Water Vapor Therapy for the Management of Prostate Cancer: The VAPOR 2 Study Initial Results of Ablative Efficacy and Toxicity
Listen to this summary
The VAPOR 2 study aimed to assess the safety and effectiveness of water vapor therapy for ablating prostate tissue in men with intermediate-risk localized prostate cancer. Initial results from 110 participants indicated that 75% had benign tissue on follow-up biopsy, with a significant reduction in PSA levels and prostate volume, while adverse events were generally mild and resolved without complications. These findings suggest that water vapor therapy may be an effective treatment option with low procedural morbidity for this patient population.
