Filter by:The hepatic enzyme, cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4) is important for the metabolism of many drugs including taxanes. Previous reported studies reported a decreases in docetaxel exposure in prostate cancer patients compared to patients with other solid tumours. The difference was 1.8-fold for intravenous administration and 2.8-fold for oral administration. The underlying mechanism for these observations remains to be elucidated. The lower docetaxel exposure with IV and oral docetaxel treatment might be related to a higher CYP3A4 activity in prostate cancer patients. Therefore, it is important to directly compare the CYP3A4 activity with a phenotyping test in prostate cancer patients and patients with other types of solid tumours. This is an in vivo phenotyping studying using midazolam as a probe for CYP3A4 activity in patients with prostate cancer and patients with other solid tumours. The primary objective is the comparison of CYP3A4 activity in prostate cancer patients versus male patients with other types of solid tumours by use of an oral midazolam phenotyping test. Secondary objectives are: (1) measurement of plasma concentrations of midazolam and it's two primary metabolites (1'-hydroxy midazolam and 4'-hydroxy midazolam), (2) determination of the metabolite pharmacokinetics of midazolam. (3) retrospective assessment of single nucleotide polymorphisms of CYP3A4. The exploratory objective is to differentiate between gastro-intestinal and hepatic CYP3A4 activity with oral and intravenous administration of midazolam.
This study evaluates the diagnostic performance and safety of 18F-Thretide PET/CT in patients with biopsy proven prostate cancer who has no any form of therapy against prostate caner or suspected recurrence of prostate cancer who have negative or equivocal findings on conventional imaging.
The seven sweeps is a recommended act performed by men after urinating in order to be confident that no urine is left in the urethra, and its not compulsory to perform. It is performed by the following way: after urinating, the anus is first purified if it has become impure; then, the middle finger of the left hand is slid three times from the anus up to the scrotum; then, the thumb is placed on the penis and the forefinger is placed under the penis, and the thumb and forefinger are pulled three times along the penis up to the point of circumcision; finally, the end of the penis is pressed three times.
The PI-CAI challenge aims to validate the diagnostic performance of artificial intelligence (AI) and radiologists at clinically significant prostate cancer (csPCa) detection/diagnosis in MRI, with respect to histopathology and follow-up (≥ 3 years) as reference. The study hypothesizes that state-of-the-art AI algorithms, trained using thousands of patient exams, are non-inferior to radiologists reading bpMRI. As secondary end-points, it investigates the optimal AI model for csPCa detection/diagnosis, and the effects of dynamic contrast-enhanced imaging and reader experience on diagnostic accuracy and inter-reader variability.
This registry is for men who have prostate cancer and have had multigene panel hereditary testing. The registry will gather data on genetic testing results and how that information may change physician treatment or follow up recommendations. It will also gather data on the patient's experience with genetic testing, through a post-test survey to be completed 60-90days after results have been received and discussed with their provider.
The research was planned as a randomized controlled experimental study. This study is planned to be conducted in the Urology clinic of a university hospital located in the south of Turkey. The population of the research will be the patients admitted to the urology clinic for prostatectomy. The sample of the study will consist of patients who meet the criteria for participation in the study and volunteer to participate in the study. Evaluation of the research data will be done with the SPSS package program.

Purpose: To find the correlation between hemogram parameters and Delta Neutrophil Index(DNI) and Serum PSA in patients presenting with the diagnosis of acute prostatitis. Material-Metod: Serum PSA levels and hemogram parameters of patients who came to the urology outpatient clinic in January 2018 and May 2022 and were diagnosed with prostatitis were collected retrospectively.
The purpose of this study is to quantify and publish participants' relative preferences for outcomes of chemotherapy and novel oral hormonal agents when added to androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) for participants with locally-advanced and metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (mHSPC). This study will also quantify the importance of administration factors related to convenience relative to treatment outcomes.
The aim of this study is to facilitate collection of real-world data to test and train the analytics engine for each prototype algorithm. Preliminary datasets will be generated to enable a dry run of the prototype algorithms to check their predictive functionality as part of simulated 'experimental' scenarios at each LifeChamps partner site. This preparatory work will be critical to the development of the LifeChamps platform, prior to progressing to a larger scale feasibility trial.
