Laparoscopic prostate surgery for localized cancer, as an outpatient
Part of Cancer, Kidney & urinary clinical trials.
This trial looks at a planned, minimally invasive (laparoscopic) prostate removal for men with localized prostate cancer done as an outpatient. It aims to understand how this approach fits into care after discussion by a group of specialists.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This trial compares different ways of doing a radical prostatectomy (surgery to remove the prostate): robot-assisted laparoscopy, conventional laparoscopy, or open surgery. It may help improve which approach is best for people having planned prostate removal.
This study compares different approaches used during prostate cancer surgery for men whose cancer is only in the prostate. It may help doctors choose the safest and most effective surgical plan for your situation.
This trial studies a “two-step” type of prostate removal surgery for men with localized prostate cancer, focusing on whether it is safe and effective. It may help if you have certain prostate size, PSA level, and tumor features that match their criteria.
This trial compares radical prostatectomy (surgery to remove the prostate) alone versus surgery plus pelvic lymph node removal, with or without additional radiation, for men with intermediate- or high-risk prostate cancer that has not spread. It aims to see which approach is more effective and safe.
This trial compares two ways of treating localized prostate cancer: H-FIRE versus laparoscopic prostate surgery. It may help find which approach works best for people with early-stage, non-spread prostate cancer.
This study looks at patients who have had a prostate biopsy or surgery to remove the prostate (radical prostatectomy). It aims to learn more about these procedures and how patients are doing.
