Filter by:The purpose of this study is to determine the effectiveness of darolutamide as part of adjuvant androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) with a luteinising hormone releasing hormone analogue (LHRHA) in men having radiation therapy for localised prostate cancer at very high risk of recurrence.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate whether storage of serum uncentrifuged is an allowable preanalytical procedure
This research project results from the interest in continuing the collaboration with the previous LL-HURS-ONC001 clinical validation study, which gives cause to the present study. LL-HURS-ONC001 was carried out with the participation of HURS' Principal Investigator and the team of experts in prostate cancer, as well as with the participation of the Sponsor's scientific and development team, Life Length SL, led by Dr. Najarro. The main objective of this study is to demonstrate the efficacy of the PROSTAV test in cutting down on unnecessary biopsies in prostate cancer screening/early diagnosis. PROSTAV is a minimally invasive test, easy to implement as biomarker for prostate cancer diagnosis. The efficacy of the PROSTAV test is clinically validated by the results obtained in a previous study, LL-HURS-ONC001. The purpose of this study is to advance in the development of new biomarkers in areas where there is a clinical need and where the telomeric profile influences medical decisions within the patient's clinical context. The association level between each individual's telomere biology and the results of the prostate biopsy will be confirmed. Data will be collected to subsequently delve deeper into and accurately establish the effect of this measure in prostate cancer patient management to substantiate its implementation in standard care.
The purpose of this study is to find out in the real-world setting, if darolutamide is safe and effective for patients diagnosed with prostate cancer that has not spread to other parts of the body. When a patient is enrolled to the study, his/her physician would have already made the decision to treat patient with darolutamide per local standard practice.
All patients will be required to have a biopsy of a metastatic tumor deposit at study entry. Pembrolizumab will be administered at a dose of 200 mg as a 30 minute IV infusion every 3 weeks. Enzalutamide will be continued at dose of 160 mg orally every day. Patients who have neither rapid disease progression or disease response will undergo a fecal microbiota transplant, have a second biopsy (if medically feasible), and be re-treated with pembrolizumab.
The aim of the study is the evaluation of the possible role of PSMA PET-CT in early detection of prostate cancer, reducing rate of unnecessary prostate biopsies, and in cases of prostate cancer, correct staging of the disease and corresponding management.
This is a master prospective Phase I-II trial evaluating feasibility and efficacy of stereotactic magnetic resonance (MR) guided adaptive radiation therapy (SMART) in patients with cancer. - The phase 1 study will evaluate the feasibility and safety of delivering SMART in patients with cancer. - Phase 2 will evaluate efficacy of SMART with specific reference to tumor control and improvement in patient reported outcome measures
Conventional treatment options for localized prostate cancer include prostatectomy, radiotherapy and active surveillance. However, prostatectomy and radiotherapy carry certain degree of morbidity, including the risks of urinary incontinence, erectile dysfunction and injury to the surrounding organs like rectum and bladder. Active surveillance carries the risk of disease progression and psychological distress to the patients. Focal therapy employs the concept of only destroying the target lesion without treating other benign areas, resulting in disease cure in majority of cases with less treatment morbidity. Microwave treatment to the prostate has been performed since more than 20 years ago for benign prostatic hyperplasia and is approved by FDA in United States. It exerts its effect through thermal destruction of prostate tissue. Targeted treatment of localized prostate cancer using microwave needle ablation guided by MRI and Ultrasound imaging has been performed recently and was shown to be safe and effective. Our study aims to assess the effectiveness of this focal therapy in treating localized prostate cancer.
The investigators provided a multicenter analysis aiming to investigate, in a clinical practice setting, the prognostic relevance of previous primary radical prostatectomy (RP) or external beam radiotherapy (RT) in terms of Overall Survival as opposed to patients with no primary treatment performed, in a cohort of patients enrolled in 223-Ra treatment for mCRPC. 223-Ra has been administered from investigators according to the current label authorization and all patients underwent 223-Ra treatment, until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
Tranperineal prostate biopsy(TPB) and Transrectal prostate biopsy(TRUSB) are now both routine diagnosis methods of prostate cancer in Queen Mary Hospital. The TRUSB has been the most common way to sample prostate tissue for decades. The TPB has been employed as one of our routine diagnosis methods in early 2018. The aim of this study is to evaluate whether Tranperineal prostate biopsy using a noval transperineal access system under local anaesthesia is non-inferior to standard 12-cores Transrectal prostate biopsy in detecting prostate cancer (PCa), in patients with clinical suspicion of PCa with no prior prostate biopsy.
