Filter by:To assess the safety of treating men with oligometastatic prostate cancer with the following therapy: (1st) Systemic chemo-hormonal therapy with up to 6-months (~24 weeks) of adjuvant androgen deprivation and up to 6 cycles of chemotherapy, (2nd) definitive local tumor control with adjuvant radiation therapy, and (3rd) consolidative stereotactic radiation to oligometastatic lesions. The men will receive a total of 2 years of androgen deprivation. Androgen blockade will be the same throughout the course of treatment.
The investigational protocol describes a small case series designed to compare three imaging modalities for use in visualizing prostate cancer. The three modalities to be tested are: transrectal micro-ultrasound , and conventional resolution transrectal ultrasound (LR-TRUS) (both as implemented on ExactVu, the multi-frequency novel micro-ultrasound system under investigation), and multi-parametric MRI (mpMRI). These modalities will be used for guiding systematic (standard, random, extended sextant) plus image-guided targeted prostate biopsies among men with known cancer and an indication for prostate biopsy. In the case of mpMRI, biopsy will be performed under micro-ultrasound guidance with the radiology report used for targeting.
The objective of this study was to evaluate the safety profile of ELIGARD® in ethnic Asian prostate cancer patients.
This study will assess and compare the diagnostic performances and image quality of two WB 3D T1-weighted MR imaging sequences for bone and node staging in patients with prostate cancer : the FSE sequence and a gradient echo (GE) sequence. The latter sequence's main feature is its acquisition time of approximately 1.5 minutes, compared to 18 min for the FSE sequence, reducing the exam's acquisition time, patient discomfort and increasing machine availability.
The purpose of this research study is investigate a new and validated urine test which predicts the likelihood of high grade prostate cancer on an initial prostate biopsy The current protocol has two objectives; one is to further assess and evaluate the performance of the urine test in men already scheduled for initial prostate needle biopsy (cohort (group) 1) and two, to evaluate how the results of the urine test influences the decision process for determining whether to perform a prostate biopsy (cohort (group) 2).
The main purpose of this study to determine the safety of an experimental medicine called 131I-MIP-1095. 131I-MIP-1095 is an investigational drug, meaning it has not been approved by the U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA).
The purpose of the study is to compare the safety and tolerability of sequential atezolizumab followed by sipuleucel-T (Arm 1) vs. sipuleucel-T followed by atezolizumab (Arm 2) in patients who have asymptomatic or minimally symptomatic metastatic CRPC, not previously treated with docetaxel or cabazitaxel.
The purpose of this study is to determine if trans-rectal microwave ablation of the index tumor of patients with low-risk prostate cancer is sufficiently precise and safe, using MRI-transrectal ultrasound image registration.
Prostate Cancer Survivorship 360º is a collaboration-based initiative involving prostate cancer (PC) and survivorship researchers/clinicians from three Canadian prostate centers with the goal of identifying and tracking unmet supportive care needs of patients with localized PC and responding to these needs through survivorship care. The current randomized control trail (RCT) will focus on the development and evaluation of a facilitated electronic Prostate Cancer Survivorship Care Plan (PC-SCP). The aims of this project are: 1) to develop an appropriate and tailored SCP and transition care delivery process; and 2) to conduct an RCT to evaluate whether a personalized PC SCP intervention is more effective than usual care (UC) on patient activation (primary outcome) and access to services, self-Management support, satisfaction with information, HRQoL and cancer worry (secondary outcomes). Data from a multi-site prospective database- Prostate Cancer Survivorship Information System (PC360-IS) will be used to electronically populate the survivorship care plans. Overall, this proposal represents initial steps in uniting the country in sharing programmatic resources, data, expertise, and enthusiasm to transform survivorship care for men with PC and their families.
The purpose of the study, is to determine the percentage of patients for whom the initial LHRH prescription has been renewed
