Filter by:The purpose of this study is to evaluate efficacy and safety of ELIGARD 22.5mg in the treatment of subjects with prostate cancer.
Primary Objectives: - To determine the maximum tolerated dose, and dose limiting toxicities of cabazitaxel administered as a 1-hour infusion every 3 weeks in combination with oral daily abiraterone acetate and prednisone in participants with metastatic Castrate-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) - To estimate the anti-tumor activity of cabazitaxel in combination with abiraterone acetate and prednisone in terms of prostate-specific antigen (PSA) response rate. Secondary Objectives: - To characterize the safety profile of the combination - To evaluate the pharmacokinetic profile of cabazitaxel and abiraterone in the proposed combination and dosing schedule - To assess preliminary antitumor activity of the combination in terms of progression-free survival, PSA progression free survival and objective response rate, and overall survival
Ipilimumab, an antibody that blocks cytotoxic T-lymphocyte antigen 4, and GVAX have demonstrated anti-tumor activity in prostate cancer. Pre-clinical studies with this combination have demonstrated potent synergy. The purpose of this study is to investigate, using a phase-I 3+3 dose escalation design followed by an expansion cohort, the safety and efficacy of combined treatment with GVAX and ipilimumab in castration-resistant metastatic prostate cancer (CRPC) patients.
In this study, participants will have standard Androgen Deprivation Therapy and undergo standard external beam radiation therapy to the prostate and at-risk lymph nodes by Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy. The subsequent *boost* radiation therapy to the prostate alone will be given using the CyberKnife, rather than using the standard Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy. This study will also see how CyberKnife affects the quality of the participant's life.
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and efficacy of a short course of radiotherapy (40Gy/5 fractions/29 days) for the treatment of high risk prostate cancer currently being managed with primary androgen deprivation therapy (PADT).
Compare PET/CT and MRI for the early detection of bone metastases of prostate cancer: diagnostic performance and impact on the patient management.Determine the lowest cost strategy according to the precise clinical circumstances.
The objective of this multi-center prospective observational clinical study is to evaluate the clinical performance of the Carisome Prostate assay as an aid in the diagnosis of prostate cancer in men that have been scheduled for a prostate biopsy. Primarily, results of the Carisome Prostate assay will be compared with pathology results of prostate biopsy procedures. Secondarily, the performance of the Carisome Prostate test will be compared to the current standard of care for the detection of prostate cancer.
The main objective of this study is to evaluate the effects of PLX3397 on male subjects with CRPC. Secondary objectives include evaluating the safety and tolerability of PLX3397 and the anti-tumor effects that PLX3397 has on the the subjects.
This Phase I trial combines ADI-PEG 20 with docetaxel in patients with advanced solid tumors with emphasis on castration resistant prostate cancer (CRPC). The investigators hypothesize that the combination will result in greater tumor cytotoxicity with an acceptable toxicity profile (i.e., manageable side effects) in cancer patients due to the unique mechanism of action of ADI-PEG 20. The investigators also hypothesize that the combination of ADI-PEG 20 and docetaxel will result in enhanced tumor cell apoptosis in part due to autophagy and that this will be particularly relevant in CRPC.
The objective of this study is to evaluate a radiolabeled urea-based small molecule inhibitor of prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA), [18F]DCFBC (DCFBC), as a PET imaging biomarker of prostate cancer detection and aggressiveness at initial diagnosis. PSMA is a well characterized histological marker of prostate cancer tumor aggressiveness but a quantitative non-invasive method for PSMA detection and monitoring is not currently available. Development of such an imaging biomarker would be useful to differentiate indolent from aggressive prostate cancer phenotypes and allow for selection of appropriate risk adaptive therapies. The investigators preliminary first-in-human studies demonstrate high specific DCFBC uptake in metastatic prostate cancer and feasibility for prostate cancer imaging. The investigators propose to study patients initially diagnosed with biopsy-positive prostate cancer to determine if DCFBC uptake and location by PET imaging will be positively correlated with prostate cancer by prostatectomy tissue step-section analysis. DCFBC uptake at sites of suspected metastatic disease will be compared to conventional imaging modalities (CT, bone scan) and biopsy results when available. In addition, DCFBC-PET uptake quantification will be compared with expression levels of PSMA and other prostate cancer relevant markers (PSA, Ki-67, TMPRSS2-ERG) by prostate tissue immunohistochemistry analysis and compared with clinical prognostic markers (PSA, Gleason score, clinical stage, Partin tables derived prediction of pathologic stage).
