NCT01326312
The purpose of this study is to determine whether GTx 758 is effective in achieving and maintaining castrate testosterone levels in men with advanced prostate cancer.
NCT04216134
This phase I trial studies the side effects of 68GA-PSMA-11 PET imaging in patients with prostate cancer that has come back (recurrent). Gallium (68Ga) is a radiotracer that binds to a molecule, PSMA, that is found in abundance on most prostate cancer cells. PSMA is short for 'prostate specific membrane antigen'. Diagnostic procedures, such as 68GA-PSMA-11 PET imaging, may help measure a patient's response to earlier treatment, and may help plan the best treatment for prostate cancer.
NCT00003329
RATIONALE: Identification of genes that may be associated with developing certain types of cancer may someday provide important information about a person's risk of getting cancer. PURPOSE: This clinical trial is studying to see if certain genes may be associated with cancer in patients with cancer of the breast, prostate, lung, or colon and siblings of these patients.
NCT00002520
RATIONALE: Physician-initiated smoking cessation strategies may be effective in getting early-stage cancer patients to quit smoking. PURPOSE: Randomized clinical trial to compare the effectiveness of a physician-initiated stop-smoking program with the usual care for patients receiving treatment for early-stage cancer.
NCT03397160
This clinical trial evaluates the use of novel decision support educational materials and services using health coaches. The study includes men newly diagnosed with low-risk prostate cancer. A 160 men will be recruited. Half of the men will receive a call from a health coach before their initial consultation visit with their urologist to review their treatment concerns and questions. The other half will receive usual care provided by the urologist, such as educational materials and services provided by the urologist.
NCT00866554
The purpose of this study is to determine if a combination of neoadjuvant dutasteride and bicalutamide has the same efficacy and less toxicity than standard treatment with an LHRH agonist and bicalutamide for prostate cytoreduction prior to permanent implant brachytherapy.
NCT04647474
The complex relationship that exists between physical and mental health in prostate cancer is increasingly being understood. Psychiatric symptoms are common in this group and have important consequences for the quality of life and cancer outcomes for patients with prostate cancer. However, less is understood about the severity of disease and which patient factors and treatment options are risk factors for developing problems. Additionally, the impact these conditions have on problems such as urinary incontinence or sexual function is less well understood. The investigators anticipate that different patient characteristics and treatment options increase an individuals risk of developing problems after a prostate cancer diagnosis. Therefore, this study aims to further investigate these specific factors to improve follow up care in patients with prostate cancer. This observational study will follow up newly diagnosed prostate cancer patients for a period of 12 months to evaluate these outcomes. Participants will be identified across seven hospitals in London and South England. After being recruited participants will be invited to undergo repeated online or postal questionnaires at baseline, 3, 6, 9 and 12 months. These will assess depressive and anxiety symptom load, body image issues, fear of recurrence, masculinity perception and functional symptoms (including urinary, bowel and sexual symptoms) load. Analysis of these findings will allow for identification of 1) Which subgroups of patients appear to have worse mental wellbeing and quality of life outcomes, and 2) How mental health issues impact functional outcomes. This will provide important information for guiding future research within the subject area and further inform clinicians about these issues.
NCT01411332
1. Delivery of directed hypofractionated targeted (HT) radiotherapy (RT) tumor boost to the dominant tumor lesion in the prostate as identified by multiparametric MRI will increase tumor eradication from the prostate. 2. Biomarker expression levels differ in the multiparametric MRI defined regions at high risk of harboring tumors that determine outcome. 3. 10-15% of men undergoing RT have Circulating DNA or tumor cells (CTC) that are related to an adverse treatment outcome. 4. Quality of life will not differ significantly between the treatment arms. 5. Prostate cancer-related anxiety will be reduced in the HTIMRT arm, because the patients will be aware that the dominant tumor will be targeted with higher radiation dose.
NCT00583752
The purpose of this study is to determine whether vaccination with the Ad/PSA vaccine will induce an anti-PSA immunity that will result in the destruction of the remaining prostate cancer cells.
NCT05378854
The aim of this study is to facilitate collection of real-world data to test and train the analytics engine for each prototype algorithm. Preliminary datasets will be generated to enable a dry run of the prototype algorithms to check their predictive functionality as part of simulated 'experimental' scenarios at each LifeChamps partner site. This preparatory work will be critical to the development of the LifeChamps platform, prior to progressing to a larger scale feasibility trial.
NCT05140512
This is a randomized, open-label and parallel phase I study to compare pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD) and safety of goserelin acetate sustained-release microspheres for injection (LY01005) and ZOLADEX® following multiple administration in patients with prostate cancer.
