Filter by:This study will replicate/validate the risk prediction model developed for the Comparative Effectiveness Analysis of Surgery and Radiation (CEASAR) study in a more diverse patient population to assess generalizability of the model as well as evaluate the relative contribution of the Decipher Prostate Cancer Test and ProstateNext Test from Ambry Genetics, to the risk prediction model for estimating treatment outcomes, and thereby improve personalization of treatment options.
This is a prospective study to determine if the use of curcumin randomized against placebo will reduce cancer progression in patients with prostate cancer undergoing active surveillance.
Imaging and staging of prostate cancer is critical for surgical and treatment planning. In this protocol we will image patients with suspected metastatic prostate cancer using 11C-Choline PET and Gallium-68 labeled HBED-CC PSMA (more commonly called 68Ga-PSMA-11) in order to demonstrate their utility in detecting prostate cancer.
Local cytoreductive treatments for men with newly diagnosed metastatic prostate cancer in addition to standard of care treatment
This study compares micro-ultrasound image targeted prostate biopsy with multi-parametric MRI targeted biopsy in men indicated for prostate biopsy due to suspicion of prostate cancer. Both imaging techniques will be applied to each subject and compared, along with systematic biopsy.
This research study seeks to develop and evaluate a mobile health app which aims to provide patients who are about to initiate androgen deprivation therapy for prostate cancer with an exercise program and better eating habits.
The PAN Cancer Early Detection study is a prospective cross-sectional observational case-control study evaluating whether Breath Biopsy (developed by Owlstone Medical Ltd.Íž the Sponsor of this study) can differentiate between patients with and without different cancer types, by comparing breath biomarkers of patients with gastric, oesophageal, pancreatic, renal, prostate and bladder cancer from matched controls. In total 82 cases (cancer) and 82 matched controls for each tumour type will be recruited at Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, with an additional 164 healthy volunteers. Participants who consented to participation will be asked to provide 1 breath sample, using the ReCIVA breath collector (developed by Owlstone Medical Ltd. and CE-marked). For controls and cases,medical metadata (general medical history) will be collected as well as information on the diagnostic work-up and follow up data (general health data, details on therapy response for patients with confirmed cancer diagnosis, development of a malignancy during follow-up for matched controls) on the basis of the participant's medical charts. Follow-up data will be collected up to 12 months after the breath sample was collected. For healthy volunteers, clinical metadata and a telephone based follow up at 6 and 12 months will be collected. In a small subset of 15% of the participants, up to additional 4 breath samples will be collected to contribute to the development of a validated assay that can then be validated in further studies. The anonymised breath samples will be analysed at the clinical laboratories of Owlstone Medical Ltd. in Cambridge. The study is a collaboration effort between Owlstone Medical Ltd., Cancer Research UK and University Cambridge Hospitals NHS Foundation.
According to the latest data from the China National Cancer Center, prostate cancer has become the most common tumor in the urinary system since 2008. However, conventional imaging techniques including transrectal ultrasound , computed tomography and bone scintigraphy are not sensitive or specific. About 40% of resectable lesions cannot be detected by these techniques. Positron Emission Tomography (PET) provides a valuable tool for the diagnosis and staging of prostate cancer. Recently, prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) as a new novel positron tracer has shown to be effective to detect primary lesions, recurrent and metastatic lesions of prostate cancer. In this prospective study, the investigators will use the most advanced imaging equipments, integrated PET/MR, and PET/CT with prostate cancer-specific imaging agent 68Ga-PSMA and conventional imaging agent [F-18]fluorodeoxyglucose to image patients with or suspected of prostate cancer, the aim is to explore the value of hybrid PET/MR and PET/CT in prostate cancer.
Prostate cancer biochemical recurrence (BCR) occurs in 20-50% of patients following radical prostatectomy or radiotherapy. Due to significant risk of side effects and uncertainty about the benefits, physicians and patients are seeking alternatives to delay androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) for non-metastatic BCR. Long-chain omega-3 fatty acids (LCn3), mainly found in seafood and fatty fish, have beneficial effects against prostate cancer in pre-clinical experimental studies and randomized clinical trials of intermediate prostate cancer outcomes. The current observational evidence also supports testing LCn3 in prostate cancer patients. LCn3 have beneficial effects on inflammation, cardiovascular, psychological, and other outcomes, contrasting sharply with ADT-associated side effects. Investigators propose to conduct a pilot randomized placebo-controlled trial to determine the effects over one year of an innovative LCn3 supplement (5g of omega-3-rich fish oil daily, including 4g of monoglycerides eicosapentaenoic acid (MAG-EPA)) in 30 men experiencing BCR or prostate cancer progression after a curative treatment. This project proposes a simple intervention by dietary supplementation that could eventually help to prevent or delay ADT-related side effects and thus could contribute to diminish the heavy individual and societal burden of prostate cancer. The clinical data generated by this pilot trial will serve as basis for a larger-scale phase II clinical trial.
Pembrolizumab will be administered at a dose of 200 mg will be administered as a 30 minute IV infusion every 3 weeks. Enzalutamide will be administered at dose of 160 mg orally every day. All patients will be required to have at least one high-risk criteria.
