Filter by:The purpose is to assess and describe the oncological and functional outcomes following the introduction of curative targeted focal brachytherapy of prostate cancer in Denmark. Men with a single MRI-identifiable prostate cancer index-tumour who fulfil inclusion criteria and are candidates for curative treatment. Eligible men will undergo curative intended targeted focal brachytherapy for treatment of histologically confirmed prostate cancer. The intervention will include Low- (LDR) or High (HDR) dose rate targeted focal brachytherapy of prostate cancer. Collection of data on safety, morbidity, side effects and quality of life. Collection of clinical data on treatment efficacy, progression, and mortality. All patients will have a follow up of 10-years for oncological outcome, 5-years for acute- and late toxicity-, and 2-years for functional outcomes, respectively. The follow up will include clinical data, MRI, confirmatory biopsies, and questionnaires at specific fixed time points pre-and post-operatively after 1-3 days, 4-weeks, 3-, 6--, 9-, 12-, 18-, and 24-months followed by every 6 months up to 5-yr and then every year up to 10-yr follow-up. Anticipated number of patients is 50 and regular analysis and reporting will be performed continuously. The first short-term analysis will be after 18-months of follow-up after confirmatory MRI and biopsies, and the final reporting will be after 10-years follow-up in 2035.
Prostate cancer is the second most common cancer and the fifth in cancer-related deaths. Open radical retropubic prostatectomy is the most common surgical treatment for localized prostate cancer. Open radical retropubic prostatectomy is associated with moderate pain. Severe pain in the postoperative period affects the length of hospital stay and morbidity. Multimodal analgesia applications for the management of postoperative pain are the main component of post-surgical recovery. Different analgesia modalities, including systemic opioid use and neuraxial analgesia, have been used for pain control after retropubic radical prostatectomy. Side effects of systemic and intrathecal opioids limit the potential benefits of these agents. Transversus abdominis plane block and quadratus lumborum block are blocks that can be used for postoperative analgesia in the abdominal and pelvic regions. There is no study in the literature comparing the efficacy of these two blocks for postoperative analgesia in open radical retropubic prostatectomy and their effects on narcotic consumption.
The purpose of this study is to learn whether PYLARIFY PET imaging (study scan) can safely and accurately detect the presence or absence of prostate cancer growing beyond the prostate gland in men with favorable intermediate risk prostate cancer. Participants will receive a single dose of PYLARIFY injection followed by a single whole-body PET/CT or PET/MRI scan acquired at 1 to 2 hours after PYLARIFY injection. Participants with positive study scan results that are suspicious for prostate cancer outside of the prostate gland may be asked to undergo additional diagnostic test(s) and/or recommend certain treatment(s) for prostate cancer within 2 to 90 days after the study scan. Participants will be monitored for up to 12 months to collecting information about treatment they receive for prostate cancer and results of regular PSA blood draws if ordered by doctors for up to 12 months after the study scan.
The Continence, Sexual and Metabolic Health (CONTROL 4 LIFE) study will evaluate the recovery of continence, sexual function, and health outcomes in individuals who have undergone surgery for prostate cancer. The purpose of this study is to better understand the timelines of recovery for these outcomes after surgery for prostate cancer. As part of this study, all participants will receive resources offered by Alberta Health Services regarding pre- and post-prostatectomy care, including information on pelvic floor exercises. Through the CONTROL 4 LIFE study, the investigators will also be evaluating outcomes related to physical activity, fitness and quality of life. These assessments will enable the investigators to better understand how well and how long it takes for individuals to recover after surgery for prostate cancer.
Prior to treatment, it is essential to assess not only the extent of prostate cancer within the prostate, but also to determine whether the disease has initiated metastatic spread. Whole-body MRI has become a viable option for the detection of metastatic disease derived from a number of cancers, but is typically performed in a separate scanning session to an initial dedicated prostate MRI in which the local disease is assessed. In patients known to be at high risk for significant prostate cancer prior to this initial MRI, and thus highly likely to proceed to treatment, this delays arriving at a definitive treatment decision. The investigators will evaluate the sensitivity of a protocol that combines bi-parametric prostate MRI, performed according to PI-RADS v2.1 guidelines, with a whole-body MRI based on the METastasis Reporting and Data System for Prostate Cancer (MET-RADS-P) guidelines, for an All-in-One, local and systemic staging of intermediate-favorable or high risk prostate cancer patients. The resulting staging decisions will be compared to the results of systemic staging with those obtained by computed tomography and bone scintigraphy in the standard staging pathway.
To learn if the proposed dose of 177Lu rhPSMA-10.1 is safe. Phase 2 will open if the Phase 1 dose is found to be safe. To learn about the safety and effects of 177Lu rhPSMA-10.1 alone and with androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) on patients with high-risk, localized prostate cancer before they have surgery to remove the disease.
This study aims to assess biomarkers and their related polymorphisms in the context of cancer-associated thromboembolism, with a particular focus on their interaction with the immune system. The roles of immune checkpoints, inflammatory and angiogenesis factors, as well as circulating immune cells will be elucidated. Additionally, our investigation extends to the exploration of long non-coding RNAs (LncRNAs) and genes associated with the coagulation vascular system. Initially, these aspects will be evaluated in the context of colorectal cancer, with the intention to expand our research to other solid tumors. The identification of these biomarkers and genetic factors holds the potential to revolutionize therapeutic approaches for patients with cancer-associated thromboembolism, shedding light on their chemotherapy resistance. The effectiveness of combining immunotherapy with targeted inhibitors like Palbociclib and anticoagulants such as Rivaroxaban, among other potential interventions, will be assessed. This study aims to make significant contributions to the understanding of these critical aspects, ultimately leading to the development of more effective treatment strategies for cancer patients.
The goal of this interventional clinical trial is to learn about TNG348, a ubiquitin specific peptidase 1 (USP1) inhibitor, alone and in combination with olaparib in patients with BRCA 1/2 mutant or HRD+ solid tumors. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: - to evaluate the safety and tolerability of single agent and combination therapy - to determine the recommended dose for Phase 2 of single agent and combination therapy - to determine the pharmacokinetics of TNG348 as a single agent and in combination therapy - to evaluate the initial antineoplastic activity as a single agent and in combination therapy Participants will receive study treatment until they experience an undesirable side effect, their disease progresses or until they withdraw consent.
The overarching goal of this trial is to develop mechanisms to improve cardiovascular care among such prostate cancer patients receiving ADT by increasing patient awareness of individualized cardiovascular risk estimates and mitigation opportunities. Patients will be given access to a web-based quality improvement tool to educate patients of cardiovascular risks in prostate cancer and to inform them of their individualized, estimated cardiovascular risk and guideline-based risk mitigation recommendations. The study will assess the feasibility of this web-based application as a cardiovascular education tool for patients with prostate cancer. The study will also evaluate if completion of the web-based tool improves cardiovascular care access and risk mitigation for patients with prostate cancer.
The study is being conducted to evaluate the the safety, pharmacokinetics, radiation dosimetry of HRS-9815 for PET/CT imaging in adult patients with prostate cancer.
