New treatment option for Prostate Cancer Metastatic Disease
Official title HIghly MetAstatic Life Prolonging Therapy-Resistant Prostate Cancer: Role of Stereotactic Radiotherapy for Bone and Lymph Node Metastases (HIMARS)
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06978296
What this study is testing
- What it's testing
- The investigators propose redefining this concept by focusing on volume rather than the number of metastases. To achieve this, the investigators aim to determine the Maximum Tolerated Volume (MTV) of metastatic lesions treatable with SRT (Stereotaxic radiotherapy) in a phase 1 study.
