Filter by:Investigators central hypothesis is that it is possible to create libraries of "consistent" Knowledge-Based plan-models derived from large Institutional experiences. These libraries can be used to guide automated RT planning and serve as tools to assist centers for plan quality assurance (QA) and plan prediction. Quantifying Inter-institute variability of RT planning and building libraries of interchangeable and validated multi-Institutional KB plan prediction models is expected to impact on the quality of planning at the national level. The project has the potential of facilitating the introduction of AI approaches in plan optimization, thus reducing intra and inter-Institute planning variability. Improving plan quality is expected to translate into better outcome after RT in terms of local control and, even more, of side effects and Quality of life. Positive impact is also expected in patient selection for advanced techniques, in plan audit and plan optimization in clinical trials, in technology comparison and cost-benefit analyses as well as in the RT educational field.
The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to compare intraoperative pain score, Morphine consumption during 6 and 12 hour after surgery, and postoperative complications between SA and SCB groups in metastatic prostate cancer patient. The main question it aims to answer are: • Is there a difference in the level of pain during bilateral orchiectomy between spinal anesthesia and spermatic cord block? Participants will undergo bilateral orchidectomy. They will be randomly assigned to two groups: the group receiving spinal anesthesia and the group receiving spermatic cord block If there is a comparison group: Researchers will compare intraoperative pain score, Morphine consumption during 6 and 12 hour after surgery, and postoperative complications in both groups of patients.
The study should evaluate the biological distribution of [99mTc]Tc-BQ0413 in patients with prostate cancer. The primary objective are: 1. To assess the distribution of [99mTc]Tc- BQ0413 in normal tissues and tumors at different time intervals. 2. To evaluate dosimetry of [99mTc]Tc- BQ0413. 3. To study the safety and tolerability of the drug [99mTc]Tc- BQ0413 after a single injection in a diagnostic dosage. The secondary objective are: 1. To compare the obtained [99mTc]Tc- BQ0413 SPECT imaging results with the data of CT and/or MRI and/or ultrasound examination and immunohistochemical (IHC) studies in prostate cancer patients.
The purpose is to assess and describe the oncological and functional outcomes following the introduction of curative targeted focal brachytherapy of prostate cancer in Denmark. Men with a single MRI-identifiable prostate cancer index-tumour who fulfil inclusion criteria and are candidates for curative treatment. Eligible men will undergo curative intended targeted focal brachytherapy for treatment of histologically confirmed prostate cancer. The intervention will include Low- (LDR) or High (HDR) dose rate targeted focal brachytherapy of prostate cancer. Collection of data on safety, morbidity, side effects and quality of life. Collection of clinical data on treatment efficacy, progression, and mortality. All patients will have a follow up of 10-years for oncological outcome, 5-years for acute- and late toxicity-, and 2-years for functional outcomes, respectively. The follow up will include clinical data, MRI, confirmatory biopsies, and questionnaires at specific fixed time points pre-and post-operatively after 1-3 days, 4-weeks, 3-, 6--, 9-, 12-, 18-, and 24-months followed by every 6 months up to 5-yr and then every year up to 10-yr follow-up. Anticipated number of patients is 50 and regular analysis and reporting will be performed continuously. The first short-term analysis will be after 18-months of follow-up after confirmatory MRI and biopsies, and the final reporting will be after 10-years follow-up in 2035.
Men with localized prostate cancer (PCa) are often treated with surgery, a treatment that is associated with high rates of side effects such as erectile dysfunction (ED) and urinary incontinence (UI) which impact quality of life. Yoga may improve control of UI and improve ED by bringing awareness to and strengthening the pelvic floor musculature. The randomized controlled pilot study is to assess the feasibility of an innovative hybrid (in-person and virtual) twice-weekly yoga program that includes a prehabilitation component and to obtain preliminary data that will help assess its potential effectiveness in alleviating PCa treatment symptom burden (primarily ED and UI). The long-term goal is to develop a scalable and sustainable yoga program that helps cancer survivors manage their treatment side effects.
The goal of this interventional non-inferiority trial is to assess the accuracy of different real-time motion management radiotherapy techniques. The main question the study aims to answer are: - What are the target margins for radiotherapy with motion management that are not inferior to target margin without motion management - What are the dosimetric and geometrical accuracy to patient for the motion management techniques. Participants will answer QoL questionary, and the accuracy of treatment will be assessed from treatment data.
Determine the impact of a laparoscopic-guided transversus abdominis plane (TAP) block timing (at initiation or conclusion of procedure) on the postoperative pain experience in patients following robot assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (RALP).
The purpose of the study is to quantify the concordance of MPS results between first-catch urine samples collected post-DRE and those collected without a DRE.
The PROMOD study is an international multicenter retrospective Project. The aim is to create a comprehensive database that will include multiple heterogeneous cohorts in order to explore inter-center differences in the accuracy of Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) in the diagnosis of prostate cancer and to define optimal strategies for the selection of men at risk of clinically significant prostate cancer who might benefit from biopsies.
This clinical trial studies the feasibility of simulating forest therapy using humidified wood or fragrant oils, in improving immune cells, like natural killer cells, number and activity, and their downstream proteins, perforin and granulysin in patients with stage I-III breast or prostate cancer who completed chemo- and/or radiation therapy. The knowledge gained from this study may help cancer patients who have compromised immune systems and who also cannot participate in outdoor activities like exercise or forest walks.
