Summary
This early study tests a new device called RT-310, a small implant placed inside the prostate to treat bothersome urinary symptoms from an enlarged prostate. The trial includes 20 men aged 50 to 80 who have not gotten enough relief from medication. The main goal is to check if the implant is safe and feasible, not yet to prove it works.
