Filter by:This is a Phase 1, single-site, interventional clinical trial evaluating the safety and efficacy of IS-002 intravenous (IV) injection for fluorescent identification and delineation of the positive cancer margins and metastatic lymph nodes during prostatectomy surgery using the da Vinci® X/Xi Surgical System with Firefly® Fluorescent Imaging.
This is a multicenter, randomized, open-label, active comparator-controlled phase Ⅲ trial to compare efficacy and safety of Goserelin Acetate Sustained-Release Microspheres for Injection (LY01005) and ZOLADEX® in patients with prostate cancer.
The objectives of this study are to assess clinical practice variation in prostate cancer diagnosis and treatment among urologists and how ProMark™ affects clinical practice decision-making. The study uses a randomized controlled study design of urologists. Urologists will be randomly assigned to a control and intervention arm. - Pre-intervention/baseline assessment: will be done using prostate cancer CPV® vignettes and a physician questionnaire to both control and intervention arms. - Intervention: 2-4 weeks after baseline introduce ProMark™ to the intervention group of urologists using a protocol to be determined by Metamark and QURE. - Post-intervention: 6 weeks post-intervention, a second round of prostate cancer CPV® vignettes will be administered to both control and intervention arms. The ProMark™ test will be available to "order" for all physicians taking the vignettes. The Clinical Performance and Value Vignettes (CPV®) used in this study simulate a clinical encounter for a man presenting with prostate cancer. Each urologist will provide responses to open-ended questions regarding clinical care they would provide for that patient. These responses are scored in five domains (taking a medical history, performing a physical examination, ordering appropriate tests, making a diagnosis and prescribing treatment against explicit evidence and criteria as determined by the literature and medical associations. Results are presented as percentage correct. Each case will take approximately 15-20 minutes to complete. All case responses will be completed online and kept confidential. The study hypotheses are: 1. Clinical practice, specifically decisions around prostate cancer treatment post-diagnosis, will vary widely among urologists. This variation in practice will demonstrate the need a new diagnostic, such as ProMark™, would fulfill. 2. ProMark™ will improve clinical decision making of urologists for prostate cancer patients with a Gleason Score of 3+3=6 and 3+4=7 by improving the diagnosis and/or treatment CPV® domain score post-intervention versus baseline comparing intervention and control groups The investigators will estimate the effect of ProMark™ on the primary outcomes comparing treatment and control groups using a difference-in-difference analysis comparing differences between groups before and after intervention. The investigators will control for potential confounders, such as age, gender, and other physician and practice characteristics.
Patients surviving with advanced prostate cancer frequently encounter time points in their disease course that require choosing among multiple options regarding systemic therapy. Interventions to improve shared decision-making through patient support measures such as question listing, and audio recording and summarizing of consultations have been shown to improve patient-reported measures of decision making quality, e.g. decreased decisional conflict and regret. However, the feasibility of consultation recording and summarizing with mobile health (mHealth) technology on patient-owned smartphones is unknown. The investigators will conduct a single-arm trial to determine feasibility and acceptability of a clinician-prompted, patient administered smartphone audio recording application and a service to summarize the recordings (Patient Support Corps or PSC), in improving decision-making quality among patients with chemotherapy-naive, progressive, metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). This trial will inform the design and conduct of a larger trial evaluating broader scale implementation of this intervention.
Main Study: The purpose of main study is to assess if the combination of apalutamide and androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) in participants with high-risk localized prostate cancer improves the biochemical recurrence (BCR) free rate. Sub-study: The purpose of the sub-study is to assess if the co administration of apalutamide and relugolix is able to maintain castrate levels of testosterone.
Since 13 November 2013, XOFIGO has been authorised on the European zone for the treatment of patients with prostate cancer, in the phase of resistance to castration, with symptomatic bone metastases. bone metastases frequently give rise to "bone events" that include spinal cord compressions and pathological fractures requiring surgery or external radiotherapy. Bone metastases are an important cause of death, disability, quality of life degradation and increase the cost of treatment. Xofigo is indicated in patients with bone metastases symptomatic of hormone-resistant prostate cancer and without known visceral metastases.
In this observational study researchers want to gather more information about the characteristics of patients treated with Radium-223 (Xofigo) who had survived over a long period of time prostate cancer that had spread to other places in the body and keeps growing even when the amount of testosterone in the body is reduced to very low levels (metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer, mCRPC). In addition researchers want to identify the factors which may contribute to survival over a long period of time in those patients. Radium-223 (Ra-223) is an alpha particle-emitting radioactive agent approved for the treatment of men with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC).
The study aims to evaluate the stability and efficacy after administration of [177Lu]Ludotadipep in patients with metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC), with dose-escalation applied to determine the appropriate dose.
This is a multicentre randomized controlled trial in comparison of the perineal nerve block approach between the periprostatic block in the pain control in men undergo a transperineal prostate biopsy.
Prostate cancer (PCa) is among the most widespread in the male population and represents 19% of all cancers diagnosed from the age of fifty, in Italy. Androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) and Radiotherapy (RT) are used for increase survival. However, both therapies are associated with significant side effects, such as fatigue, loss of muscle mass and strength, cognitive decline that together lead to an increase risk of accidental falls and fractures. Guidelines for cancer survivors recommend Physical Exercise (PE) as a strategy to reduce several side effects of therapies. However, most people living with cancer do not meet current exercise recommendations. Indeed, an effective PE program requires the application of long-term, moderate to high intensity activity. Thus it may be difficult to implement this type of recommendation in patient with PCa. Therefore, this study aims to develop an experimental PE intervention testing their feasibility and safety and the patients' satisfaction, aimed at improving the health conditions of the patients with PCa receiving ADT and RT. Furthermore, long-term falls and fracture events will be monitored.
