About this Condition: Prostate Cancer
Symptoms of Prostate Cancer
In its early stages, prostate cancer does not cause symptoms.
Common symptoms like a need to urinate frequently or trouble urinating usually are due to an enlarged prostate and not a sign of prostate cancer. Some symptoms like:
- Pain in the pelvic area
- Bone pain
- Sudden, unexplained weight loss
are sometimes seen with advanced prostate cancer or prostate cancer that has spread to other parts of the body.
Clinical Trials
We offer robust clinical trial programs for prostate cancer. These research studies evaluate new medical approaches, devices, drugs, and other treatments.
As a Stanford Health Care patient, you may be eligible to participate in open clinical trials. Open trials refer to studies currently recruiting participants or that may recruit participants in the near future. Closed trials are not currently enrolling, but similar studies may open in the future.
Our Clinics
You can access Stanford’s expertise and compassionate care for any stage or type of prostate cancer at a location that is convenient for you. We always accept new patients, and we take many insurance plans, including Medicare and Medi-Cal.
