Filter by:1. To assess the safety of using the CONTINUUM™ device by monitoring the side effects and complications associated with the Device following a radical prostatectomy. 2. To verify CONTINUUM™ device performance using updated CONTINUUM™ device design modifications, physician procedure guide and training methodology.
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the prediction of late toxicity by the radiation induced CD8 T-lymphocyte apoptosis
RATIONALE: The use of diindolylmethane, a substance found in cruciferous vegetables, may slow the growth of tumor cells. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well diindolylmethane works in treating patients with stage I or stage II prostate cancer undergoing radical prostatectomy.
This research is being done to test an investigational drug, called itraconazole, in the treatment of prostate cancer. Itraconazole is approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of various fungal infections such as fingernail/toenail infections and other more serious fungal infections. The word "investigational" means that itraconazole is not approved for use in people with cancer. However, the FDA is allowing the use of itraconazole in this research study. Itraconazole has been shown to have activity against cancer (including prostate cancer) in the laboratory, but has not been tested against cancer in humans. The purpose of this study is to find out: - If itraconazole is safe when given at two different doses - How itraconazole affects prostate specific antigen (PSA): a blood test that measures substances released by prostate cancer - Whether itraconazole can delay further prostate cancer growth and spread - How itraconazole affects other markers of prostate cancer
This is a phase 3 study to compare the clinical benefit of abiraterone acetate plus prednisone with placebo plus prednisone in asymptomatic or mildly symptomatic patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC).
This was a Phase 3b clinical study in prostate cancer patients which aimed to compare the current standard therapy of a gonadotrophin releasing hormone (GnRH) agonist, goserelin (3.6 mg; plus anti-androgen flare protection, bicalutamide), to a novel GnRH antagonist, degarelix (240 mg starting dose/80 mg maintenance dose) with respect to mean percentage reduction in prostate volume. The hypothesis was that degarelix could decrease prostate size at least as effectively as the combination of a GnRH agonist with an anti-androgen for flare protection.
The primary purpose of this study is to determine if cross-linked hyaluronan gel reduces the dose of radiation delivered to the rectum and the rectal toxicity of radiotherapy for localized prostate cancer.
This trial is designed to investigate the safety, dosing schedule, and efficacy of the combination treatment of Panobinostat (a histone deacetylase inhibitor) and hormone therapy for recurrent prostate cancer. This trial is at its Phase II stage. As of July 23, 2013 Arm B was closed to accrual, all the remaining slots in accrual will be allocated to Arm A.
The goal of this clinical research study is to learn if using cryotherapy to treat only the part of the prostate that contains cancer is an effective treatment for prostate cancer. The safety of this treatment will also be studied. Researchers also want to learn if treating only the part of the prostate with cancer causes less impact on your quality of life than other types of therapies.
RATIONALE: Gathering information about how often osteonecrosis of the jaw occurs in patients receiving zoledronic acid for bone metastases may help doctors learn more about the disease and provide the best follow-up care. PURPOSE: This clinical trial is studying osteonecrosis of the jaw in patients with cancer who are receiving zoledronic acid for bone metastases.
