Nerve Protection Treatment During Prostate Cancer Surgery
Part of Cancer, Kidney & urinary clinical trials.
This early-stage trial tests a treatment designed to protect nerves during prostate removal surgery for cancer. The goal is to help patients recover sexual function after surgery, which is a common concern.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have been diagnosed with prostate cancer
- You are scheduled for robot-assisted prostate removal surgery (with nerve-sparing approach)
- You have not had radiation, hormone therapy, or other cancer treatments before or after surgery
- You have never had a penile implant or other prostate procedures (like TURP or laser therapy)
- You are willing to participate in a pilot study testing a new nerve-protection approach

This study tests whether using a special ultrasound tool during prostate cancer surgery helps protect the nerves that control erections. If you have good erectile function and are scheduled for nerve-sparing prostate removal, this trial may be a good fit for you.
This trial compares two nerve-sparing techniques during robotic prostatectomy to see which better preserves urinary and sexual function while still effectively removing the cancer. It is for men with early-stage, favorable-risk prostate cancer who are good surgical candidates.
This trial tests if a nerve grafting technique can help preserve erectile function after robotic surgery for high-risk localized prostate cancer. It may be an option for men with good preoperative erectile function.
This study tests if using nerve monitoring during prostate removal surgery can help protect nerves. It may help men having surgery for prostate cancer avoid side effects like incontinence or erectile dysfunction.
This study looks at how your health before surgery affects your erectile function after robot-assisted prostate removal. It aims to help doctors predict and improve recovery of erectile function.
This study tests a new nerve surgery to help men regain erections after prostate cancer surgery. It's for men who have had moderate to severe erectile dysfunction for at least 12 to 18 months after their prostate removal.
