Radiation zaps prostate cancer spots in men not helped enough by hormone drugs
NCT ID NCT07644754
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether giving radiotherapy to the prostate and to cancer spots seen on PET scans can help men with metastatic prostate cancer whose PSA levels remain high after six months of hormone therapy. Participants continue their hormone treatment and receive three PSMA-PET scans along with targeted radiation. The main goal is to see if the cancer stops growing on imaging one year after radiotherapy.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Radiotherapy
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this approach could offer a way to better control metastatic prostate cancer by targeting both the primary tumor and remaining cancer spots with radiation.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, early-phase study with only 27 participants, so results may not apply to all patients. Radiotherapy can cause side effects like fatigue or local irritation, and the cancer may still progress.
