT ID NCT04243473
Summary
This study aimed to collect and store prostate tissue samples from men undergoing brachytherapy (a type of radiation seed implant) for prostate cancer. The goal was to build a tissue bank for researchers to study how prostate cancer and its surrounding tissue respond to radiation treatment. By analyzing these samples, scientists hoped to find biological markers that could help predict which patients need more aggressive treatment and guide future therapy improvements. The study was withdrawn before any participants were enrolled.