NCT05854940
At present, the most commonly used clinical screening tool is based on prostate-specific antigen (PSA) examination. Because PSA is a tissue-specific rather than a tumor-specific marker, it has low specificity and sensitivity for prostate cancer. Although these PSA-related diagnostic models (PHI, 4Kscore) have been proved to improve the sensitivity and specificity of the early diagnosis of prostate cancer, they still do not meet the requirements of accurate diagnosis. Therefore, it is extremely important to develop a diagnosis tool with higher specificity, sensitivity and accuracy in the current prostate tumor screening strategy. Raman spectroscopy (Raman Spectrum, RS) as a non-invasive and high specificity of material molecular detection technology, can be obtained in the molecular level, thus sensitive to detect biological samples tumor metabolism related proteins, nucleic acids, lipids and sugar composition of bio-molecules changes. As scientists pointed out in a literature in "chemical society reviews"in 2020, although SERS technology has shown good diagnostic efficacy in lots of preclinical studies in multiple tumors, it is limited to a generally small sample size and lacks external validation. There for, a clinical study of Raman spectra for tumor diagnosis is needed, which meets the following requirements: 1.An objective, fast and practical application of Raman spectral data processing is needed and deep learning method may be the best classification method; 2. It requires multicenter and large clinical samples to train deep learning diagnostic model, and verify its true efficacy through external data of prospective study. In our preliminary study,we have collected Raman spectra data from a large cohort of 2899 patients and constructed Raman intelligent diagnostic system based on CNN model. The intelligent diagnostic system achieved accuracy of 83%. In order to obtain the highest level of clinical evidence and truly realize clinical transformation, this prospective, multi-center clinical study is designed to verify the intelligent diagnostic system for early diagnosis of prostate cancer.
NCT02968784
This study is intended to show that ExAblate™ MRgFUS is a safe procedure that can significantly postpone or eliminate the need of patients with organ confined intermediate risk prostate cancer to undergo a definitive treatment (i.e., Radical Prostatectomy or Radiation therapy) for their disease.
NCT01278914
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: Determination of safety and toxicity of vaccination with mRNA transfected DC (based on blood samples, and adverse events). SECONDARY OBJECTIVES: Determine immunological response to the vaccine (induction of specific T-cell response) and assessment of tumour response.
NCT03406858
This phase II trial studies how well pembrolizumab and HER2Bi-armed activated T cells work in treating patients with castration resistant prostate cancer that has spread to other places in the body. Monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. HER2Bi-armed activated T cells are made using T cells and may target and kill cancer cells. Giving pembrolizumab and HER2Bi-armed activated T cells may work better in treating patients with castration resistant prostate cancer.
NCT04321187
Previous studies have reported that cancer survivors develop age-related chronic conditions like frailty, sarcopenia, cardiac dysfunction, and cognitive impairment earlier and/or at a greater burden than similarly aged individuals never diagnosed with cancer or exposed to cancer therapies. However, the knowledge about aging-associated consequences of cancer treatment and the processes that underlie differential responses to therapy is very limited. In 2018, a think tank established by the National Cancer Institute has defined various research needs to expand the evidence base for aging-related consequences of cancer treatment, such as studies to examine aging-related processes that include regularly performed assessments capturing factors associated with physical function or studies to elucidate pathways that lead to the emergence of aging phenotypes and to understand the relationships between biomarkers of aging and functional outcomes in cancer survivors. In addition, study inclusion of older adults with comorbidities and higher levels of frailty has been proposed to achieve an improved understanding of functional outcomes at any age. Hypotheses / objectives We hypothesize that prostate cancer radiotherapy accelerates aging-related processes, furthermore, aging-related biomarkers may predict functional outcomes and represent early indicators of aging phenotypes. Primary objectives of the proposed study are the determination of the aging-related consequences of radiotherapy in prostate cancer patients and the evaluation of the relationship between biomarkers of aging and age-related clinical conditions.
NCT05823402
The SPECTacular study will enroll patients who are already undergoing a FDA approved PSMA-targeted Radioligand treatment cycle. During each treatment cycle, patients will receive 5 additional SPECT/CT scans to investigate the limits of agreement between dosimetry (absorbed radiation dose) approximation methods and dosimetry using the triexponential fitting method.
NCT04880681
Patient-blinded randomized controlled trial evaluating length and quality of prostate biopsies taken by a novel biopsy needle.
NCT05818631
The goal of this prospective observational study is to evaluate the diagnostic precision of the Biparametric Magnetic Resonance Imaging (bpMRI) in the detection of clinically significant prostate cancer (PCa) in patients with biochemical suspicion of prostate cancer with PSA (Prostate Specific Antigen) \> 4 ng/mL and a normal digital rectal examination and without a biopsy previous to the MRI. Secondary aims are: * Determine the validity as a diagnostic test of the first directed transrectal prostatic biopsy (cognitive fusion) versus systematic biopsy of 12 cylinders in patients with suspicious lesions in the bpMRI. * Develop a predictive nomogram that permits the reduction of the number of prostatic biopsies performed to patients with a low suspicion of prostate cancer in the bpMRI.
NCT05820724
