Summary

This trial looks at if a membrane can help men recover from prostate surgery faster by improving erectile function and urinary control.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for men aged 40 to 80 with localized prostate cancer, planning to have nerve-sparing robotic surgery at the University of Miami. It's not suitable for those who don't meet these specific age, health condition, and treatment location criteria.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study is testing if a special placental tissue membrane (BioDFence G3) can help men recover faster from erectile dysfunction and urinary issues after their prostates are removed using robot-assisted surgery.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include reactions at the surgical site where the membrane is placed, such as infection or inflammation. However, detailed side effects will be monitored throughout the trial.

Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: Membrane Arm: dHACM GroupExperimental Treatment2 Interventions
Participants will undergo standard of care robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) surgery and the dehydrated Human Amnion Chorion Membrane (dHACM) membrane placed after removal of the prostate. Participants will be in the group for approximately 12 months.
Group II: Control Arm: No dHACM GroupExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Participants will undergo standard of care RARP surgery but will have no dehydrated Human Amnion Chorion Membrane (dHACM) placed after removal of the prostate. Participants will be in the group for approximately 12 months.
