Plain Language Summary

Simplified for easier understanding

This study is testing whether adding neuromuscular electrical stimulation (a device that uses gentle electrical pulses to activate muscles) to a regular exercise program helps men with prostate cancer who are on hormone-suppressing therapy (ADT) maintain their muscle strength and quality of life. **You may be eligible if...** - You have prostate cancer and have been on hormone-suppressing medication (androgen deprivation therapy) for more than 26 weeks - Your general health level is good (WHO performance status 0 or 1) - You are enrolled in a social security scheme **You may NOT be eligible if...** - You weigh 130 kg or more - You follow a vegetarian diet - You have had surgical removal of both testicles (bilateral orchiectomy) - You have painful bone metastases or bones at risk of fracture - You have severe anemia, kidney problems, or low platelet counts - You have a pacemaker or other implanted electronic device - You have epilepsy, uncontrolled arrhythmia, or active skin/fungal infection - You are already doing supervised exercise training at an equivalent or higher level Talk to your doctor to see if this trial is right for you.
