Filter by:Aim: The role of surgical castration and rosuvastatin treatment on lipid profile and lipid metabolism related markers was evaluated for their prognostic significance in metastatic prostate cancer (mPC) patients. Methods: A total of 70 newly diagnosed castrated mPC patients treated with castration were recruited and divided into two groups: Group I included 30 patients and served as control (statin non-users) while group II included 40 patients treated with Rosuvastatin (20 mg/day) for 6 months and served as statin users. Prostate specific antigen (PSA), epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), Caveolin-1, lipid profile (LDL, HDL, triglycerides and cholesterol) and lipid metabolism related markers (aldoketoreductase (AKR1C4), HMGCoA reductase, ABCA1, and SLDL RP1) were measured at baseline, after 3 and 6 months. Overall survival (OS) were analyzed by Kaplan-Meier and COX regression for prognostic significance.
Systemic therapy (i.e Androgen Deprivation Therapy with Docetaxel, Enzalutamide, Apalutamide or Abiraterone Acetate) has increased overall survival in men with hormone-sensitive metastatic prostate cancer. Novel local cytoreductive treatments and metastasis directed therapy are being evaluated, these can confer additional harm, but might improve survival. We aim to elicit men's preferences for and willingness to accept trade-offs between potential improved survival and cytoreductive treatment risks using a 'discrete choice experiment'.
The proposal will explore a trial design called the cohort-multiple RCT (cmRCT) or as it has been recently coined, the Trials WithIn Cohorts (TWICS) design. This design has been used in a number of disease areas, both benign and cancer. Prostate conditions have been chosen since they are extremely common and if malignancy occurs the majority of men with the disease are regarded as living with a chronic condition due to its long natural history and in which innovative approaches, interventions, treatments or changes in management might have a significant patient benefit and impact on the NHS. It therefore fits the cmRCT design very well. Nonetheless, the lessons learned in this study will be of relevance to other disease spaces. The TWICS or cmRCT design is currently being used in elderly patients, risk of falls, depression, hip fracture, Yorkshire Health Study, scleroderma, breast cancer, colorectal cancer, bladder cancer and kidney cancer, to name a few. In total, a recent systematic review showed that there were 18 ongoing cmRCT studies with 6 in the UK. The acceptability and feasibility of the cmRCT in the prostate pathway will be tested. This is the first time this method will be tested and therefore piloted. In the first part of the study, the following will be evaluated. What is the accrual rate? What do patients and their healthcare professionals think of the cmRCT design? Is the data collected robust? What are the resource requirements of such a study?A number of novel interventions or changes in the pathway will then be tested and compared to standard care in the cohort that was recruited.
To goal of this research is to assess the ability of Gallium-68 (68Ga) Prostate-Specific Membrane Antigen-11 (PSMA-11) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) to increase diagnostic accuracy in localizing primary and metastatic lesions in patients with suspected prostate cancer and elevated Prostate Imaging Reporting and Data System (PI-RADS) scores and Prostate-Specific Antigen (PSA).
This is a multicenter phase 2b study to evaluate the efficacy and tolerability of ModraDoc006 in combination with ritonavir (denoted ModraDoc006/r) in patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer, suitable for treatment with a taxane.
The purpose of this first-in-human study is to evaluate safety and tolerability of ODM-209 and find the dose of ODM-209.
This study evaluates the diagnostic performance and safety of 18F-DCFPyL (PyL) PET/CT imaging in patients with suspected recurrence of prostate cancer who have negative or equivocal findings on conventional imaging.
18F-DCFPyL is an agent that binds to prostate specific membrane antigen (PSMA). Due to high levels of PSMA in prostate cancer, treatments targeting PSMA have been developed to deliver therapy to these specific target cells. Unfortunately when this treatment is delivered there is radiotracer uptake in the salivary glands and kidneys, not related to cancer, which causes dry mouth and causes patients to stop treatment. It is proposed that having tomato juice containing monosodium glutamate (MSG) may reduce radiotracer uptake in the salivary glands and kidneys and reduce damage to these tissues.
This feasibility study will investigate whether men with metastatic prostate cancer can take part in and progress through a home-based exercise program. This study will evaluate the effects of exercise on a range of disease and treatment-related outcomes.
Randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled, dose finding Phase 2 study comparing oral daily dosing of VERU-944 after a week of loading (daily dosing) with placebo to ameliorate the vasomotor symptoms resulting from androgen deprivation therapy in men with advanced prostate cancer
