Filter by:The purpose of this survey is designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of long-term use (96 weeks) of leuprorelin acetate SR 11.25 mg injection kit (Leuplin SR 11.25 mg Injection Kit) in prostate cancer patients in daily medical practice.
This pilot clinical trial studies magnetic resonance (MRI)-guided focal stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) in treating patients with low- or intermediate-risk localized prostate cancer. Stereotactic radiosurgery may be able to send x-rays directly to the tumor and cause less damage to normal tissue.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of JNJ-56021927 in Japanese participants with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC- prostate cancer that is resistant to medical [for example. hormonal] or surgical treatments).
The role of this study is to focus on the potential role of abiraterone acetate in treatment-naive patients newly diagnosed with high-risk localised prostate cancer requiring combined hormonal therapy and radiotherapy.
This randomized phase II trial studies how well sipuleucel-T with or without tasquinimod works in treating patients with hormone-resistant prostate cancer that has spread to other parts of the body. Vaccines made from a person's tumor cells and white blood cells may help the body build an effective immune response to kill tumor cells. Tasquinimod may stop the growth of prostate cancer by blocking the growth of new blood vessels necessary for tumor growth. It is not yet known whether sipuleucel-T is more effective with or without tasquinimod in treating prostate cancer.
Although the number of recommendations against systematic screening of prostate cancer, 70% of patients still request testing because they overestimate the benefits and are unaware of the limitations. The investigators aim is to assess the impact of a short printed decision aid presenting benefits and limits of screening, on patients' intent to undergo prostate cancer screening.
Prostate cancer is considered the fourth most common malignancy cancer in America. However, in Colombia the incidence is higher, and it is considered the second cause of death among men for malignance diseases. In the framework of clinical localized prostate cancer there is a controversy regarding the best predictors of risk and the best treatment options. The actual literature is discussing the possibility of underestimate the disease and actual tools are not sufficient for proper characterization. Is in this context that extended pelvic lymphadenectomy emerges as a stratification tool in prostate cancer that defines the real commitment of the disease. The investigators need to know the characteristics that the disease has on the investigators community so the investigators can generate appropriate therapeutic approach. Thus, the present prospective observational-descriptive multicenter study, want to determine in three referral centers in Bogotá Colombia , the frequency of pelvic node involvement in patients with localized clinical prostate cancer from the stratification achieved by pelvic lymphadenectomy extended.
This is a multicentre, non-interventional, prospective study to be carried out in representative medical institutions in order to get the information on administration of postoperative and post-radiation adjuvant androgen deprivation therapy (including "go" / "no go" decision, regimens, dosages and duration) used in locally advanced prostate cancer patients with high and very high risk of recurrence in Russia.
The purpose of this study is to determine the incidence of prostate cancer in men with the BRCa2 gene mutation as an independent indicator for prostate cancer screening.
Background: - Some men with prostate cancer have their prostate glands removed. The cancer can still come back. Researchers want to know if receiving a vaccine before prostate removal surgery can lead to less recurrence. Objective: - To see if a vaccine and booster shots given to men with prostate cancer before surgery changes the immune cells in the prostate gland. Eligibility: - Men age 18 and older who have prostate cancer that has not spread, and who want to have their prostate glands removed as treatment. Design: - Participants will be screened by their regular cancer care. They may have a small piece of prostate removed. - Participants must practice effective birth control before and during the study treatment and for 1 month after the last vaccine booster. - Participants will have a medical history, physical exam, and blood and liver tests. They will be asked about how they perform daily activities. - Participants will have a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan of the prostate. The scanner is a metal cylinder in a strong magnetic field. Participants will lie on a table that slides in and out of the scanner. - Participants will be injected with the vaccine, most likely in the leg. They will be injected with the vaccine booster 3 times over several weeks. - At each booster visit, participants will have a medical history, physical exam, and blood and liver tests. - Participants will have another MRI. Then they will have surgery to remove their prostate. - Participants will have 2 follow-up visits during the year after surgery. They will have a medical history, physical exam, and blood test.
