NCT ID NCT07214675

What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This study tests a new device that uses focused sound waves to break down extra prostate tissue without cuts or needles. It includes 80 men aged 50 and older with an enlarged prostate causing bothersome symptoms. The main goal is to check if the procedure is safe.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
HistoSonics Edison System (histotripsy device)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could offer a non-surgical, needle-free option to relieve BPH symptoms like frequent or difficult urination.
What could go wrong
This is an early safety trial with only 80 participants, so effectiveness is not yet proven. Risks include potential side effects from the procedure.

Phase

Not a phased trial

Phase numbers describe drug development. The registry uses this when they do not apply, as it does for trials of devices, procedures or behaviour changes, and for observational studies.

Participants

About 80 people

The number the study aims to enrol. It can still change while the study runs.

Started

Expected to finish

Oct 2027

An estimate. End dates often move.

Lead sponsor

A company

The lead sponsor is a pharmaceutical, biotech, or medical-device company.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: 1. Subject is ≥ 50 years of age. 2. Subject has signed the Ethics Committee (EC) approved trial Informed Consent Form (ICF) prior to any trial related tests/procedures and is willing to comply with trial procedures and required follow-up assessments. 3. Subject is diagnosed with BPH. 4. Subject has a Body Mass Index (BMI) \< 27. 5. Subject has an I-PSS ≥ 15. 6. Subject has a prostate volume \> 30 mL and ≤ 150 mL. 7. Subject has a Qmax ≤ 15 mL/s with a voided volume of ≥ 125 mL during a uroflow test. 8. Subject accepts the potential loss of ejaculatory function. 9. Subject can tolerate general anesthesia. Index-Procedure Imaging Inclusion (Assessed day of procedure) 10. Subject has an adequate acoustic window to visualize the prostate using the HistoSonics Edison System. 11. Target treatment volume is ≥ 1 cm from the rectum as visualized on ultrasound, CT or MR imaging. Exclusion Criteria: 1. Subject has a life expectancy of less than one (1) year. 2. Subject has a known sensitivity to contrast media and cannot be adequately pre-medicated. 3. Subject has a post-void residual ≥ 150 mL confirmed via ultrasound. 4. Subject has an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) ≤ 50 mL/min, ≤ 14 days prior to the planned index procedure date. 5. Subject has uncorrectable coagulopathy. 6. Subject has an International Normalized Ratio (INR) value ˃ 2.0, ≤14 days prior to the planned index procedure date. 7. Subject has had a prostatectomy. 8. Subject has acute prostatitis. 9. Subject has a diagnosis of or has received treatment for chronic prostatitis or chronic pelvic pain syndrome. 10. Subject has had a urinary tract infection (UTI) ≤ 3 months prior to the planned index procedure date. 11. Subject has bladder stones. 12. Subject is catheter dependent or has a history of intermittent self-catheterization. 13. Presence of prostatic calcifications in the planned treatment volume (PTV). 14. Presence of permanent radioactive implants in the rectal wall. 15. Subject has has a major abdominal or rectal surgery that inhibits visualization of the prostate. 16. Subject has undergone prior locoregional therapy (e.g., Rezum, laser, Urolift, TURP emboli, or radiation). 17. Subject has planned locoregional therapy 6 months post index procedure (e.g., Rezum, laser, Urolift, TURP emboli, or radiation). 18. Subjects who have active cancers (not in remission for the last two years) other than non-melanomatous skin cancers. 19. Subject is being actively treated in another pharmaceutical or device trial that has not completed its primary endpoint prior to the index procedure or may interfere with the primary outcome measure of this trial. 20. In the investigator's opinion, histotripsy is not a treatment option for the subject. 21. Subject has a concurrent condition that could jeopardize the safety of the subject or compliance with the protocol. 22. Subject's prostate is not treatable by the System's working ranges (refer to User Guide).
