Pulsed magnetic field therapy for muscle loss from hormone treatment
Part of Cancer, Kidney & urinary clinical trials.
This study tests whether pulsed electromagnetic field therapy can help prevent or reverse muscle loss and weakness caused by hormone therapy (ADT) for prostate cancer. The treatment is non-invasive and may help you stay stronger during your cancer care.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be at least 18 years old.
- You have been diagnosed with prostate cancer that has not spread to other parts of the body.
- You have been on hormone therapy (ADT) for between six months and three years.
- You plan to continue hormone therapy for at least another six months.
- It has been at least four weeks since you had your prostate removed or finished radiation treatment.
- You are able to walk at least 400 meters (about a quarter mile) and are not currently getting radiation or other active cancer treatment.

Other trials that look related to this one.
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.
This study tests whether adding resistance exercise (like weight training) during hormone therapy and radiation can improve your immune system and quality of life. It focuses on men starting hormone therapy for localized prostate cancer.
This study looks at how hormone therapy (ADT) for prostate cancer affects muscle aging in men 65 and older. It aims to understand muscle changes to help find ways to prevent or treat muscle loss.
This study tests whether a supervised exercise program can help men with prostate cancer stay stronger and feel better during combined radiation and hormone therapy. You may be able to join if you are about to start these treatments and are otherwise healthy enough to exercise.
This trial tests a supervised exercise program to see if it can reduce frailty and muscle loss in men with metastatic prostate cancer who are on hormone therapy. It may help you become stronger and feel better during treatment.
This study tests if a home-based strength training program can help improve memory and thinking in men who have had hormone therapy for prostate cancer. You would exercise from home using a webcam and internet connection.
