What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
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
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 Results may not be published yet.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 trial tests whether a structured telemedicine program — including wearable activity monitors, breathing exercises, and remote physiotherapy — can reduce urinary incontinence after radical prostatectomy for localized prostate cancer. Two hundred men scheduled for surgery will be enrolled and followed to see if the program improves continence recovery, walking distance, balance, and muscle strength compared to standard care.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
a telemedicine-based prehabilitation and rehabilitation program using wearable devices and remote physiotherapy consultations
What this could lead to
If effective, this approach could offer a convenient, home-based way to speed up continence recovery and improve quality of life after prostate cancer surgery.
What could go wrong
This is a single-center trial, and results may not apply to all patients. The program relies on patient adherence and technology access, which could limit its real-world impact.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion criteria: * Biopsy-confirmed localized prostate cancer (ICD code C.61). * Indicated for radical prostatectomy, with or without pelvic lymphadenectomy (ePLND). * Not previously treated for prostate cancer, including radiation therapy to the pelvis, major pelvic surgery, or placement of a penile implant or artificial urinary sphincter. * No known urethral stricture or colostomy or chronic urinary catheterization. * No medical or current psychiatric disorders that precludes their participation in the study. * Status of the musculoskeletal system allowing physical exercise. * Urinary continent at baseline. * Has reliable internet and the skills/knowledge to use technologies use for the study. Exclusion criteria: * Other malignant tumors, except for benign skin carcinoma. * Active treatment for other oncological diagnoses. * Presence of preoperative urinary incontinence. * Diagnosed mental or cognitive disorders. * Prior pelvic radiotherapy or hormone therapy for prostate cancer recurrence. * Severe musculoskeletal disorders preventing active exercise * Inability to use required technologies
