Official title
Active Surveillance in Prostate Cancer: A Prospective Cohort Study
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The goal of this clinical research study is to find out if men who have a type of prostate cancer that has been classified as "low risk" can safely not be treated for the disease. Doctors want to know if patients with "low risk" cancer can avoid or postpone therapy and the related side effects and still live as long as patients who immediately receive therapy. This is an investigational study. There are no medications used in this trial. About 1,000 patients will take part in this study. All will be enrolled at MD Anderson.
