Filter by:This is a first-in-human, open-label, dose escalation study to evaluate the safety and tolerability of pegilodecakin in participants with advanced solid tumors, dosed daily subcutaneously as a monotherapy or in combination with chemotherapy or immunotherapy.
The goal of this study is to evaluate electrical stimulation of nerves responsible for erectile function after surgery to remove the prostate (prostatectomy). Electrical stimulation of the nerves responsible for erectile function is experimental. The investigators hypothesize that the subjects can tolerate nerve stimulation.
Current standard treatment for prostate cancer involves giving patients approximately 40 doses of radiotherapy, one dose per day over an 8 week period. The purpose of this study is to assess the effects of giving two separate high doses of a special type of precision radiotherapy to the prostate and then 5 weeks (instead of 8 weeks) of standard radiotherapy. Hypothesis: It is safe to give patients an extra two doses of high-precision radiotherapy prior to commencing a shorter period of standard radiotherapy for prostate cancer.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of enzalutamide in patients with non metastatic prostate cancer.
This study will evaluate the proportion of prostate cancer patients receiving external beam radiation therapy (EBRT) and androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) with controlled blood sugars (fasting glucose and hemoglobin A1c), blood pressure, and cholesterol profile (total cholesterol, LDL, HDL, triglycerides) at baseline, 3 months, and 12 months after completing radiation treatment. In addition, receipt of guideline-recommended cardiovascular, primary and preventive care as well as patient-reported quality of life and satisfaction with care among these patients will be evaluated at baseline and 12 months.
Radical prostatectomy, or the surgical extirpation of the prostate, is a standard treatment for prostate cancer. The state of the art radical prostatectomy involves a robotic laparoscopic surgery system (the da Vinci) which provides the surgeon with excellent 3D visualization of the surgical site and improved dexterity over standard laparoscopic instruments. While the long term prognosis of prostate cancer patients who undergo radical prostatectomy has improved significantly over the past two decades, there remain significant rates of disease recurrence and complications. The investigators hypothesis is that advanced trans-rectal ultrasound (TRUS) imaging can be deployed and used easily during surgery, can be registered to the robot coordinate systems with high accuracy, and can be controlled from the surgeon's console, in order to improve the visualization of the prostate and peri-prostatic anatomy, and in order to produce a cancer probability map that can be used to make decisions on surgical margins. The investigators objectives are 1. To demonstrate that TRUS imaging can be integrated with the da Vinci radical prostatectomy 2. To determine the ability of TRUS imaging to intra-operatively visualize the prostate and peri-prostatic tissue from the surgical console This is an observational study; trans-rectal ultrasound will be used to visualize the prostate and periprostatic structures during surgery but the standard of care will not be affected by this ultrasound imaging.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and pharmacokinetics (study of what the body does to a drug) of 1000 mg oral dose of abiraterone acetate and its major metabolite(s) with mild or moderate hepatic impairment and matched control Participants with normal hepatic function.
This is a research study of erectile dysfunction (ED) in men diagnosed with prostate cancer. 144 patients and partners will participate in the study. The purpose of this study is to test a new treatment that combines a cognitive-behavioral intervention with medication and a vacuum constrictive device to treat ED. This new treatment consists of multiple therapeutic elements that enhance compliance with medical treatment and increase sexual activity through enhancement of the sensual pleasure of sex and partner support.
The purpose of this study is to determine if continued treatment with Enzalutamide is effective in patients with metastatic prostate cancer.
This study is designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of combining abiraterone (with prednisone) with cabozantinib in chemotherapy-naïve subjects with bone-metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC).
