This study tests a new combination of radiation (SBRT) and short-term hormone therapy (6 months) to see how it affects sexual function in men with unfavorable intermediate-risk prostate cancer.
This trial tests if low-intensity shockwaves can help men regain erectile function after robot-assisted prostate surgery. If you had nerve-sparing surgery and have good erections before treatment, this may help you recover faster.
This study tests a program to help men follow sexual (erection) rehabilitation after prostate cancer surgery. It may help improve or maintain erectile functioning by supporting the right rehab steps in the months after surgery.
This trial studies ways to help preserve erectile function while you receive radiation treatment for prostate cancer. It may help by aiming to protect erections, especially for people at low to intermediate risk.
This trial tests whether adding targeted radiation guided by a PET scan (along with hormone therapy) can improve outcomes for prostate cancer that has come back after surgery. The PET scan helps doctors look for spots outside the usual radiation area so treatment can be tailored.
This study tests whether combining pelvic floor physical therapy with sex therapy helps men recover sexual function after prostate cancer treatment. Eligible men have had surgery, radiation, or cryoablation and are already starting pelvic floor therapy.
