NCT ID NCT05364229

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
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 This study
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 Results may not be published yet.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 study tests whether using MRI guidance to deliver an extra dose of radiation directly to the tumor can improve prostate cancer treatment. Forty men with localized prostate cancer will receive standard radiation to the whole prostate plus a targeted boost to the visible tumor. Researchers will check if this approach is feasible and safe, and will follow participants for up to 5 years.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
Radiation therapy (MR-guided radiotherapy boost)
What this could lead to
If successful, this approach could improve tumor control and reduce side effects for men with localized prostate cancer.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early feasibility study with only 40 participants. It is not designed to prove effectiveness, and results may not apply to all prostate cancer patients.
