Filter by:This is a descriptive, observational, prospective, open-ended, registry utilising electronic data capture to collect information on the outcomes of men treated with prostate specific-membrane antigen (PSMA) theranostics.
The DISCO App is designed to improve, during the interaction, patient active participation and patient-initiated oncologist treatment cost discussions, and, in the short term, patient's treatment cost knowledge, self-efficacy for managing both cost and physician interactions, referrals, perceived financial toxicity (i.e., distress and material hardship); in turn, these will affect longer-term outcomes of financial toxicity and adherence.
The IMPACT Study seeks to refine and evaluate the effectiveness of interventions on improving guideline-adherent cancer risk management (CRM) and family communication (FC) of genetic test results for individuals with a documented pathogenic/likely pathogenic (P/LP) variant, and FC of family cancer history for individuals with a variant of uncertain significance (VUS) in an inherited cancer gene.
This study aims to evaluate the use of a prostate cancer specific predisposition genetic panel test in men with / at high risk of prostate cancer. The genetic test will analyse men's DNA samples for the presence of mutations in rare genes as well as common genetic variation to provide men with information about their risk of prostate cancer. This study will evaluate the clinical impact of the test on risk assessment and clinical management in terms of screening and treatment.
Genetic testing is a type of test that detects changes to the genes-the DNA instructions that are passed on from the mother and father. The results of a genetic test can confirm whether the participant has a genetic disorder, which is a disease caused in whole or in part by changes to the genes. Genetic testing can also help determine a person's chance of getting or passing on a genetic disorder. Genetic tests use a sample of blood, hair, skin, or other tissue, and they can look at one gene or multiple genes at the same time. Genetic testing may change the options for treating people with certain types of cancer. For example, some medications are more helpful for the treatment of cancer in people with certain gene changes (mutations). The researchers are doing this study to develop new educational materials about genetic testing for people who speak different languages and have diverse cultural and educational backgrounds. During the study, the staff will interview participants with diverse cultural and educational backgrounds and ask them to review a sample of the educational materials that have been developed so far. Participants will give their opinions on these materials, and the researchers will use participants' feedback to improve the materials.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of radiation therapy with hormone therapy (ADT) and chemotherapy as an investigational study treatment for prostate cancer. This is a phase 2 study to deliver focal radiation with pulsed systemic therapy of Abiraterone, ADT and Lynparza (olaparib) in men with castration sensitive oligometastatic prostate cancer.
In France, prostate cancer is the most common cancer in men over 50 years of age (nearly 50,000 new cases per year) and is the second most common cause of cancer death in men (approximately 9,000 deaths per year). Although mortality has been declining since the end of the 1990s (about 7%/year), about 30 to 35% of them will have a biological recurrence. Accurate assessment of local, regional and distant spread of the disease is therefore needed to design optimal personalised care for each patient, either curative or palliative. Currently, in France, recommended disease assessment includes bone scintigraphy and Abdomino-Pelvic Magnetic Resonance Imaging. However, conventional imaging has limited performance with regard to lymph node extension. Node dissection is the best way to assess node status. Currently, no imaging exam allows this level of accuracy. Recently, molecular imaging has emerged as a promising tool to improve the initial extensional assessment of prostate cancer. Prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) is a transmembrane glycoprotein, specific to the prostate, which is over-expressed on the surface of prostate cancer cells. Recent studies of PSMA PET/CT as part of the initial extension assessment of prostate cancer report superior diagnostic performance in terms of sensitivity and specificity compared to conventional tests, as well as an impact of PSMA PET/CT on patient management.
Multiparametric MRI of the prostate is recommended before each prostate biopsy. It identifies suspicious areas which will then be the subject of targeted biopsies. However, MRI suffers from low specificity and moderate inter-reader reproducibility, including with the use of the PI-RADS version 2.1 score. We are developing, within the framework of RHU PERFUSE, a computer-aided diagnosis system (CAD) for the detection of ISUP ≥2 cancers. This system has been trained on a database of patients who had prostate MRI and prostatectomy at the Hospices Civils de Lyon and performed well on a database of patients who had prostate MRI before biopsy at the Hopices civils de Lyon. However, one of the weaknesses of artificial intelligence systems is their low robustness when tested on MRI images from different manufacturers or institutions. The goal of the CHANGE study is to build a prospective multicenter cohort of patients who underwent prostate multiparametric MRI followed by systematic and targeted prostate biopsies. The cohort will be used for the final external validation of the CAD developed in PERFUSE.
To explore the use of curcumin and piperine supplementation at a dose of 4 gram/5mg twice a day in early stage prostate cancer patient undergoing active surveillance or patients on observation for MGUS/ low-risk smoldering myeloma.
A Phase 1/2a, open-label, multicenter study of intramuscular (i.m.) PRL-02 depot in participants with advanced prostate cancer.
