Ultrasound-guided prostate lift for enlarged prostate symptoms
Part of Kidney & urinary clinical trials.
This study tests a newer ultrasound-guided method for a prostate lift procedure, which may improve urine flow and reduce symptoms in men with an enlarged prostate. It is an exploratory trial, meaning researchers are checking how well the new approach works compared to the usual method.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are a man aged 50 to 80 years old.
- You have been diagnosed with an enlarged prostate and have urinary symptoms.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial tests a new device designed to treat symptoms of an enlarged prostate (BPH), such as frequent or difficult urination. It may help improve urine flow and reduce discomfort without traditional surgery.
This study tests whether a procedure called Urolift (which gently opens the prostate to relieve urinary blockage) before radiation therapy (SBRT) can reduce urinary side effects for men who have both prostate cancer and an enlarged prostate. If you qualify, you might experience fewer urinary problems during and after your cancer treatment.
This trial tests a focused ultrasound treatment for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), which is a non-cancerous enlargement of the prostate. It aims to see if HIFU can safely relieve symptoms like weak urine flow and frequent urination.
This study compares two minimally invasive procedures that remove extra prostate tissue to help with urination problems. It may help if other treatments haven't worked.
This trial tests a device called Optilume BPH Catheter System for men with enlarged prostate that causes bothersome urinary symptoms. It aims to see how safe and effective it is in real-world use, offering a possible treatment for blocked urine flow without surgery.
This study compares two surgical methods for men with a small enlarged prostate (30 mL or less) who have moderate to severe urinary symptoms. It tests whether adding a small cut in the bladder neck to the standard laser surgery (ThuLEP) works better than ThuLEP alone.
