Filter by:The purpose of this study is to assess the benefit of immediate hormonal treatment after Radical Prostatectomy in Chinese and Russian patients with high risk prostate cancer. To reach this target, the trial will compare a group of patients treated with triptorelin at 8 weeks after the surgery and for a duration of 9 months (3 injections) versus another group (called "active surveillance group") who will be not receiving triptorelin. Both groups will be followed every 3 months to monitor any sign of disease progression during a minimum of 36 months
In this study, the investigators aim to determine if the Vienna nomogram increases the detection rate of TRUS-guided prostate biopsies by conducting a prospective randomized study comparing the Vienna nomogram with a 10-core biopsy protocol.
This research study will access the using of a radiotracer, 18F-choline PET/CT and MRI for prostate cancer in patients undergoing diagnostic prostate biopsy. Patients receive MRI guided prostate biopsies and metabolomic profiling of prostate biopsy tissues.
In April 2011, the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved the oral drug abiraterone acetate (Zytiga ®) in combination with prednisone (a steroid) to treat patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer who have received prior docetaxel (chemotherapy). In December 2012, the FDA approved Zytiga ® in combination with prednisone to treat patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer who have not received prior chemotherapy. Degarelix (Firmagon ®), a testosterone lowering agent given as a monthly injection, is FDA approved for the treatment of patients with advanced prostate cancer. The purpose of this study is to evaluate abiraterone acetate and prednisone in combination with degarelix as a possible treatment for PSA recurrent prostate cancer as compared to abiraterone acetate alone and degarelix alone. This will be the first time these drugs will be used together.
The goal of this clinical research study is to learn if treatment with standard systemic therapy (androgen deprivation therapy or bilateral orchiectomy) in combination with surgery or radiation therapy is more effective at controlling prostate cancer than standard systemic therapy alone. The safety of this treatment combination will also be studied.
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and clinical effects of alternating androgen deprivation therapy with testosterone therapy in men with recurrent prostate cancer as first line hormonal therapy, to assess the effect of alternating therapy on quality of life and metabolic changes associated with androgen-deprivation therapy.
The main objectives of this trial are: 1. To assess the activity and safety of pantoprazole and docetaxel (with prednisone) in men with metastatic CRPC who have not received prior chemotherapy. 2. To evaluate archival prostate cancer tissue of men included in the clinical trial for evidence of autophagy using IHC for LC3B, ATG5, p62 as well as ERG. 3. To evaluate pharmacokinetic interactions of pantoprazole with docetaxel.
One month degarelix/comparator treatment for prostate cancer in Chinese population
The purpose of this exploratory data collection is to strengthen our knowledge of some of the rarer distresses following surgical removal of the prostate. In general these are: - Side effects related to sexuality, including: - Altered perception of orgasm, - Orgasm associated pain, - Penile shortening and deformity. - Side effects related to urinary incontinence. - Urinary tract infection after operation. - Influence of distress on sexual quality of life. - Influence of distress on the patient´s sex drive. In addition information on a range of demographics and information on the patient´s erectile function will be collected.
The aim of this study is to evaluate efficacy and safety of Dovitinib(TKI258) in patients with castration resistant prostate cancer after failure of docetaxel-based chemotherapy. Further correlative study for metabolic response using PET image and change in serum fibroblast growth factor 23(FGF23) will be conducted.
