Gel shield could spare prostate cancer patients from radiation damage
NCT ID NCT06451614
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a gel called SpaceIT that is placed between the prostate and rectum before radiation therapy for prostate cancer. The gel acts as a spacer to reduce radiation reaching the rectum, potentially lowering side effects. About 230 adults with low- to intermediate-risk prostate cancer will receive the gel and then undergo standard external beam radiation. The goal is to see if the gel safely reduces rectal radiation exposure.
