Conditions

Summary

The purpose of this research is to collect data about the MRI cryoablation procedure your doctor(s) would normally perform in order to treat the participants focal prostate cancer and to evaluate the participants condition after the participants treatment is performed. Participants have been asked to take part in this research because the participants have been diagnosed with prostate cancer and scheduled to have an ablation procedure.

Plain Language Summary

Simplified for easier understanding

This study is investigating the use of MRI-guided cryoablation — a procedure that uses extreme cold (delivered through a thin probe) to freeze and destroy prostate cancer tissue — as a targeted treatment for men with low-to-intermediate risk prostate cancer. The advantage of this approach is that it only treats the cancerous area while sparing the rest of the prostate. **You may be eligible if...** - You have biopsy-confirmed Gleason 7 prostate cancer (intermediate risk) - Surgery and radiation are not preferred options for you at this time - Your tumor is small (under 2 cm at its widest) - Your tumor does not involve the rectal wall or the urinary sphincter - You are able to undergo MRI scanning **You may NOT be eligible if...** - Your tumor is larger than 2 cm - Your tumor involves critical structures like the rectum or urinary sphincter - You cannot have MRI scans Talk to your doctor to see if this trial is right for you.
