Filter by:This is an open-labeled, single-arm, interventional pilot study. It is being done to determine the feasibility of the administration of transdermal testosterone alternating with enzalutamide, as well as the safety and efficacy.
The overall objective of this study is to acquire ultrasound images, spectral data and prostate tissue biopsy cores using the ClariCore System via a transperineal approach.
Current standard prostate biopsy techniques, used to definitively diagnose prostate cancer (PC), utilises an ultrasound guided biopsy approach, that offers unsatisfactory specificity and sensitivity for clinical significant PC. This often leads to harmful unnecessary biopsies. To improve the overall detection of clinical significant PC, multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) has emerged as a new technique that might be useful in selecting the appropriate patient for biopsy. Nevertheless, mpMRI fail to detect cancer in some circumstances and the exact role of mpMRI is undetermined. Currently, the majority of PC is diagnosed either incidentally or by unsystematic screening with prostate specific antigen (PSA). PSA suffers from being an organ specific, but cancer unspecific serum biomarker. PSA testing may neither rule out or confirm the presence of prostate cancer. Newer biomarkers have shown promise in curbing some of this sensitivity and specificity gap, but still needs refinement. In the present study, the investigators will use mpMRI and a new set of urine and plasma biomarkers in combination, prior to performing standard biopsies in order to develop a prediction model for the biopsy outcome. If proven successful the model would offer excellent risk stratification and possibly mitigating the need for biopsies.
Black men are disproportionately affected by prostate cancer, the most common non-cutaneous malignancy among men in the U.S. This randomized trial will evaluate the efficacy of a Community Health Worker-led decision coaching program to facilitate Shared Decision Making (SDM) and Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) screening among Black men with regards to decision quality, the decision making process, patient-provider communication and PSA utilization for Black men in the primary care setting.
This study will investigate the safety and efficacy of Sacituzumab Govitecan in patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer progressing on second generation AR-directed therapy (e.g., enzalutamide, darolutamide, apalutamide and/or abiraterone).
This was a Phase II, multi-center, open label, single dose study in patients with tumor types known to overexpress Gastrin-Releasing Peptide Receptor (GRPR), including breast, prostate, colorectal, Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) and Small-Cell Lung Cancer (SCLC).
The purpose of this phase II trial is to determine the efficacy and safety of testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) in improving the symptoms of androgen deficiency and health-related quality of life in men with prostate cancer who have undergone radical prostatectomy.
This study will examine the utility of chitosan for reduction of blood or tissue levels of AGEs in patients with prostate cancer who are clinically stable on androgen-deprivation therapy.
The research will focus on the possible connection between prostate cancer, and various species of bacteria in the large intestine. In consecutive patients, referred to prostate biopsies, rectal swabs will be taken before the biopsies and before antibiotic treatment. The gut flora will be examined and characterized by a microbiome analysis tool. Negative patients will serve as internal control. The investigators will look for association between prostate cancer of various grades and the presence of specific enteropathogens in the rectal flora of the participants.
Robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (RALRP) is a surgical technique for the treatment of prostate cancer. The aim of this study was to report our initial experience with RALRP, by applying the concept of pentafecta. Pentafecta consists of the five main outcomes in the postoperative period of RALRP: erectile dysfunction, urinary incontinence, postoperative complications, surgical margins and biochemical failure.
