National Health Service (NHS) England has commissioned The Royal Marsden Hospital NHS Foundation Trust to run a novel mobile clinical outreach service called 'Man Van' with the aim of enabling male patients' easy access to care at the site of their work and in their communities. The initial focus of this new standard of care clinic is to access workplaces with large manual workforces where large scale working from home is not possible. These will include logistics firms and bus companies. These companies employ large numbers of black and minority ethnic men who also have poorer outcomes with a range of other diseases, including Coronavirus disease (COVID)-19. The novel clinical service will collaborate with Unite (and other unions) as well as employers in order to reach our target groups effectively. There is also the opportunity to target higher risk groups e.g. Afro Caribbean communities whose rates of prostate cancer are 1 in 41 as well as occupational higher risk categories. The Man Van has the potential to swing the balance of evidence in favour of Prostate-Specific Antigen (PSA) screening, with a targeted screening program directed at high-risk groups including ethnic minorities and manual workers. Reasons for poorer outcomes amongst these groups are multi-factorial and complex. Levels of education are often a factor which can impact the understanding of the disease and how to seek assistance. Distrust of medical organisations has also been cited as a factor. The aim of the Man Van mobile outreach service is to enable men access to a specific men's health service - focusing on general health and wellbeing (including BMI assessment, blood pressure, blood sugar/diabetes checks etc) and a prostate check for those who raise concerns. This will include a PSA test where relevant. This will be the core data gathered from the project. Patients will receive PSA results in the 'Man Van' by a clinical nurse specialist with patients with raised PSA levels being referred into the standard rapid referral cancer pathways. Similar considerations will apply to men with haematuria detected on dip stick testing or who present with a testicular mass or penile lesion (both rare but important). The clinical data generated from each routine health screening appointment will be analysed to determine the effectiveness of the Man Van mobile outreach model in identifying prostate and other male cancers and other co-morbidities much earlier than if patients had waited to present to their General Practitioner (GP) or other healthcare provider. Patients who receive an early diagnosis of clinically significant prostate cancer will have access to early curative treatments, which are typically less invasive and shorter in timescales. Similar interventions have shown large scale success in particular with breast and cervical cancer. The NHS sees many patients accessing cancer care at a late stage. Reducing this trend is a key objective of the NHS Long Term Plan. The COVID-19 pandemic has further exacerbated health inequalities and mobile clinics can potentially be a model for alleviating this. To enable patients access to medical treatment earlier there is a need to make the 'seeking advice on men's health and prostate issues' less daunting, more normal and easily accessible. The 'Man Van' has the ability to do just that and it is anticipated that the findings of this research, using the data generated from each patient's routine health screening, will demonstrate that a mobile outreach model is more effective in identifying cancers at an earlier stage than 'traditional' diagnostic pathways. We also hope to evaluate the Man Van with a qualitative study looking at the patient perspectives from those who utilise the Man Van. The reasons for high risk in prostate cancer are heavily linked to genetics. This is an issue as there is less recruitment of high risk groups to studies. We hope to gather genetic data from a higher proportion of genetically susceptible men via the Man Van, which can be used in future to further genetic knowledge of prostate cancer.
The goal of this study type: observational study (prospective study) is to study prostate cancer occurrence and recurrence, to specifically identify and localize tumor foci at the molecular level at an early stage, to evaluate the prognosis of patients, and to accurately stage not only intermediate- and high-risk prostate cancer patients with a primary diagnosis, but also detect recurrent foci in patients with biochemical recurrence, to restage those who have developed metastases, to assess tumor load, and to ultimately assist in determining the personalized treatment plans. The main question it aims to answer is whether 68Ga-PSMA PET/CT (PET/MR) examination is beneficial for assessing the - Accurate staging of patients with intermediate- and high-risk prostate cancer at first diagnosis; - Detecting recurrent lesions in patients with recurrent tumors for re-staging; - Assessment of tumor load; - Assessment of patient prognosis. Participants will sign an informed consent form, undergo 68Ga-PSMA PET/CT (PET/MR) before surgery or biopsy, and have regular follow-up after obtaining pathological results of surgical resection or puncture biopsy, 6 weeks after surgery or biopsy, and then every 3 months; the follow-up will include: blood PSA, whole-body bone imaging, etc.
Prostate cancer is the most common cancer diagnosed in men in the USA with 268,490 cases diagnosed in 2022 constituting 27% of male cancers and 34,500 deaths (11%) occurred in same year.1 Prostate cancer is a very heterogeneous disease that has different presentations, molecular and pathological features, stages, and disease biology. The treatment options are dependent on the disease stage, its features, and the patient's condition and preferences. The disease outcome also varies significantly due to the previous heterogeneity of the features in addition to other social determinants of health. Therefore, it is critical to obtain real-world data that reflects the actual patterns of prostate cancer presentation, work up, management, and outcome. Real World Prostate Cancer Registry (RWPCR) aims at compiling real world data from patients presented with prostate cancer in the tristate area. The data collection will be prospective and longitudinal including patients' demographics and disease characteristics, work up, management, and outcome.
The purpose of this clinical trial is to compare new reconstruction and anastomosis in robot-assisted radical laparoscopic resection It will also understand the possibility of exploring new reconstruction in completely solving patients' postoperative urinary incontinence The main questions it aims to answer are: Is there a significant improvement in urinary control in patients with new reconstruction compared with patients with anastomosis? The researchers compared the new reconstruction with anastomosis in robot-assisted laparoscopic radical resection to see if the new reconstruction improved urinary incontinence after operation. Participants will: The intervention group adopted the new reconstruction proposed by our team; End-to-end anastomosis was performed in non-intervention group.
In this prospective, multi-center cohort study, the tolerability and quality of life during ultrahypofractionated radiotherapy (RT) of early stage prostate cancer is surveyed at several institutions in Germany. Radiotherapy is delivered with by an online-adaptive RT device (Varian Ethos), which is able to correct daily variations in anatomy and to adjust the irradiation plan accordingly. A digital patient questionnaire is used to asses quality of life longitudinally. Quality of life (QoL) and toxicity profiles will be correlated with planning parameters and compared to retrospective cohorts of patients who underwent normofractionated RT or moderately hypofractionated RT, respectively.
Substudy 01A is part of a larger research study that is testing experimental treatments for metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). The larger study is the umbrella study (U01). The goal of substudy 01A is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of MK-5684-based treatment combinations, or as a single agent, in participants with mCRPC. This substudy will have two phases: a safety lead-in phase and an efficacy phase. The safety lead-in phase will be used to evaluate the safety and tolerability, and to establish a recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) for the MK-5684-based treatment combinations. There will be no hypothesis testing in this study.
To qualitatively determine the imaging performance of PET-CT imaging subsystem of the RefleXion X1 System Device in patients undergoing standard-of-care (SOC) [68Ga]-PSMA-11 PET-CT using Illuccix on the same day.
To evaluate: The radiographic progression-free survival (rPFS) of metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (mHSPC) patients treated with androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) + second-generation antiandrogens±chemotherapy combined with cytoreductive prostatectomy (CRP)
The purpose of this study is to see whether combining 2141-V11 with various standard treatments is an effective treatment approach for prostate cancer. 2141-V11 works by activating the immune system to find and kill cancer cells. Researchers will look at whether this treatment approach is able to completely get rid of cancer in participants, and they will check for the presence of minimal residual disease (MRD) in participants. MRD is a small number of cancer cells that can be detected in the body after treatment.
