Filter by:OPTIMUM is a study designed to compare the ability of ultra-high resolution transrectal micro-ultrasound (microUS) and multiparametric MRI (mpMRI)/US fusion to guide prostate biopsy.
Study of NGM831 as Monotherapy and in Combination with Pembrolizumab or Pembrolizumab and NGM438 in Advanced or Metastatic Solid Tumors
Oligo-metastatic prostate cancer (OMPCa) is considered as an intermediated state between localized and poly-metastatic disease. Various retrospective studies and prospective clinical trials are carrying out to validate whether patients with OMPCa could benefit from local treatment for both primary and metastatic lesions. The investigators here to conduct a unique clinical trial which OMPCa patients were confirmed by conventional imaging, and received a long-term enhanced systemic therapy accompanied by tumor-directed therapy.
Phase III study of stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) plus standard of care in castration sensitive oligometastatic prostate cancer patients, defined as androgen deprivation therapy plus radiotherapy to the primary tumor in previously not treated patients and second generation hormonal treatments (Apalutamide/Abiraterone+Prednisone/Enzalutamide) vs androgen deprivation therapy plus radiotherapy to the primary tumor in previously not treated patients plus second generation hormonal treatments, for the treatment of oligometastatic prostate cancer.
The objective of this study is to investigate possible factors that will affect the choice of androgen deprivation therapy in prostate cancer patients. This is a cross-sectional study performed in Prince of Wales Hospital in Hong Kong. One hundred patients will be recruited for this study.
This is an observational study in which patient data from the past on men with prostate cancer are studied. Cancer is a condition in which the body cannot control the growth of cells and tumors may form. If tumors form in the prostate, male sex hormones (androgens) can sometimes help the cancer spread and grow. Cancer that spreads to other parts of the body is called metastasis. Androgens are mainly made in the testicles. There are treatments available for men with prostate cancer to lower the levels of these hormones in the body. These treatments are called androgen deprivation therapy (ADT). Some men with prostate cancer respond to ADT, but in some cases, prostate cancer may overcome the therapy and worsen despite low androgens levels. Second generation androgen receptor inhibitors (SGARIs) including darolutamide, apalutamide, and enzalutamide are available for the treatment of prostate cancer in addition to ADT. SGARIs work by blocking androgens from attaching to proteins in cancer cells in the prostate. Clinical studies have shown that men with prostate cancer benefit from these treatments. But besides benefits, unfavorable reactions related to these treatments also influence which treatment is chosen, if the treatment is taken as intended or if it is even stopped. Unfavorable reactions observed for darolutamide, apalutamide, and enzalutamide differ from each other. In clinical trials, severe unfavorable reactions occurred less often for darolutamide. But information on how unfavorable reactions of each treatment influence their intake in actual or "real-world" prostate cancer treatment is missing. The main aim of this observational study is to learn to what extent SGARI treatments are taken as prescribed and how often their intake is completely stopped. To find this out, researchers will collect available treatment data of adult men with prostate cancer from the United States who started SGARI treatments between August 2019 and March 2021. The data will be drawn from the IQVIA database. For each man, data from up to 1 year prior SGARI treatment until at least 3 months after treatment start (up to the 30 June 2021) will be collected. The researchers will look at the percentage of men who: - completely stopped to take their treatment or - took the treatment as prescribed. The results for each treatment (darolutamide, apalutamide, and enzalutamide) will then be compared to find possible differences. There will be no required visits with a study doctor or required tests in this study since only patient data from the past are studied.
The present study is the last part of a larger project investigating the health, quality of life and function of men having received radical treatment for prostate cancer in 2014-2018. In this study, physical function and level of physical activity will be tested and registered in a selection of older men who participated in the foregoing parts of the project. Comparisons will be made to similar data from a population-based cohort, matched on age and education.
Patients will receive a single dose of 68Ga-PSMA-11 and undergo a PET/CT or PET/MRI imaging study.
Prostate cancer is a type of cancer that can occur in men, especially in the fifth and sixth decades of their lives, and various side effects occur depending on the treatments applied in the diagnosed patients. The treatments applied and the decreased level of physical activity also cause a decrease in the quality of life. Recent studies have focused on treatment-related side effects. Before treatment planning, there is a need for clinically validated clinical evaluations specific to prostate cancer patients in order to determine the current status of the patients or to measure the effectiveness of the treatment applied. In addition, tests with a minimal detectable amount of change will be guiding in order to understand that the effectiveness of the applied treatment is significant. The aim of our study is to investigate the validity, reliability and minimal detectable changes of the two-minute walk, sit up and time up and go tests validated in different disease groups for patients with prostate cancer.
The investigators explore the biodistribution of FAPI-PET expression in primary high-risk prostate cancer in men undergoing RALP and eLND and in men with metastatic PCa about to start next generation antiandrogen.
