NCT ID NCT03805919
First seen Nov 12, 2025 · Last updated Jun 19, 2026 · Updated 21 times
Summary
This study tracks 500 men aged 30–75 who have specific genetic changes linked to prostate cancer but have not been diagnosed. Researchers will monitor their health over time using yearly checkups, blood tests, and prostate MRIs every two years. The goal is to understand how these genetic factors affect cancer risk and whether they can guide future prevention or early detection.

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
What this could lead to
If successful, this study could help identify which genetic changes most strongly predict prostate cancer, leading to better screening and prevention strategies.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study, not a treatment trial. It may take many years to yield clear results, and findings may not apply to all men or lead to immediate changes in care.
