Filter by:This study will evaluate approximately 3 months of treatment with the drug olaparib in patients with prostate cancer. A capsule formulation of olaparib (tradename Lynparza™) is approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of women with advanced BRCA-mutated ovarian cancer. Olaparib is an investigational drug in prostate cancer. A tablet formulation of olaparib is being tested in this study. It is a new formulation which is more convenient for patients than the approved capsule formulation because fewer tablets of olaparib need to be taken daily than with capsules. The purpose of the study is to evaluate whether olaparib can reduce prostate cancer with defects in DNA repair genes when olaparib is given for approximately 3 months before surgery.
Primary Objectives: - To characterize the safety and tolerability of isatuximab in combination with REGN2810 in participants with metastatic, castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) who were naïve to anti-programmed cell death-1 (PD-1)/programmed cell death-ligand 1 (PD-L1)-containing therapy, or non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who progressed on anti-PD-1/PD-L1-containing therapy, and to confirm the recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D). - To assess the response rate of isatuximab in combination with REGN2810 in participants with either mCRPC who were anti-PD-1/PD-L1 therapy naive, or NSCLC who progressed on anti-PD-1/PD-L1 therapy, or of isatuximab as single agent in participants with mCRPC. Secondary Objectives: - To evaluate the safety of the combination of isatuximab with REGN2810 or isatuximab monotherapy. - To evaluate the immunogenicity of isatuximab and REGN2810. - To characterize the pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of isatuximab single agent or in combination with REGN2810, and to characterize the PK of REGN2810 in combination with isatuximab. - To assess overall efficacy of isatuximab in combination with REGN2810 or as a single agent.
The purpose of this study is to investigate a transperineal biopsy approach (outside of the rectum) using MRI targeting to facilitate better access to the whole prostate gland and provide limited risk of infectious complications after biopsy.
Previous research into metabolic and hypoxic markers has found evidence of preclinical impact of exercise on prostate tumor blood flow and oxygenation in rodents . As radiotherapy is a frequently used and effective therapy for and that sufficient oxygenation is decisive to the effect of radiotherapy, an underlying hypothesis that aerobic exercise might improve treatment efficacy of radiotherapy in prostate cancer is put forward. This study has a potential challenging intervention, but a potential very high gain as it includes active patient participation to significantly improve outcome of radical radiotherapy.
The purpose of this study is to test the effectiveness (how well the drug works), safety, and tolerability of the investigational drug combination of ARRx (also known as AZD5312) plus enzalutamide in patients with metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer.
This is a long-term prospective registry study to determine whether Prolaris testing in patients with favorable intermediate risk prostate cancer influences physician management decisions toward conservative treatment in patients with Prolaris low-risk scores without negatively impacting patient oncologic outcomes, thereby sparing low-risk patients from unnecessary treatments and associated side-effects.
A Laboratory Study to Evaluate Urine and Blood Biomarkers That Can Distinguish Between the Presence or Absence of Aggressive Prostate Cancer
This study is a clinical trial to determine whether a 12-week group therapy intervention for patients undergoing Active Surveillance for Prostate Cancer can relieve disease-related anxiety and improve quality of life and delay elective treatment of prostate cancer. The goal of the study is to further our understanding of anxiety in men who have been diagnosed with prostate cancer and are undergoing Active Surveillance. Men who have elected Active Surveillance for their management of prostate cancer are eligible to participate in this study. After signing informed consent, all participants will complete two brief questionnaires (The Memorial Anxiety Scale for Prostate Cancer [MAX-PC] and the General Anxiety and Depression Scale 7 [GAD-7] to measure their anxiety levels. If the participant scores above a certain number, they will be asked to participate in the study. Patients will be randomly assigned to either a control group, who will receive no treatment, but continue to follow up with their urologist to manage their prostate cancer as usual, or the treatment group. The treatment group will receive 12 one-hour group therapy sessions that will take place once a week for 12 weeks with a licensed psychologist free of charge. They will be instructed to follow up with their urologist as previously determined for their prostate cancer management. Patients in both groups will be monitored for anxiety completing three questionnaires, the MAX-PC and GAD-7 which they previously completed, and the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy - Prostate (FACT-P) during the 4th and 12th weeks of therapy. If patients require further therapy beyond the group treatment sessions, the investigators may refer them to a psychologist or psychiatrist for further treatment.
This study investigates neoadjuvant TAK-700 orteronel for 6 months prior to prostatectomy. The three year biochemical free survival is the primary endpoint. There are a number of 2nd endpoints such as pathological complete response rate, the need for adjuvant radiation therapy, use of post operative radiotherapy an the rate of positive margins at surgery. Translational endpoints include measuring tumoural and plasma testosterone as well as other androgens. Patients with untreated high risk and intermediate risk operable prostate cancer will be treated with TAK-700 (plus LHRH agonist) for 24 weeks prior to planned prostatectomy.
This is a pilot study of implement multi-parametric MR imaging for organ delineation and tumor response assessment of prostate cancer patients being treated with radiation therapy.
