Filter by:This clinical trial will examine a novel combination of anti-OX40 to induce proliferation of memory and effector T cells in conjunction with cyclophosphamide (CTX) and radiation to induce tumor antigen release with the overall goal of promoting an immune response against prostate cancer.
The objective of this registry is to collect data on patient demographics, medical history, change in prostate, bone and overall health of the patients receiving androgen ablation treatment using Eligard. Data collected through this national registry program provides an opportunity to increase knowledge of efficacy and safety of the long term treatment with Eligard, provide a platform to better identify patient segments for the therapy with Eligard®. Furthermore registries are the only tools to accurately capture rare adverse events.
This study will evaluate the feasibility, safety, and efficacy of intradermal vaccination of prostate cancer patients with alpha-type-1-polarized dendritic cells (DC1) loaded with apoptotic allogeneic tumor (LNCap). The study will target men with recurrent prostate cancer, who failed local therapy, have no measurable metastasis, but have a rising PSA with a doubling time of less than 10 months. The selection of this study group enables us to evaluate time to PSA progression, a highly relevant, clinical primary endpoint of efficacy in this two arm study. In order to facilitate infiltration of vaccination-induced T cells into tumor site(s) and to reduce tumor-specific tolerance, subjects will receive the vaccine in combination with limited androgen ablation (AA) with a LHRH analogue for 3 months. Subjects will be randomly assigned to one of two cohorts. In cohort A subjects will be first treated with limited AA alone for 3 months, and at the time of PSA relapse (PSA ≥ 1 ng/dL) will receive the DC vaccine in conjunction with AA. In cohort B, the sequence of treatment will be reversed. Efficacy will be estimated as the within-subject difference in time to PSA relapse following the combination treatment as compared to the AA alone, thus, each subject will serve as his own control. All subjects will commence the DC1-based vaccination 2 weeks prior to treatment with the LHRH analogue. Each subject will receive 1 intradermal (i.d.) dose of the vaccine at weeks 1, 5, 9, and 13 for a total of 4 doses. Additional courses of vaccination may be administered to subjects without evidence of disease progression every 3 months (±1 month) for up to 12 months depending on the number of doses originally produced and available after the 4 intended protocol doses. All doses of the vaccine will be administered intradermally (i.d.).
The purpose of this study is to see if an intervention of antioxidants(vitamin E, selenium and lycopene) can change (reduce) prostate tumor size and alter certain markers that can affect tumor growth and prostate cancer aggressiveness.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether antioxidants (vitamin E, selenium and lycopene)can change(reduce)prostate tumor size or blood flow to the prostate as determined by MRI imaging among men on Active Surveillance.
The purpose of this study is to determine the effects of CyberKnife radiosurgery in patients with early stage organ-confined prostate cancer.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of CyberKnife radiosurgery in patients with early stage organ-confined prostate cancer and to evaluate the effects of this treatment on the quality of life over time.
To determine: - Anti-tumor activity of IPI-504 in 2 groups of subjects with hormone resistant prostate cancer. - Group A - subjects who have not previously received chemotherapy - Group B - sujects who have received prior chemotherapy or could not tolerate chemotherapy. - Clinical response will be determined by PSA and radiological response
National multicentric prospective open study, comparing two current surgical methods: laparoscopic way versus open retropubic way among patients requiring a radical prostatectomy for a localised prostate cancer.
A study for the treatment of hormone refractory prostate cancer (HRPC) in patients previously treated with chemotherapy.
