What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting This study
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.

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 Results may not be published yet.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.

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

Summary

This study will test whether a focal microwave ablation procedure for localized prostate cancer can be performed under local anesthesia instead of general anesthesia or deep sedation. Twenty eligible patients will undergo the treatment while awake, and researchers will measure how often the procedure is completed without needing to switch to stronger anesthesia. The goal is to see if this approach is feasible, safe, and satisfactory for patients.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
microwave ablation and local anesthesia (lidocaine hydrochloride)
What this could lead to
If successful, this approach could make prostate cancer treatment more comfortable and accessible by avoiding general anesthesia.
What could go wrong
This is a very small feasibility study with only 20 participants, so results may not apply widely. The procedure might still require sedation or general anesthesia for some patients.
