Rehabilitation and Sex Therapy to Optimize Recovery After Prostate Cancer Treatment (RESTORE-PC)

2026년 6월 30일 업데이트: Duke University

RESTORE-PC: Rehabilitation and Sex Therapy to Optimize Recovery After Prostate Cancer Treatment: A Randomized Feasibility Trial

This study is being done at Duke Health and includes adult men who have been treated for localized prostate cancer. The goal is to see if it is feasible and acceptable to offer sex therapy by telehealth after prostate cancer treatment.

All participants receive pelvic floor physical therapy and education about penile rehabilitation, including use of a vacuum erection device. Participants are randomly assigned to one of two groups. One group receives pelvic floor physical therapy plus telehealth sex therapy, with about ten sessions over six months. The other group receives pelvic floor physical therapy alone.

Participants complete questionnaires about urinary and sexual health at the start of the study and over the next two years. Short interviews are also done at 6 and 12 months. Medicines for erectile function are prescribed as part of usual clinical care and are not part of the study treatment.

연구 개요

상세 설명

This is a two-arm, parallel-group, randomized feasibility trial conducted at Duke University Health System. Eligible adult men treated for localized prostate adenocarcinoma with erectile nerve-sparing radical prostatectomy, radiotherapy, or cryoablation at Duke Health who are initiating pelvic floor physical therapy (PFPT) will be randomized 1:1 to PFPT plus sex therapy or PFPT alone. PFPT is delivered as part of routine clinical survivorship care. All enrolled participants will receive penile rehabilitation education and a vacuum erection device (VED) as part of standard PFPT, in addition to clinician-prescribed PDEi if applicable.

The sex therapy intervention is delivered by telehealth as 10 sessions of approximately 45 minutes over 6 months. Baseline assessment occurs after completion of localized treatment and before initiation of study-linked rehabilitation.

Patient-reported outcome measures will be collected at baseline and at 3, 6, 9, 12, 18, and 24 months post-baseline for feasibility of longer follow-up. Semi-structured qualitative interviews will be offered at 6 and 12 months post-baseline.
