Filter by:This is a Phase Ib/IIa Study of Cabazitaxel plus Bavituximab in patients with castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC). The current study is designed to determine if the addition of bavituximab to cabazitaxel will improve progression free survival (PFS) or overall survival (OS). In addition, the Lead Researcher is requiring the collection of urine, and blood specimens for future research. This study will enroll patients with CRPC, who have been previously treated with docetaxel or a docetaxel-containing regimen. Patients may be intolerant of, or resistant to, docetaxel, or may have been previously treated with the agent without definite disease progression during therapy. Patients must meet the study eligibility criteria and must be competent to give informed consent.
The purpose of this study is to find out whether the new drug PX-866 will slow the growth of your prostate cancer. The investigators will also watch you carefully for any side effects that PX-866 might cause.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether GTx 758 is effective in achieving and maintaining castrate testosterone levels in men with advanced prostate cancer.
This study will primarily compare the effectiveness of surgery and radiation for localized prostate cancer, the most common male cancer. It will focus on modern technologies and control for differences in patients and treatments that may affect both cancer-related and patient-reported outcomes (such as impotence and incontinence). By figuring out what treatments "work best, in which patients and in whose hands", it will help men with prostate cancer make better decisions regarding their care.
The aim of the study is a medico-economic evaluation to estimate a cost differential between three modalities of Intensity-Modulated Radiation Therapy for cancers of the prostate, cervix and anal canal with pelvic lymph node irradiation : treatment with helical Tomotherapy and dynamic arc therapy using two different technologies: RapidArc or VMAT.
This study was designed to investigate the effects of epidural anesthesia combined with general anesthesia during laparoscopic surgery. The investigators hypothesized that epidural anesthesia will effectively block the activation of the sympathetic nervous system during surgery, thus activating nitric oxide and reducing splanchnic ischemia and decrease in postoperative renal function.
Prostate cancer is the most common cancer in American men. Surgical removal of the entire prostate (prostatectomy) is one option among the various ways to treat prostate cancer. The use of robot assistance for prostatectomy has become common place, but its effectiveness has not been compared to standard open prostatectomy in trials carried out at more than one medical institution in which participants are identified and followed forward in time. Robot assisted and standard open prostatectomy health related quality of life (HRQOL) outcomes have not been compared in a prospective, multi-centered study. Prostatectomy can have side effects that can change with time. This research study seeks to determine how common and how long-lasting such side effects are; to find out what features of individual men's cancers and what features of the treatments affect those side effects. This study also seeks to identify factors that affect the quality of prostate cancer care by looking at how satisfied men are with their prostate cancer care. Through these findings, this study aims to allow treatment side effects to be anticipated more accurately for individual patients, and to provide a means for determining the quality of prostate care.
Primary Objective: - To assess the tolerability at global doses Secondary Objectives: - Safety - Pharmacokinetics - Efficacy
The goal of this clinical research study is to find out the highest tolerable dose of an imaging solution called 18-F-fluoroacetate sodium that can be given before a positron emission tomography (PET) scan. The safety of this solution will also be studied.
The objective of this study was to describe treatment patterns of leuprorelin over 2 years using an intermittent, adjuvant regimen in participants with advanced prostate cancer (PCa)
