Summary

This trial tests whether wrapping the nerves around the prostate with a special tissue allograft during surgery can reduce erectile dysfunction and incontinence. 25 men with localized prostate cancer will receive the wrap during nerve-sparing prostate removal. The study focuses on whether the procedure is feasible and safe.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
MLG-Complete allograft (perinatal tissue wrap)
What this could lead to
If it works, this could offer a way to preserve erectile and urinary function after prostate cancer surgery, improving quality of life.
What could go wrong
This is a very small, early feasibility trial with only 25 participants. The wrap may not improve outcomes or could cause side effects. Results may not apply to all patients.
