Filter by:The actual follow-up of patients undergoing definite radiotherapy for prostate cancer includes regular measurements of prostate specific antigen (PSA). Successful radiotherapy is critically dependent on local control of cancer; however, PSA takes 2-3 years to reach a nadir after therapy. We aim at collecting blood/urine after prostate massage before, and after radiotherapy in order to define new markers predicting local control earlier and more precisely than PSA.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the combination of Darolutamide with Radium-223 or placebo and the effects on radiological progression-free survival for patients with Metastatic Castration-Sensitive Prostrate Cancer (mCSPC) The main questions it aims to answer are: - Radiological progression-free survival (rPFS) in mCSPC - Overall Survival (OS) - Symptomatic skeletal event-free survival (SSE-FS) - Initiation of subsequent antineoplastic therapy - Safety Participants will have visits at baseline, treatment is once a month for up to 6 months, and long term follow up will continue until the participant dies, withdraws consent, and/or study is terminated.
The purpose of this research is to determine if using human placental membrane (also called an allograft) helps to improve recovery time for erectile function and bladder control after having robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) surgery.
This is a multicenter, Phase II randomized biomarker-based therapeutic study in metastatic prostate cancer experiencing prostate specific antigen (PSA) only progression (without visceral, bone or lymph node progression) while on abiraterone therapy.
REFIT-MSS is a non-randomized, multicenter, open-label, multi-cohort, 2-stage, phase II trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of regorafenib in combination with tislelizumab (referred as Rego-Tisle) in adult patients with select advance, previously treated, Mismatch Repair-Proficient/Microsatellite (pMMR/MSS) stable solid cancers. The multi-cohort design will allow for the examination of 8 separate cohorts of different cancers to determine whether further examination may be warranted in the individual indications.
For men with prostate cancer that involves the nearby lymph nodes (N1) standard treatment varies. Many men undergo radical prostatectomy (total removal of the prostate) along with the removal of nearby lymph nodes. Other men may opt for androgen deprivation therapy (ADT, a therapy that blocks testosterone) using the two drugs leuprolide and abiraterone - with or without radiation. This research is being done to investigate whether the use of leuprolide and abiraterone, when given in combination with a drug that blocks a molecule that senses oxygen needs by cancer cells, belzutifan, can kill cancer cells in the body prior in men who are planning on having the prostate surgically removed.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety of combining Actinium- J591 with radiation therapy or with androgen deprivation therapy.
This study is an open-label, single-arm, pilot, perioperative study of EZH2 inhibition in patients undergoing Radical Prostatectomy (RP). The EZH2 inhibition is intended to increase the sensitivity of the underlying tumor to the patient's immune system. Given the absence of data in this setting, we propose to pilot this experience with 4 weeks of tazemetostat at doses known to be clinically safe and effective at inducing clinical effects via inhibition of EZH2 as established for follicular lymphoma and epithelioid sarcoma: 800 mg twice daily with or without food. Prior to tazemetostat, blood will be collected (4 tubes) for immune cells, Circulating Tumor Cells, and plasma. This will be repeated at the time of RP. RP tissues will be collected. Additionally, patients will have a week lead-in to wear a FitBit Charge 5TM device (or similar model) to continuously monitor physical activity from baseline up until end of study. The start of the week lead-in will be considered the baseline visit. Subjects will also be asked to continue wearing the device until end of study and option to continue for up to 2 years after end of study in follow-up.
The aim of this study is to investigate and possibly validate urinary biomarkers for prostate cancer. During this study the focus will be on aberrations of selected genes as prognostic or predictive value has been shown for these genes in tissue, CTC or blood derived cfDNA. Proteins will be explored in urine as well. This is a prospective study in which urine samples will be collected from healthy volunteers and urine samples and a blood sample from cancer patients with prostate cancer. The participants will be asked to provide a urine sample collected with the ColliPee® device and fill out an online questionnaire to collect usability data. Thereafter, the urine sample will be aliquoted to be used in the study to investigate the different urinary analytes.
Background: Prostate cancer does not trigger a strong immune response in the body. Hormone therapy, to reduce levels of testosterone in the body, can be helpful to treat some prostate cancers. However, castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) keeps growing even when the testosterone is reduced to a very low level. Men with metastatic CRPC survive an average of only 3 years. More effective treatments are needed. Objective: To test whether an immunotherapy drug (N-803), alone or in combination with other drugs, can help treat CRPC. Eligibility: Males aged 18 or older with CRPC. Prior treatment with testosterone-lowering therapy is required. Design: Participants will be screened. They will have blood and urine tests. They will have a CT scan of the chest, abdomen, and pelvis. They will continue to receive hormone therapy for prostate cancer. Participants will come to the NIH clinic once a week for the first 4 weeks. Then they will come once every 2 weeks. Visits will last up to 8 hours. The study will continue up to 3 years. All participants will receive N-803 once every 2 weeks. The drug is injected just under the skin with a small needle. Some participants will receive N-803 plus another drug (brachyury vaccine). This drug is also injected under the skin with a small needle. Some participants will receive N-803 plus a different drug (bintrafusp alfa) once every 2 weeks. This drug is given through a tube attached to a needle placed in a vein in the arm. Some participants may receive all 3 drugs. Participants will have imaging scans every 12 weeks.
