Ultra-short radiation with focal boost for prostate cancer
Part of Cancer, Kidney & urinary clinical trials.
This trial tests a new, shorter course of radiation for intermediate-risk prostate cancer. It aims to give a higher dose to the main tumor while keeping side effects low.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older
- You have been diagnosed with prostate cancer that needs treatment
- Your cancer is considered intermediate-risk (PSA less than 20, Gleason score 7 or less, and the tumor is not too large)
- You are willing to fill out questionnaires about your symptoms and quality of life
- You are taking part in another related study (MOMENTUM)

This study tests whether adding a stronger, focused radiation “boost” to a visible prostate spot—using real-time MRI guidance—can improve treatment for locally advanced prostate cancer. It may help better control the tumor while still delivering standard radiation to the rest of the prostate area.
This trial tests a precise, MRI-guided radiation treatment given over 7 days for people with prostate cancer in specific risk categories. It may help shrink or control the cancer while carefully targeting the tumor.
This trial tests a shorter course of radiation therapy with an extra 'boost' to the most aggressive part of the tumor, combined with hormone therapy, for men with high-risk or locally advanced prostate cancer that has not spread outside the pelvis.
This trial tests a newer way to plan and deliver radiation for prostate cancer using real-time MRI guidance. It may help by aiming high-dose treatment precisely while treating nearby disease and (in some cases) limited metastatic spots.
This trial tests a newer, more precise radiation treatment that gives a higher dose to the main tumor while keeping radiation to the rest of the prostate the same. It is for men with intermediate- or high-risk prostate cancer who haven't had prior prostate radiation or removal.
This trial tests a stronger, more focused radiation dose to the main tumor inside the prostate using MRI guidance. It aims to improve control of intermediate-risk prostate cancer while possibly reducing side effects.
