Electro-stimulation plus exercise for prostate cancer muscle health
Part of Cancer, Kidney & urinary clinical trials.
This trial tests whether adding neuromuscular electrical stimulation to an exercise program can improve strength and physical function in men with prostate cancer who are on hormone-blocking treatment. It may help prevent or reduce muscle weakness that can happen during androgen deprivation therapy.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are receiving hormone-blocking pills or treatment (androgen deprivation therapy) for prostate cancer for more than 26 weeks

- You can understand the study information, read the leaflet, and sign consent
- You have a social security coverage plan
- You do not have major limits for exercise (your doctor says training is safe for you)
