NCT ID NCT05850182
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether a personalized diet and exercise program is practical for 30 men with metastatic prostate cancer who are already receiving hormone therapy. The goal is to see if patients can stick with the program and if it helps control their cancer. The study does not aim to cure the disease but to improve management alongside standard treatment.
