Filter by:This study is a prospective randomized controlled clinical trial aimed at comparing the detection rates of clinically significant prostate cancer between conventional biopsy methods and AI-assisted biopsy methods in patients undergoing initial prostate biopsy who meet the indications for prostate biopsy.
This research constitutes a multi-centric, case-control designed investigation aimed at developing and implementing a blinded validation of a machine learning-powered, multi-cancer early detection model. This is to be achieved through the prospective collection of blood specimens from newly diagnosed cancer patients and individuals devoid of a confirmed cancer diagnosis
To test the hypothesis that intensive cholesterol lowering (iCL) therapy has anti-tumor immune modulating activity, the investigators will conduct an open-label, single-arm phase II trial in prostate cancer patients who are in active surveillance and undergoing a planned surveillance biopsy in 3-6 months. Eligible patients will initiate iCL with Vytorin®(group 1, 2, and 3), an FDA-approved combination of ezetimibe and simvastatin used to lower atherogenic low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) or Ezetimibe (group 4). Starting dose will be determined by current statin use and LDL-C levels. Dose modifications of VYTORIN will be employed with the goal of achieving LDL-C <70 mg/dl. Dose adjustment is not allowed for ezetimibe.
Prostate cancer is a significant concern for Latiné men, with over 17,000 new cases annually. Decision-making for treatment is complex, especially due to barriers like low health literacy and cultural factors. Research on survivorship and post-treatment issues like erectile dysfunction is lacking. To improve care, a study will engage 288 participants across various medical facilities, including 100 at Cleveland Clinic. Thirty subjects will participate in focus groups representing Spanish-speaking Latiné, bilingual Latiné, and English-speaking non-Latiné individuals to understand their perspectives and enhance communication. This aims to develop tailored resources, like Spanish-language educational videos, addressing language and cultural needs for informed decision-making.
This study is an open, prospective, single-center observational clinical study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of immediate adjuvant ADT with darotarolimide in the treatment of patients with positive lymph nodes after radical prostatectomy for prostate cancer.
AdOTAC is a pilot study, open, prospective, single-center, one-arm. The 200 patients will be included. Patient is included at Day 0. The included patient will have the opportunity to complete the self-questionnaires either at the ICL on Day 0, or at home up to 10 days after the date of inclusion in the study. Blood samples are collected the day of enrolment (Day 0) in order to measure the following biological markers: ferritin, serum iron, TSAT, albumin, and haemoglobin, except if performed as part of routine care in the previous 6 weeks.
This study is being done to compare how much using Cytalux™ (pafolacianine) with NIR (Near InfraRed) fluorescent imaging improves the detection of malignant (growing in an uncontrolled way) tissue in adult subjects undergoing prostatectomy and lymph node dissection for biopsy confirmed prostate cancer. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved the targeted imaging agent pafolacianine (Cytalux) for use in ovarian cancer (2021) and lung cancer surgery (2022.)
This study was designed as a prospective, multicentre, double-blind, randomised controlled clinical trial. It aims to investigate the feasibility and safety of the posterior approach extrafascial technique and the anterior approach extrafascial technique in robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) for intermediate- and high-risk prostate cancer patients, to compare the oncological prognosis, functional prognosis, and safety of the two techniques in intermediate- and high-risk prostate cancer patients, and to provide evidence-based medical evidence for the choice of surgical treatment modality for intermediate- and high-risk prostate cancer patients.
The current healthcare system is unable to identify burdened and vulnerable families affected by cancer, partly due to a lack of knowledge of how cancer affects family health during treatment and survivorship. Recent reviews have documented a general lack of cancer studies including both the patient and the family, and a particular deficiency in studies including more than the spouse. The principal aim of this study is to investigate family health, needs and perceived support, quality of life, self-efficacy, depression, stress and resilience in both patients with cancer and their families across the cancer trajectory. Additionally, the study seeks to identify particularly burdened and vulnerable families and investigate contributing factors to their vulnerability.
This clinical trial is to provide a minimally invasive treatment option in which the targeted prostate cancer tissue is killed by microwave only in the specific area of cancer "that should be treated for saving of life"; while, leaving a portion of the normal prostate tissue that is not cancerous. It is a treatment, named by "focal therapy" for "clinically localized prostate cancer". As this new treatment is aiming to treat only specific prostatic area of cancer, it is different from the invasive conventional treatment to remove the entire prostate gland. The goal is to achieve both to control of known cancer by treating only the cancerous area and to maintain of QOL (Quality-of-life) by leaving of the other normal prostate tissue and its surrounding organs intact resulting in prevention of urinary-leakage and sexual-dysfunction as the complications.
