Study Arms (1)
Prostatic Artery Embolization (PAE)
OTHERPAE performed under local anesthesia using officially approved microspheres.
Interventions
PAE is performed under local anesthesia using commercially available and approved microspheres (study is not limited to a specific manufacturer or product).
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Advanced PCA (i.e., locally advanced, metastatic, combination of both. This includes T3-4, any T in case of N1 and any T in case of M1a/b/c)
- PAE is indicated for the treatment of Lower urinary tract symptoms like bladder outlet obstruction or recurrent prostatic bleeding.
- IPSS at baseline ≥ 8
- Witten informed consent
You may not qualify if:
- Curative treatment of PCA intended
- Contraindications for MRI
- Renal impairment (GFR \< 30ml/min)
- Allergy to i.v. contrast medium
- Vascular conditions that seem to make successful PAE impossible (e.g. severe atherosclerosis, severe tortuosity in the aortic bifurcation or internal iliac vessels)
- Inability to follow the procedures of the study, e.g. due to language problems, psychological disorders, dementia, etc. of the participant.
- Drug-treatments for advanced prostate cancer (e.g., hormonal therapy or chemotherapy) established within 30 days prior to PAE.
