MRI- Guided Transurethral Ultrasound Ablation of Localized Prostate Cancer

Primary purpose :

Evaluation of the efficiency and safety of an alternative global prostate treatment in localized prostate cancer.

Primary Objective:

Absence of clinically significant cancer (CSC) on control biopsy at 1-year follow-up.

Secondary Objectives:

1. Biochemical response 2. Presence of any CSC on biopsy at 1- and 2-year follow-up 3. Radical treatment free survival 4. Adverse events, clinical tolerance 5. Urinary continence 6. Erectile function 7. Quality of life
