Filter by:Study to compare the effects of the investigational new drug (PF-06946860) and a placebo on appetite and to find out how participants with advanced cancer and anorexia feel after receiving repeated subcutaneous (SC-injected under the skin) doses.
In this expanded access IND study, Mayo Clinic in Rochester MN offers [Ga-68] PSMA-11 PET/CT or PET/MR imaging to patients who meet criteria.
We are conducting a randomised trial comparing outcomes of transperineal prostate biopsies under free-hand software assisted MRI/US fusion with transrectal biopsy guide software assisted MRI/US fusion. Primary outcome is the detection of clinically significant prostate cancer. Secondary outcomes is rate of complications including infection and sepsis, as well as feasibility and patient tolerability.
Prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA)-targeted PET imaging with 68Ga-labeled compounds is able to provide superior sensitivity and specificity to detect primary prostate tumor and its metastases, like the widely studied 68Ga-PSMA-617. This pilot study was prospectively designed to evaluate the early dynamic distribution of 68Ga-P16-093, a novel radiopharmaceutical targeting PSMA, which was compared with 68Ga-PSMA-617 in the same group of prostate cancer patients.
Less than 50% of patients receiving salvage radiation therapy (SRT) to the pelvis as treatment for prostate cancer relapsing after surgery will achieve undetectable Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) levels. Despite SRT, two-thirds of patients will again develop elevated PSA, 20% will have distant metastases, and 10% will die from prostate cancer within 10 years. The reason for this is probably preexisting distant metastasis and lymph node metastasises which need to better targeted directly. Additionally , there are well known permanent side effects to SRT. Standard imaging techniques have poor sensitivity detecting recurrence when PSA is below 1.0 ng/ml. The surface protein Prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) is overexpressed on prostate cancer cells and 68Gallium (68Ga)- and 18Fluorine (18F)-targeted radioligands have been developed. PSMA PET/CT is used increasingly but there is limited data of its impact. In this study patients with biochemical relapse of prostate cancer after surgery are randomised to the control or experimental group (1:2) and undergo a PSMA PET/CT scan. The experimental group receives individualised therapy based on the result of the PET/CT. The control group receives standard salvage therapy and the result of the PET/CT is blinded. The patients are followed-up with PSA test and quality of life questionnaires.
Multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) is now widely used to risk stratify men with a suspicion of prostate cancer and identify suspicious regions for biopsy. Advanced MRI techniques have emerged which seek to improve this characterisation and could predict biopsy results non-invasively before men undergo biopsy. Before these techniques are translated clinically, robust histological and clinical validation is required. This study aims to clinically validate advanced MRI techniques in a cohort of men suspected with prostate cancer. Histological analysis of men undergoing biopsy, +/- prostatectomy will be used for biological validation of VERDICT; Vascular and Extracellular Restricted Diffusion for Cytometry in Tumours and Luminal Water imaging (LWI). In particular, prostatectomy specimens will be processed using 3-D printed patient-specific moulds to allow for accurate MRI and histology mapping.
This is a prospective, open-label, multi-center seamless phase II to phase III randomized clinical trial designed to compare SST with or without PET-directed local therapy in improving the castration-resistant prostate cancer-free survival (CRPC-free survival) for Veterans with oligometastatic prostate cancer. Oligometastasis will be defined as 1-10 sites of metastatic disease based on the clinical determination of the LSI which incorporates all imaging, clinical, and pathologic data available.
The purpose of study is to compare the safety and pharmacokinetics of PT105 with PT105R in healthy postmenopausal female volunteers
This intervention includes the introduction of the Prostate Cancer Working Group (PCWG )Smart PSA Screening Guidelines and implementation of patient navigation/ care coordination for men with elevated PSA (>4.0 ng/mL). The guidelines include: 1. What age to start? 2. How often to repeat screening? 3. What age to stop? 4. What PSA threshold should trigger a biopsy referral?
This research study is examining whether Neratinib has any activity in participants with prostate cancer that has spread and is no longer responding to hormonal treatment. - The names of the study drug involved in this study is neratinib.
