NCT ID NCT04037358
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested whether adding a radioactive drug (Radium-223) to targeted radiation (SABR) helps men with prostate cancer that has spread to a few bones or soft tissues. 64 men participated, receiving either SABR alone or SABR plus Radium-223. The goal was to see if the combination delays cancer progression longer than SABR alone.
