| NCT05842057 | Human Amnion Membrane Allograft and Early Return of Erectile Function After Radical Prostatectomy | PHASE2 | ACTIVE NOT_RECRUITING | 118 | — | — | Aug 24, 2023 | Aug 31, 2028 | Jul 22, 2025 | 1 | United States |
Erectile function recovery among participants will be measured by the change in scores within the Sexual Domain of the Expanded Prostate Cancer Index Composite Short Form (EPIC26). The EPIC26 is a 26-item questionnaire used to measure health-related quality of life (HRQOL) among men with prostate cancer. The EPIC26 has five domains: Urinary Incontinence, Urinary Irritative/Obstructive, Bowel, Sexual, and Hormonal. Response options for each EPIC item form a Likert scale, and multi-item scale scores are transformed linearly to a 0-100 scale with higher scores representing better HRQOL.

| Membrane Arm: dHACM Group | EXPERIMENTAL | Participants will undergo standard of care robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) surgery and the dehydrated Human Amnion Chorion Membrane (dHACM) membrane placed after removal of the prostate. Participants will be in the group for approximately 12 months. |
| Control Arm: No dHACM Group | OTHER | Participants will undergo standard of care RARP surgery but will have no dehydrated Human Amnion Chorion Membrane (dHACM) placed after removal of the prostate. Participants will be in the group for approximately 12 months. |

| BioDFence G3 Placental Tissue Membrane | BIOLOGICAL | The BioDFence G3 Placental Tissue Membrane is a three-layer tissue allograft consisting of amnion-chorion-amnion. Amniotic membranes will be placed over the neurovascular bundle after extirpative RARP. The membrane will be cut into two longitudinal pieces and placed over each neurovascular bundle separately. |
| Robot-Assisted Radical Prostatectomy | PROCEDURE | Robot-assisted surgical removal of the prostate, administered standard of care. |
