Why did patients apply to this trial?

To understand my situation and whatever I can do to help it. I’ve been researching treatments when I can across this trial at the Mayo Clinic.

PatientReceived 2+ prior treatments

Saw a urologist and he left it up to me with how I wanted to proceed. I do not intend to have any surgery and didn't like the information on the injection therapy. Either way it would be good to.
