NCT ID NCT03902951
First seen Feb 05, 2026 · Last updated Jun 23, 2026 · Updated 17 times
Summary
This phase II trial is testing whether combining antiandrogen drugs (leuprolide, apalutamide, abiraterone) with precise radiation (SBRT) can control prostate cancer that has come back and spread to a few other spots in the body. The study enrolls 28 men whose cancer has 1-5 visible metastases. The main goal is to see how many achieve a very low PSA level (<0.05 ng/mL), which would indicate strong disease control.

What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
Abiraterone acetate, apalutamide, leuprolide acetate, and stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT)
What this could lead to
If successful, this combination could offer a way to control recurrent prostate cancer that has spread to a few sites, potentially delaying the need for stronger treatments.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-phase trial with only 28 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The drugs can cause side effects like fatigue, hot flashes, and liver issues, and the radiation may damage nearby healthy tissue.
