Filter by:This phase I/II escalation dose study is assessing the efficacy of the recommended dose of stereotactic re-irradiation (SBRT) of relapses within the prostatectomy bed, potentiated by metformin
Exercise has been established to be safe and result in improved physical function and quality of life for most individuals with cancer. However, little information exists regarding whether exercise can increase overall survival and reduce disease progression, events related to cancer spreading to the bones (e.g. bone fracture, spinal cord compression, extra radiation or surgery), and pain in patients with metastatic prostate cancer that is no longer responding to hormone therapy. The primary objective of this study is to determine if high intensity aerobic and resistance training plus psychosocial support increases overall survival compared to psychosocial support alone in prostate cancer patients. The Movember foundation is providing support for the conduct of this study
The aim of the study is to identify the specific patterns of communication between doctors and oncological patients during medical consultations and develop recommendations to improve its effectiveness.
The purpose of the initial (phase I) portion of this study is to find a dose level and administration schedule of the study drug, 225Ac-J591, that can be given without severe side effects. The purpose of the second (phase II) portion of the study is to determine the proportion of those with PSMA-positive tumors with >50% PSA decline following 225Ac-J591 treatment in two regimens.
A phase I trial to determine the safety of delivering three sequentially shorter RT schedules (20, 16, and 12 fractions) of HypoFx pelvic nodal RT in combination with a HypoFx, simultaneous integrated boost (SIB) to the prostate that have been designed to incrementally increased the biological equivalent dose (BED) to prostate cancer, while maintaining a constant BED to normal tissue toxicity.
The overall goal of this study is to determine if implementing structured exercises prevent decline in muscle mass, muscle strength and physical function in men with prostate cancer undergoing androgen deprivation therapy (ADT). Our main hypothesis is that structured resistance exercise training in men undergoing ADT will preserve physical function assessed by loaded stair climbing power compared with the control group. The trial will also examine the efficacy of the exercise regimen on muscle strength, QOL and fatigue. The findings of this trial will lay the groundwork for definitive intervention trials to prevent frailty and falls in these men.
Prostate cancer is the most common cancer among men 50 years and older and mainly affets patients 75 years old. Androgen deprivation therapy is indicatated in intermediates and high risks form of prostate cancer, in association with radiotherapy for 6 monts to 3 years. It is also indicated after surgery. Current therapies induce inhibition of sexual hormones as androgens among which testosterone. These therapies present side effects which have to be acknowledeged during the elaboration therapeutic startegies in older patients: hypogonadism induced by androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) causes loss of bone mineral density, diminution of lean body mass and increase of fat body mass. Sarcopenia is defined by a loss of muscle strength associated to a decrease in skeletal muscle mass. In addition to aging, many factors may contribute to sarcopenia as cancer and/or ADT. This cohort study aims to evaluate risk factors associated to sarcopenia prevalence and the relationship between ADT and sarcopenia incidence, in patients 70 years or older with localized or locally advanced prostate cancer
The objective of this study is to evaluate, in patients diagnosed with prostate cancer who undergo radical prostatectomy and who require postoperative radiotherapy, tolerance in terms of acute and chronic GU and GI toxicity and efficacy in terms of biochemical control and survival, as well as of quality of life, from a hypofractional external radiotherapy scheme, increasing the dose per fraction in a shorter period of time.
Project EXCEL will provide community or online exercise programs to rural and remote and under-served cancer survivors, as well as encourage participants to become life-long exercisers. Exercise is an evidence-based self-management strategy that benefits all cancer survivors. However, most cancer survivors who live in remote or rural places don't have adequate opportunities to be involved in exercise programs that are tailored to their needs.
This is an open-label, two-part, phase 1-2 dose-finding study designed to determine the safety, tolerability, PK, PD, and proof-of-concept efficacy of ST101 administered IV in patients with advanced solid tumors. The study consists of two phases: a phase 1 dose escalation/regimen exploration phase and a phase 2 expansion phase.
