New combo therapy aims to halt prostate cancer spread
NCT ID NCT03795207
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This phase II trial tests whether adding the immunotherapy drug durvalumab to precise radiation (SBRT) can better control prostate cancer that has returned and spread to a few spots (oligometastases). About 96 men with hormone-sensitive prostate cancer will be randomly assigned to receive SBRT alone or SBRT plus durvalumab for up to 12 months. The main goal is to see if the combination delays cancer progression.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Durvalumab (an immunotherapy drug) and stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT, a precise high-dose radiation procedure)
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could offer a new treatment option that delays cancer progression in men with a limited number of prostate cancer metastases.
- What could go wrong
- This is a phase II trial with only 96 participants, so results are preliminary. Adding immunotherapy to radiation may increase side effects, and the combination might not improve outcomes over radiation alone.
