Filter by:Surgical implantation of Lyopreserved Placental Tissue (LPT) is FDA approved and has been used extensively in wound care. The use is expanding and more recently, LPT has been used in the management of diabetic foot ulcers, acute and chronic surgical wounds, various fistulas and even as a nerve wrap on the common peroneal nerve. Surgical technique for nerve-sparing prostatectomy has evolved continuously since first described by Walsh in 1982 and is now commonly performed with robotic assistance. The investigators intend to study whether placement of LPT over the spared neurovascular bundle during nerve-sparing robotic prostatectomy will improve return to potency and/or continence after robotic radical prostatectomy for prostate cancer. Patients with a preoperative Sexual Health Inventory for Men (SHIM) score > 19 (moderate or high pre-op sexual function) planning to undergo robotic-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy will be randomized to receive direct placement of LPT over the preserved neurovascular bundles vs standard of care. Patients will independently report erectile function and continence at 1 months, 3 months, 6 months and 1 year after surgery. Primary outcomes would include mean time to achieve potency, percentage of group achieving potency at each time point, and mean change in SHIM score. Secondary outcomes would include mean time to achieve continence. The investigators will also report any adverse events.
This is a single-arm feasibility study that is recruiting 40 patients with histologically-proven localized prostate cancer and MRI-defined lesion(s). Participants in this study will get MR-guided radiotherapy boost to MRI visible tumour before or after whole gland radiation. Participants will be followed-up as per standard of care schedule up to 5 years post-treatment.
This study aims to make a first step towards ultra-hypofractionation for high-risk prostate cancer by proving the technical feasibility of margin reduction of the seminal vesicles by combining the intra-fraction fiducial tracking with an online re-planning workflow for each fraction to account for the inter-fraction seminal vesicle motion.
Benefits of physical activity (PA) as supportive care in cancer have been widely demonstrated by the scientific community. However, survivors who have completed chemo-radio-immunotherapy treatments doesn't achieve PA recommendations on average. This reinforces the need to identify factors influencing PA level, and to propose a multilevel model (macro-, meso-, micro-level) to understand better what facilitates the adoption and maintenance of active behaviour and what hinders it. To date, there is no ecological model in France explaining this behaviour in the post-treatment phase of breast, colorectal, prostate, and lung cancers. From this initial model, we seek to design an educational and motivational intervention in PA. Thus, the investigators propose to test the feasibility of implementing an individualized program to increase and maintain level of physical activity and to decrease sedentary behaviours in physically inactive cancer survivors. This program is based through and identification of barriers and facilitators of an active lifestyle among this population.
The aim is to investigate whether the addition of short-term androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) during 1 month or short-term ADT during 6 months together with an androgen receptor targeted therapy (ARTA) to metastasis-directed therapy (MDT) significantly prolongs poly-metastatic free survival (PMFS) and/or metastatic castration-refractory prostate cancer free survival (mCRPC-FS) in patients with oligorecurrent hormone sensitive prostate cancer.
The study aims to develop educational media interventions to prepare Latinx Spanish-speaking radiation oncology patients for a course of breast or prostate cancer radiation therapy and to foster receptivity and informed decision-making around cancer clinical trial participation.
The purpose of this study is to assess late gastro-intestinal side-effects comparing proton therapy to photon therapy in high-risk prostate cancer patients receiving whole pelvic irradiation.
This study will assess the efficacy and safety of capivasertib plus docetaxel versus placebo plus docetaxel in participants with metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC), all participants will receive the docetaxel with steroid therapy and receive androgen deprivation therapy. The intention of the study is to demonstrate that the combination of capivasertib plus docetaxel is superior to placebo plus docetaxel with respect to the overall survival of study participants, when overall survival is defined as the time from randomization until the date of death due to any cause.
Randomized non-comparative phase II trial to assess the preliminary signs of antitumor activity of darolutamide plus radiation therapy in patients with unfavorable intermediate risk prostate cancer.
This is a single-site trial for 42 subjects with intermediate risk prostate cancer who undergo Irreversible Electroporation (IRE) followed by Magnetic Resonance guided Radiotherapy MRgRT. The investigators hypothesize that the combined therapy will feasible and be safe to perform with low morbidity. Ultimately, RTIRE may provide optimal treatment for intermediate risk prostate cancer patients.
