Filter by:Stereotaxic prostatic radiotherapy on Linac MRI, with monitoring of movements of the pelvic organs per fraction on the prostate in real time, in 4 sessions, with integrated boost on the index tumor (if it is visible on the diagnostic MRI), could reduce the digestive, urinary and sexual toxicities accumulated at 5 years and guarantee excellent local tumor control, for patients with localized prostate cancer, with a favorable prognosis, intermediate or very local high risk, according to the D'Amico classification. The benefits that patients participating in this research could obtain are: - Better disease control efficiency - A reduction in the duration of treatment to 4 radiotherapy sessions (2 weeks maximum) instead of 40 sessions (8 weeks) for usual treatment. - Avoid the risks associated with the implantation of prostate markers necessary for stereotaxic radiotherapy on a standard accelerator (anesthetic risks, infectious risks, hemorrhagic risks, pain risks) - Better quality of life
This open label, dose escalating study is a phase I/IIa first in man study designed to evaluate the safety and tolerability of intratumoral administration of a novel oncolytic adenovirus (ORCA-010) in treating diagnosed treatment naïve Patients with localized prostate cancer.
MAGIC-8 is a two-arm, multicenter, phase 1b/2 study to assess the efficacy of immunotherapy with either Nivolumab (anti-PD-1) or Nivolumab plus BMS-986253 combined with ADT using Degarelix (LHRH antagonist) for men with hormone-sensitive prostate cancer and a rising prostate-specific antigen (PSA). The purpose of this study is to see whether immunotherapy with either Nivolumab alone or Nivolumab plus BMS-986253 combined with Degarelix, which suppresses testosterone, is safe and can decrease the chance that the cancer will come back. The primary objectives are to 1) determine the rate of PSA recurrence defined as a PSA >0.2ng/ml for radical prostatectomy patients or PSA >2.0ng/ml for patients who received primary radiation therapy at a time point of 10 months after start of therapy; and 2) determine the safety and tolerability of either nivolumab or nivolumab plus BMS-986253 in combination with degarelix in men with hormone-sensitive prostate cancer. The secondary objectives include determining relapse-free survival (RFS) and % change in PSA to immunotherapy alone.
The ProVent study is a randomized, open-label study designed to assess the efficacy of sipuleucel-T in reducing the progression of lower risk non-metastatic prostate cancer compared to subjects followed on active surveillance as standard of care.
There are two separate phases of this study. The purpose of the phase-I is to initially find a potent but reasonably safe dose of a stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) for treating prostate cancer. Once this potent but reasonably safe dose is found, the phase-II will treat additional patients with SBRT to see what effects (good and bad) it has on prostate cancer. Phase-I - Primary objective: To escalate the dose of stereotactic radiotherapy to a tumorcidal dose without exceeding the maximum tolerated dose in patients with organ confined prostate cancer. - Secondary objective: To determine the dose limiting toxicity (DLT) (if the maximum tolerated dose is reached) Phase-II - Primary objective: To determine the late severe grade 3-5 Gu and Gi toxicity at nine months from the start of the protocol treatment (graded base on the CTCae v3.0) - Secondary objective: To determine the 2 year biochemical Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) control (freedom from PSA failure), disease free and overall survival, local control, freedom from distant metastases, and the incidence of high grade adverse events of any type from the therapy in the treated patients in order to determine if the therapy is promising enough for further clinical investigation.
Adaptive Androgen Deprivation Therapy (ADT) plus Standard of Care. The purpose of this study is to develop adaptive therapy for high risk metastatic castration sensitive prostate cancer (mCSPC).
The present study evaluates the clinical outcomes following definitive ultra-high dose per fraction external beam radiation therapy delivered in patients with organ-confined adenocarcinoma of the prostate. Patients enrolled in the study will undergo image-guided, volumetric intensity-modulated arc radiotherapy (IGRT-VMAT) with state-of-the-art treatment-planning and quality assurance procedures with emphasis on normal tissue sparing and delivery accuracy via the use of devices that ensure stability and beam location reproducibility. A rectal balloon with air filling will be used for prostate target immobilization and anatomical reproducibility, while a urethral catheter loaded with beacon transponders will be used to ensure set-up reproducibility and online target tracking. Previously untreated patients with prostate cancer will be treated with 45 Gy in five fractions of 9 Gy over 5 consecutive days. Patients will be followed at one month post-treatment and every 3 months for up to 12 months (+/- 4 weeks) and every 6 months (+/- 6 weeks) thereafter. Acute and late toxicity evaluations will focus, though not exclusively, on urinary, rectal and sexual functions and will be assessed through validated Expanded Prostate Cancer Index Composite (EPIC), International prostate symptom score (IPSS) and International index of erectile function (IIEF) questionnaires. Serum Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) values will be drawn on the same schedule as clinical follow-up. Patients will be continuously monitored for a minimum of 5 years.
This clinical trial studies stereotactic body radiation therapy in treating patients with high-risk prostate cancer that has not spread to nearby lymph nodes or to other parts of the body. Stereotactic body radiation therapy is a specialized radiation therapy that delivers a single, high dose of radiation directly to the tumor and may kill more tumor cells and cause less damage to normal tissue. Studying quality of life in patients undergoing stereotactic body radiation therapy may help identify the long-term effects of treatment on patients with prostate cancer.
This randomized phase II trial compares enzalutamide with standard androgen deprivation therapy in reducing incidence of metabolic syndrome in patients with prostate cancer that has spread to other places in the body. Metabolic syndrome is defined as changes in cholesterol, blood pressure, circulating sugar levels, and body weight. Previous studies have shown that patients with prostate cancer, who have been treated with standard medical therapy that lowers testosterone levels, have an increased risk of these changes. Hormone therapy using enzalutamide may fight prostate cancer by blocking the use of testosterone by the tumor cells instead of lowering testosterone levels. It is not yet known whether prostate cancer patients who receive enzalutamide will have reduced incidence of metabolic syndrome than patients who receive standard androgen deprivation therapy.
The primary hypothesis of this study is that outcomes for patients with biochemically recurrent prostate cancer following radical prostatectomy will be improved by the addition of enzalutamide for 6-months compared to standard-of-care salvage radiation therapy to allow for further study in the definitive phase III setting. This study builds on the prior success of high-dose bicalutamide (for 24 months) when combined with salvage external radiation therapy (XRT), while using a newer more potent anti-androgen for a shorter duration of time (6 months) in an effort to minimize adverse effects.
