Summary

This study tests a procedure called irreversible electroporation (IRE) using the NanoKnife system to treat intermediate-risk prostate cancer. The goal is to destroy cancer cells with fewer side effects than standard treatments like surgery or radiation. About 100 men aged 50 and older with localized prostate cancer will receive the treatment and be followed for 12 months to check if the cancer is gone and monitor for side effects.
