Pulsed field ablation for enlarged prostate (BPH)
Part of Kidney & urinary clinical trials.
This trial tests a new device that uses pulsed electric fields to shrink an enlarged prostate (benign prostatic hyperplasia, or BPH). It's for men who have tried medication but still have bothersome symptoms.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- 45 years or older
- Tried medication for BPH but it didn't help enough
- Life expectancy of at least 1 year
- Willing to follow the study schedule and live near the study site
- No major urologic issues like recent infection, stones, or past surgery for BPH
