Filter by:We aim to employ targeted DNA NGS to evaluate the prevalence of germline and somatic mutations in cancer predisposing genes, such as BRCA1 and BRCA2, and other HR and DDR genes, including also a few additional clinically relevant genes, in patients with metastatic, locally advanced or high-grade prostate cancer. In addition, we will investigate the prognostic role of these mutations as well as their association with various clinicopathological parameters. This will be the first study investigating the prevalence of germline and somatic pathogenic mutations in Greek patients with prostate cancer.
This study evaluates the diagnostic performance and safety of [18F]PSMA-1007 PET/CT imaging in patients with suspected recurrence of prostate cancer after previous definitive treatment.
PYTHON is designed to establish the efficacy and safety of 18F-DCFPyL in comparison with that of 18F-fluorocholine, in patients with first biochemical recurrence (BCR) after initial definitive therapy (prostatectomy, external beam radiotherapy or brachytherapy) for histopathologically confirmed prostate adenocarcinoma per original diagnosis. PET/CT scans will be each interpreted by three independent masked experts who are not otherwise involved in the trial.
This Phase II trial will enroll approximately 180 adult male patients with an earlier histologic diagnosis of prostatic adenocarcinoma and a biochemical recurrence (BCR) within 3 years of radical prostatectomy (RP) or definitive RT and no distant metastasis or locoregional recurrence. The trial is a randomized placebo-controlled double-blind study of a peptide cancer vaccine (RV001V).
Treatment of recurrent oligometastatic prostate cancer may be enhanced by the addition of Hydroxychloroquine to the current treatment regimens. Potential benefits of Hydroxychloroquine include delayed disease progression and delayed initiation of androgen deprivation therapy (ADT), thus lessening morbidity, distressing side effects, and improving functioning and quality of life in men with recurrent prostate cancer. Building on prior research at Markey, patients recently diagnosed with recurrent oligometastatic prostate cancer will be approached about participating in this study. Per standard of care, these patients undergo either surgery or radiation, in addition participants of this clinical trial will also receive Hydroxychloroquine (400 mg per day, oral medication) for 3 months. It is expected that a participant will exhibit a 50% increase of tumor suppressor PAR-4, as well as few, if any, negative side effects from Hydroxychloroquine.
Initial performance of Ga-68-P16-093 in prostate cancer patients including dosimetry and preliminary efficacy evaluation in BCR patients, and correlation of Ga-68-P16-093 uptake with tissue histopathology in intermediate to high risk primary prostate cancer patients.
Despite continuous technical improvements in urologic surgery, up to 40% of prostate cancer patients will develop biochemical recurrence after radical prostatectomy (RP), potentially because of micro metastasis at the time of the primary surgery. With improved radiological modalities and nuclear medicine tracers like 68Ga-PSMA PET/CT, which allow the localization of the site of recurrence, there is increasing interest in metastasis directed therapies, such as salvage lymph node dissection. The pelvic extended salvage lymph node dissection (sLND) is a promising option for treating prostate cancer patients with local recurrence after radical prostatectomy with curative intent. Several retrospective series has been published to determine the local value of sLND. Despite the first data seem to be feasible and promising, to date no prospective evaluation has been made. Thus sLND is still experimental according to the guidelines and is considered as an off label therapy. This prospective single center phase I/II study was conducted to investigate the safety and early efficacy of salvage lymph node dissection in prostate cancer patients with local pelvic recurrence after radical prostatectomy (RP) with curative intention.
Simultaneous PET/MRI has the potential to improve the detection accuracy in recurrent prostate cancer, since it combines the excellent soft-tissue contrast of MRI with the high molecular sensitivity of PET in a single imaging session. The aim of this study is to evaluate the sensitivity and specificity of simultaneous 18F-Fluciclovine PET/MRI for detection of recurrent prostate cancer.
Radiation therapy is considered a standard treatment option for the management of localized prostate cancer. Among the 20-30% of patients who recur, there is no consensus on the optimal salvage therapy. Salvage options available for isolated local recurrence include; temporary or permanent implantation of radioactive seeds into the prostate, complete removal of the prostate gland, use of low temperatures to treat the disease (cryotherapy), and high frequency ultrasound to treat the disease. There are risks of complications associated with all these treatments, and there is presently no consensus as to which treatment is the best. The aim of this pilot study is to look at the feasibility and toxicities of whole gland salvage treatment of the prostate using temporary implantation of radioactive seeds into the prostate.
