Microwave procedure with local anesthesia for prostate
Treatments studied
Part of Cancer, Kidney & urinary clinical trials.
This trial tests a microwave treatment for prostate issues done under local anesthesia instead of general anesthesia. It may help people who want a less invasive option.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are over 18 years old.
- You are scheduled for a Koelis TMA procedure.
- You can have local anesthesia or sedation instead of being fully asleep.
- You are willing and able to give written consent to participate.
- You are covered by a health insurance plan or similar system.

This study tests a new, less invasive way to treat lung cancer using microwave energy delivered through a thin tube inserted into the airway. It is for people with small, confirmed lung tumors who are already being considered for surgery, and who cannot or prefer not to have blood thinners.
This study tests a new, less invasive treatment using targeted microwave ablation (TMA) to destroy prostate cancer tumors. It is designed for men with early-stage, low to intermediate-risk prostate cancer that hasn't spread, offering a possible alternative to surgery or radiation.
This trial tests a new, less invasive treatment for enlarged prostate (BPH) that uses ultrasound and heat to shrink the part of the prostate blocking urine flow. It aims to improve urinary symptoms and avoid the need for more invasive surgery.
This study looks at two ways to improve prostate procedures: 1) whether adding local anesthesia during a biopsy (while you’re already sedated) makes a difference, and 2) whether a standard care plan before and after focal gland ablation helps recovery compared to usual care.
This trial tests a minimally invasive procedure that uses microwave energy to destroy lung tumors. It is for people who are already candidates for surgery but may want a less invasive option.
This trial tests if giving fewer radiation treatments using a special MRI-guided machine is safe and effective for men with prostate cancer. It may help reduce side effects while still controlling the cancer.
