New gel shield may make prostate freezing safer

NCT ID NCT07567027

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 Results may not be published yet.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

Summary

This early study tests whether a gel called Barrigel can stay unfrozen and protect the rectum during prostate cancer cryoablation (freezing treatment). About 20 men with localized or recurrent prostate cancer will receive the gel before the procedure. The main goal is to see if the gel resists freezing, which could reduce side effects and improve safety.

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

Inclusion Criteria: * Male patients aged 40-95 years. * Biopsy-confirmed localized prostate cancer (Grade Group ≥ 2). Salvage cryoablation cases may be included. * Unifocal disease visible on multiparametric MRI (mpMRI) and amenable to focal or whole gland cryoablation. * Prostate-specific antigen (PSA) \< 20 ng/ml. * No metastatic disease on Prostate-Specific Membrane Antigen (PSMA) PET/CT, when recommended per National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) guidelines. * Eligible for and consenting to transperineal cryoablation under anesthesia. * Willingness to comply with post-procedure follow-up, including PSA testing and imaging. * Cryoablation which requires treatment of the posterior prostate as per clinician judgement. Exclusion Criteria: * Evidence of metastatic disease. * Prior radiation therapy to the area of the prostate. * Active rectal or urinary tract infection. * Known allergy to hyaluronic acid products or contrast agents. * Inability to tolerate MRI. * Inability or unwillingness to comply with study follow-up.
