Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The investigators are doing this research to evaluate the efficacy and safety of topical MED3000 therapy in men with persistent erectile dysfunction 1.5 to 4 years following radical prostatectomy surgery.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

MED3000 is a topical gel that has been developed to treat patients with erectile dysfunction. The investigators postulate that on demand treatment with MED3000 can improve on-demand erectile function among men status-post radical prostatectomy, allowing for some endogenous cavernosal nerve function recovery for 1.5 to 4 years post-surgery among men with normal baseline pre-surgical erectile function.

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

* Age 40 - 70 at study commencement
* Diagnosed with low/intermediate-risk prostate cancer:

* PSA \< 20 ng/ml
* Gleason score =\< 8
* Prostate Cancer stage =\< T3a
* Normal pre-radical prostatectomy erectile function (IIEF \>=26) or equivalent response on EPIC
* Baseline erectile dysfunction at time of screening (despite use of erectogenic aids of any kind) and enrolment following washout (IIEF-ED domain \<=25)

Exclusion Criteria

* Anatomical abnormalities in the genitalia or pelvic region such as severe phimosis

* Tumor upstaging beyond T3a
* Incomplete / sub-total nerve sparing on either side
* Previous or scheduled treatment with pelvic salvage radiotherapy and/or androgen deprivation therapy
* Prior receipt of androgen deprivation therapy
* Any other condition that would prevent the patient from completing the study, as judged by the Principal Investigator
