Filter by:This is a prospective phase II study to assess the efficacy and toxicity of HSV-tk+ valacyclovir gene therapy in combination with androgen deprivation therapy, brachytherapy, external beam radiotherapy, and prostatectomy in previously untreated high-risk prostate cancer.
This study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of a therapeutic vaccine in combination with PD-1 knockout T cells in the treatment of advanced prostate cancer.
The aim of this study is to investigate the clinical value of [18F]aluminum fluoride-1,4,7-triazacyclononane-1,4,7-triacetic acid-neurotensin（18F-AlF-NOTA-neurotensin）positron emission tomography / computed tomography (PET/CT) in patients with prostate cancer (PCa).
This study will enroll 60 patients previously enrolled to MCC#18523, "A Validation Study on the Impact of Decipher® Testing on Treatment Recommendations in African-American and Non-African American Men with Prostate Cancer: (VANDAAM)" that had high risk Decipher test results (Decipher score >0.45). Patients with a high genomic classifier (GC) score at diagnosis will be approached for formal consenting for PSMA-PET imaging at 2 years post treatment.
The purpose of this study is collect observational data regarding patterns of care and outcomes of focal therapies for prostate cancer, including but not limited to: high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU), cryotherapy, focal laser ablation, irreversible electroporation, photodynamic therapy, and brachytherapy.
Prostate cancer screening with PSA is plagued by high rate of unnecessary prostate biopsies, especially in the "gray zone" (4.00ng/ml e 10.99ng/ml). We introduce a new circulating-tumor-cell (CTC) biomarker for detection of prostate cancer in patients in the PSA "gray zone" level, with the clinically verified potential to substantially decrease the number of unnecessary prostate biopsies.
Prostate cancer is the most common male cancer in global, which accounts for 19% of the total and poses great hazards to male health. Unfavorable factors including prostatic specific antigen (PSA) >20 ng/ml, Gleason score >8, and T3/4 are significantly associated with biological recurrence, metastatic progression and poor survival in prostate cancer. In clinical T4(cT4) prostate cancer with bladder invasion patients, symptoms of hematuria, urinary urgency, bladder outlet and ureteral obstruction, and pelvic pain led to a poor quality of life. Radical prostatectomy is crucial for the multimodal treatment of prostate cancer, but limited proof demonstrated enough advantages of the surgery in T4 tumor with bladder invasion. Radical prostatectomy could hardly meet both demands of local tumor control and urinary function. Treatment trends suggest that patients with T4 prostate cancer be treated with radiotherapy combined with androgen deprivation therapy (ADT). However, surgery enables a full pathological assessment of the tumor characteristics and thus a better estimation of the risk of recurrence. Cystoprostatectomy offers an option of surgical treatment for T4 prostate cancer with bladder invasion，which can well remove the bladder and urethra, decrease the risk of positive surgical margins and avoid urination complications. There is no consensus regarding optimal treatment of T4 prostate cancer and no evidence of oncological outcomes of cystoprostatectomy from clinical trials. A randomized clinical trial comparing two multimodal treatment regimens of cystoprostatectomy and radiotherapy for T4 prostate cancer with bladder invasion is therefore warranted.
This is an investigator initiated study to test the efficacy of an upright MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) for the screening of prostate cancer. The purpose of this study is to compare Upright MRI as a technique to PSA (Prostate Specific Antigen) and current MRI imaging. It will take place at Mount Sinai Hospital, and last for a total of about 5 years. Eligible patients will be determined by the urologist. The target population is men who are at risk for prostate cancer, as determined by the urologist. Diagnostic criteria will include elevated PSA and an abnormal digital rectal exam (DRE). After patients are screened and determined eligible, they will be asked to have a seated MRI using the Indomitable Magnetic Resonance Imaging Scanner, Ex vivo magnetic resonance imaging using 0.6 T strength, as well as a standard of care closed 3T MRI. After each scan, the patient will be given a series of questionnaires to assess their comfort level during the scan. Patients will be followed every 6 months after completion of (or early withdrawal from) study enrollment until 5 years.
BIOPSTAGE is a prospective, non-randomized, diagnostic, multi-cohort investigational study to evaluate the impact of pelvic Multi-parametric 3-Tesla magnetic resonance imaging (mp-3TMRI) and whole-body 68Ga-PSMA PET/CT for diagnosis of clinically-significant prostate cancer and pre-surgical staging.
This is a pilot study assessing efficacy and safety in patients with advanced prostate cancer.
