Filter by:The current trial will test the combination of darolutamide with SBRT, in oligometastatic recurrent hormone sensitive prostate cancer. We hypothesize that the addition of short-term darolutamide improves metastasis-free survival when added to SBRT without a detrimental impact on the QoL. Considering the large reluctance of both patients and physicians to be randomized to observation, we propose to use the historical data from previous reported randomized trials (STOMP and ORIOLE) as a comparator to explore as a secondary endpoint.
Minimally invasive surgery has developed widely since the 1980s and has revolutionized the practices of surgeons. In urology, the development of laparoscopy and then robot-assisted surgery has considerably improved the management of pathologies. In France, as in all the countries concerned, the spread of robotic surgery has taken place without prior studies validating this new technology, nor organizational rules in terms of quality and access to care. The report of the Haute Autorité de Santé dated November 2016 underlines the weakness of the methodological quality of studies and meta-analyzes evaluating robot-assisted total prostatectomy compared to other surgical techniques by laparotomy or conventional laparoscopy. It therefore appears important to evaluate in a large study the interest of this technique in order to help the authorities to decide on the real benefit of this technology and to provide reliable answers to the patients.
This study is a prospective, open label, single-arm study to examine the performance and safety of the SENSEI® laparoscopic tethered gamma probe in patients undergoing 99mTc-nanocolloid SLNB for prostate cancer (PCa) during RP and ePLND surgery. Patients scheduled for RP and ePLND using the standard treatment pathways at each centre will have preoperative 99mTc-nanocolloid imaging. RP and ePLND will be conducted as standard of care, with SLNB guided by the SENSEI® laparoscopic tethered gamma probe carried out after RP and prior to ePLND. The first 2 patients per site (N = 10 in total) are considered to be sufficient to enable further familiarisation with the procedure and use of the probe in addition to the usability work and training that the sites did prior to the start of this study. Subsequent patients will be evaluable for the PP population. The primary analysis of diagnostic performance will be performed using the PP population of patients with SLN identified on preoperative imaging
The purpose of this study is to determine what effects (good and bad) cabozantinib has in treatment of patients with metastatic castrate resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). The hypothesis for this trial is that cabozantinib has anti-tumor activity in a molecularly-selected group of patients with CRPC.
This study investigates the ability of heat shock protein HSP70 to isolate and quantify circulating tumor cells (CTCs) in patients with advanced or metastatic tumors. CTCs will be isolated from peripheral blood before antineoplastic treatment and again after three months. Isolation using HSP70 will be compared with standard CTC isolation by EpCAM. Additionally, imaging parameters of the primary tumor (if available) and metastases will be analysed and correlations between molecular alterations and imaging parameters will be assesed.
The aim of the STHLM3 AS NorDCaP study is to evaluate the Stockholm3 test in an active surveillance cohort to predict upgrading on rebiopsy. The study follows a paired design, evaluating our proposed protocol for follow up men on active surveillance with Stockholm3 versus the standard protocol according to national guidelines with PSA.
Genitourinary malignancies such as prostate cancer, renal cell cancer, and bladder cancer in Korean population have been increased due to the aged population and the westernized lifestyles. With the advancement of technologies, studies have found that microbiome not only affects human physiological functions, such as metabolism, immunity, and haematopoiesis, but also plays a significant role in the development and progression of malignancies. However, the investigation of microbiome in urological malignances have been limited and few studies have been reported. Therefore, the investigator tried to evaluate the usefulness of microbiome in detection and monitoring of urological malignancies in Korean population. This study aims to use microbiome in tissue, plasma, stool and urine for the diagnosis, disease progression monitoring and therapeutic response evaluation. This study plan includes building big databases for microbiome of urological malignancies in Korean population.
de Novo metastatic prostate cancer with limited metastatic spread benefits from local radiotherapy to the prostate. Two different fractionation schedules will be tested.
This research study is designed to determine if targeted Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) Ultrasound (US) fusion biopsy is better than the standard of care ultrasound guided biopsy alone in diagnosing subjects with clinically significant prostate cancer with MRI visible lesions. This study will consist of comparing the standard of care (ultrasound guided prostate biopsy) with the protocol biopsy which consists of an ultrasound guided prostate biopsy and a MRI/US fusion tracked prostate biopsy.
The purpose of this research is to investigate whether stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT), precise X-ray treatment, is best given in five treatments (also called fractions) over 10 days or in two treatments over 8 days. SBRT is an accurate way to deliver a high dose of radiotherapy to the prostate in a smaller number of doses. We have considerable experience with 5-dose SBRT and now wish to examine the feasibility and safety of delivering treatment over two, larger, doses. Previous work has shown it is theoretically possible to deliver two fraction SBRT on the MR-linac and previous studies have shown internal radiotherapy (brachytherapy) administered in two fractions to be a safe option for patients with low-risk prostate cancer. All treatment within this trial will be delivered on a new, state of the art, radiotherapy machine called an MR-linac (Magnetic Resonance Linear Accelerator). It puts together an MRI scanner with a radiotherapy treatment machine called a Linear Accelerator. The use of the MR-linac means there is no extra radiation dose given when taking images (unlike computerized tomography (CT) scans or X-ray), enabling us to adapt the radiotherapy plan each day if needed to more precisely target the prostate. The results of the study will enable us to find out if the new, shorter treatment (2 doses of radiotherapy), has a similar level of side effects as the 5 dose treatment and is suitable for further study.
