Terbinafine for Biochemically Recurrent Prostate Cancer (TerbinaPro)
TerbinaPro is a phase II drug-repurposing study evaluating oral Terbinafine in patients with biochemical recurrence of prostate cancer after prior local treatment with curative intent. When local salvage strategies have been exhausted, recurrence usually reflects micro-metastatic disease without clearly visible metastases on imaging.

Terbinafine is a long-licensed, generic antifungal drug that
