Filter by:Multiphoton microscopy (MPM) has been shown to be able to image tissue at a cellular level. Our project will initially evaluated the ability of MPM imaging to distinguish normal bladder urothelium from atypical and malignant urothelium in the ex vivo setting. After development of sufficient criteria, we plan to develop an endoscopic bladder probe that will provide a non-invasive means to image the interior of the bladder at the cellular level, which would provide direct evidence of the presence of tumor without a biopsy. After exhibiting usefulness of MPM imaging for bladder cancer, we will look at other organs beginning with the colon.
The purpose of this study is to review cause of death in patients undergoing prostate brachytherapy at a single institution. Furthermore, we are analyzing patients undergoing androgen deprivation therapy and whether or not this contributed to cardiovascular deaths, specifically myocardial infarction.
The purpose of this clinical study is to assess the safety and tolerability of BMS-641988 once daily orally in Japanese patients with castration resistant prostate cancer
The purpose of this study is to determine the effects of CyberKnife radiosurgery in patients with early stage organ-confined prostate cancer.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of CyberKnife radiosurgery in patients with early stage organ-confined prostate cancer and to evaluate the effects of this treatment on the quality of life over time.
The primary purpose of this study is to determine whether LY2181308 in combination with docetaxel is safe and effective treatment for hormone refractory prostate cancer patients.
This is a phase 3 study to compare the clinical benefit of abiraterone acetate plus prednisone with placebo plus prednisone in patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) who have failed one or two chemotherapy regimens. At least one of the previous chemotherapies must have contained docetaxel.
This study looks at the relationship in the dose of nolvadex and the incidence of gynaecomastia and also Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) inhibition when co-administered with Casodex. The aim of the study is to assess the optimal dose of nolvadex which will reduce the breast tissue adverse effects without reducing the efficacy of Casodex.
Patients with varicocele in whon early prostate cancer will be found will undergo venographic embolization of both spermatic veins. The study hypothesis is that this procedure will induce a gradual regression of the prostate volume that may decrease prostate cancer cells. Close follow-up will ensure that necessary therapy will be provided if needed according to clinical criteria. Results in terms of prostate size PSA level and tumor size will be recorded.
The objective of MER-101-03 is to examine the effects of two different dosing regimens of MER-101 20mg tablets versus Zometa 4mg IV infusion once-monthly therapy. The effects will be monitored on a weekly basis by measuring various markers of bone metabolism. Patients to be enrolled will be those who have not received any previous bisphosphonate therapy. The study will be carried out on prostate cancer patients who are no longer on hormone therapy. Treatment in the study will be for a 2-month period.
