Filter by:177Lu PSMA 617 is a new type of therapy which is designed to deliver high doses of radiation directly to prostate cancer sites in the body. The purpose of this study is to find out whether 177Lu PSMA 617can slow the growth of prostate cancer compared to standard chemotherapy treatment
Several drugs are available for metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer such as chemotherapy (docetaxel, cabazitaxel) and novel hormonal agents (abiraterone, enzalutamide), in France. The oncologist has to choose between those two type of treatment, without any biological predictor of efficacy for his patient. It is always difficult to choose knowing that 30 to 50% of patients won't benefit from the treatment chosen. It shows why resistant mechanisms to treatment need to be elucidated. MicroRNA (miR) are short RNA, implicated in messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) regulation. Evidence is emerging that miR is implicated in prostate cancer response to treatment. It would be interesting to determine if a miR profile can predict treatment response to chemotherapy and/or to novel hormonal agents.
The miR Scientific Sentinel™ Prostate Cancer Classifier Platform (Sentinel™ PCC4 Assay) is a new molecular assay that interrogates 442 small non-coding RNAs extracted from urinary exosomes and provides urologists an early, very precise indication of disease status in men presenting with suspicion of prostate cancer. The assay classifies the disease status as having no molecular evidence of prostate cancer (NMEPC) or molecular evidence of low-, intermediate- or high-risk of aggressive, potentially lethal prostate cancer. The primary objective of this study is to assess the clarity of explanation of the biological background and clinical impact of the Sentinel™ PCC4 Assay, and the comfort level of urologists with the clinical data and report form, including the ease of understanding of results, and the potential use in clinical management of prostate cancer. Men being seen by urologists in the course of their normal practice, presenting with suspicion of prostate cancer (based on DRE and/or elevated Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA)) and scheduled for core-needle biopsy will be asked to consent to the clinical study and provide one or more 50 mL sample of non-DRE urine along with relevant anonymized clinical data with the study team. The urine samples will be shipped to miR Scientific laboratories in Rensselaer NY, for exosomal sncRNA extraction and interrogation. The molecular status of the participant will be reported as a Sentinel™ PCC4 Risk Level. The second primary objective of this study is to establish the performance characteristics of the Sentinel™ PCC4 Assay in the Puerto Rican population for identifying men with NMEPC, and men with evidence of high-risk prostate cancer. Participants will receive the standard of care (SOC), including measurement of PSA, DRE and TRUS-guided systematic or MRI-guided targeted biopsy. Based on the histopathology report of the core-needle biopsy, read by pathologists associated with local institution, participants with no positive cores will be designated "cancer-free"; otherwise patients with cancer in one or more cores will have the clinical data associated with the SOC collected (including the Gleason grade group, tumor staging, PSA, race and CAPRA risk assessment score). The CAPRA score will be compared to the molecular classification provided by the Sentinel™ PCC4 Assay.
Phase 1, first-in-human, open label study of CAR macrophages in HER2 overexpressing solid tumors.
This is a single-arm, open-label study using pacritinib for patients with histologically confirmed prostate adenocarcinoma, status post definitive treatment and biochemical recurrence.
This study is evaluating whether adding stereotactic radiotherapy (a new, more focused type of radiotherapy) to treat all the tumours that are present will improve outcomes or not compared to drugs alone for patients who are negative on conventional imaging and positive on PSMA PET scan
To study the radioactive uptake of [68Ga]P137 in the lesion sites of PCa patients and evaluate the ability of [68Ga]P137 to detect PSMA overexpression in PCa patients (especially those with recurrent or advanced PCa).
This is a multi-center, open-label, phase II, single-arm trial evaluating combination of darolutamide and high testosterone doses - extreme bipolar androgen therapy (ExBAT) - in patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC).
The aim is to investigate the impact of prostate and colorectal cancer on mitochondrial quantity and quality along with muscle mass and function and whether this can be modified through the use of a home-based short-term exercise training program. The investigators aim to recruit participants awaiting curative surgery for colorectal and prostate cancer and to assess the variation in baseline mitochondrial activity between them. Participants from both cancer types will then carry out a 4 week home exercise program, this will be randomly allocated to either resistance-based or high-intensity interval training based. Participants will then be re-assessed on the day of their planned surgical procedure to assess the changes effected by the training program. The investigators hypothesize that there will be variation in mitochondrial activity linked to muscle mass across the two cancer types and that home-based exercise programs have the ability to improve mitochondrial activity along with muscle mass.
Through the conduct of a Phase III randomized controlled trial, investigators plan to: 1) determine if PSMA PET/CT guided intensification of radiotherapy or surgery improves cancer outcomes compared to conventional imaging-guided therapy in patients at risk of advanced disease, 2) evaluate its impact on toxicity and quality of life, and 3) measure the cost-effectiveness of the PSMA PET/CT guided approach. Participants with high-risk prostate cancer planned for curative-intent standard-of-care radiotherapy or surgery, or with biochemical failure after radical prostatectomy planned for salvage radiotherapy will be enrolled over 3 years (n=776). Those randomized to the investigational arm will have PSMA PET/CT prior to therapy. Based on the imaging results, treating physicians will intensify radiotherapy or surgery unless widely metastatic disease is found, in which case systemic therapy will be intensified.
