Filter by:This study will explore the combination of a stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) approach combined with one year of luteinizing hormone releasing hormone (LHRH) agonist for older men with high risk prostate cancer, or men unwilling to undertake conventionally fractionated therapy and three years of adjuvant hormone therapy. The purpose of this study is to examine the safety of a shorter course of radiation treatment combined wtih androgen deprivation therapy.
The purpose of this study is to further elucidate the molecular mechanisms underlying prostate cancer disparities. In previous work the investigators have identified a set of differentially deregulated genes in African American versus Caucasian American prostate cancer. Based on these findings, they hypothesize that they will be able to validate these targets, originally identified in the previous work conducted at The George Washington University Medical Center, in an independent Duke University Medical Center cohort of prostate cancer specimens. In addition, the investigators hypothesize that they will be able to discover novel targets in the Duke University Medical Center cohort of prostate cancer specimens because of regional differences.
The purpose of this study is to assess the performance of a system of intraoperative dynamic dosimetry during prostate seed implantation (brachytherapy) including its new elements, to evaluate and refine technical methods of using the system, as well as confirm its performance and accuracy.
This study aims to determine the safety and tolerability of Radium-223 when administered in combination with enzalutamide in progressive metastatic castrate-resistant prostate cancer.
This study evaluates how once daily enzalutamide affects the metabolism of caffeine and dextromethorphan in men with prostate cancer by measuring concentrations of these drugs and their metabolites in plasma.
This is a pilot, feasibility/exploratory study to evaluate the safety of laser interstitial thermal therapy (LITT) using Visualase in the focal treatment of localized prostate cancer as well as to gather data for the design of future studies.
The purpose of this study is to test how well an online program designed to help prostate cancer survivors cope with changes caused by their cancer or treatment works compared to standard print educational materials from the National Cancer Institute (NCI).
The hypothesis of the study is that targeted MRI/US fusion-guided prostate biopsy with additional systematic transrectal ultrasound (TRUS)-guided biopsy significantly detects more prostate cancers than targeted MR-guided in-bore prostate.
The purpose of this study is to see what effects (good and bad) treatment with abiraterone acetate (an oral hormonal agent) and prednisone (a steroid) with and without cabazitaxel (a chemotherapy) have on the cancer and to find out more about whether specific laboratory tests on tumor are useful in predicting how the patient will respond to treatment.
Determine the effect of enzalutamide and dutasteride or finasteride on the time to prostatic-specific antigen level increase in patients age 65 or older.
