Filter by:This is a prospective, open-label Phase 3 study to evaluate copper Cu 64 PSMA I&T injection for PET/CT imaging in patients with newly diagnosed unfavorable intermediate high-risk, high-risk or very high-risk prostate cancer.
This is a prospective, open-label Phase 3 study to evaluate copper Cu 64 PSMA I&T injection for PET/CT imaging in patients with recurrent prostate cancer after radical prostatectomy or radiation therapy.
This purpose of this study is to examine the placement of proton spots during pencil beam scanning proton therapy for low and intermediate risk prostate cancer. The researchers will test a unique technique called "Spot Delete" to control the placement of spots during treatment planning. They will also use a special computer model to study how the energy of the proton beam (linear energy transfer) is related to rectal and bladder side effects. The study involves creating a treatment plan based on a CT scan, which helps guide the proton beam in the body. The clinical team uses this CT scan to find the best placement for the protons. The "Spot Delete" method prevents protons from stopping in the rectum, sigmoid, and small bowel, which is thought to be related to acute or late toxicities, such as tenesmus, diarrhea, fecal incontinence, proctitis, and rectal hemorrhage.
To determine the possible reduction in prostate size following the administration of Leuprelin prior to the application of radiotherapy.
This study will follow men with metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer throughout their standard of care treatment for their disease to determine if the presence of different genes or proteins can predict which patients respond to the cancer treatment they receive. As tumors grow and begin to spread, they may release cells into patients' bloodstream. These cells are called "circulating tumor cells", or CTCs. CTCs can be used to look for differences in "biomarkers" (genes or proteins that may change based on how a person is or is not responding to treatment). The purpose of this research study is to learn whether scientists can use biomarkers from CTCs to predict which tumors will respond to certain hormonal therapies. Participants will have blood collected and provide an archival sample from a previous tumor biopsy. The researchers will compare biomarkers from participants who responded well to treatment to those who responded poorly in order to answer the research question.
This phase I trial tests the safety, side effects and best dose of radioligand therapy (lutetium Lu 177 PSMA-10.1 [177Lu-rhPSMA-10.1]) after prostate specific membrane antigen (PSMA) positron emission tomography (PET)-guided external beam radiotherapy in treating post-prostatectomy patients with prostate cancer that has come back after a period of improvement (recurrent). In this study, radioligand therapy is a radioactive drug called 177Lu-rhPSMA-10.1. It works by binding to PSMA-expressing prostate tumor cells and delivering the radioactive portion of the drug directly to the tumor cells while not harming normal cells. Radiation therapy such as external beam radiotherapy uses high energy x-rays to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. Giving radioligand therapy with PSMA PET-guided external beam radiotherapy may kill more tumor cells in post-prostatectomy patients with biochemically recurrent prostate cancer.
This phase II trial evaluates apalutamide in combination with image-guided stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) for the treatment of patients with prostate cancer. Prostate cancer usually needs the hormone testosterone to grow. Apalutamide is a hormone therapy that blocks the effect of testosterone on prostate tumor cells. This may help stop the growth of tumor cells that need testosterone to grow. Image-guided SBRT is a standard treatment for some types of prostate cancer. This treatment combines imaging of cancer within the body, with the delivery of therapeutic radiation doses produced on a linear accelerator machine. SBRT uses special equipment to position a patient and deliver radiation to tumors with high precision. This method may kill tumor cells with fewer doses over a shorter period and cause less damage to normal tissue. Combining apalutamide with image-guided SBRT may increase a prostate cancer patient's chances of achieving an extremely low prostate specific antigen response, which is an early predictor of disease cure.
Sequential cohort evaluation of ideal timing of imaging and treatment spacing to discern maximal PSMA (Prostate specific membrane antigen) PET (Positron Emission Tomography) response (PSMA-11 68Ga, Illucix) for adaptation of dominant intra-prostatic lesion tumor boost dose
Recent guidelines now recommend multi parametric magnetic resonance imaging prior to biopsy for all men as an integral part of improved diagnosis of clinical significant prostate cancer. However, magnetic resonance imaging targeted biopsy is a strategy that focuses on maximizing detection of clinical significant prostate cancer, but this procedure has the disadvantage of leading to higher detection of clinically insignificant prostate cancers. One of the risk-stratifications developed to minimize the existing disadvantages and avoid unnecessary biopsy procedures is a strategy in which multi parametric magnetic resonance imaging and prostate-specific antigen density are used in combination. This is especially important in all patients with PI-RADS (Prostate Imaging Reporting and Data System) 3 lesions which are also interpreted as indeterminate mpMRI findings. Current guidelines suggest that biopsy may be omitted in some patient groups with PI-RADS 3 lesions in the risk-adapted strategy involving prostate-specific antigen density. The aim of this study was to evaluate the role of risk-adapted strategies involving prostate-specific antigen density in biopsy decision to avoid unnecessary biopsy vs the risk of missing clinical significant prostate cancer diagnosis in patients with PI-RADS 3 lesions.
This phase II randomized control trial assesses the effect of Urolithin A (Uro-A) supplementation compared to placebo in men with biopsy-confirmed prostate cancer undergoing radical prostatectomy (RP) progressive disease. A total of 90 men will be accrued and randomized 1:1 to receive a 1000 mg daily dose of Uro-A in two 250 mg capsules PO BID or two placebo capsules BID daily for 3 to 6 weeks prior to RP. The primary endpoint is to determine the effect of Uro-A on decreasing prostate tumor tissue oxidative stress (measured by 8-OHdG) compared to placebo.
