Filter by:This is a randomized, open-label, Parallel, active-controlled phase I study. A total of 20-24 patients with locally advanced or metastatic prostate cancer will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive a single injection of LY01022 10.8mg or Zoladex® 10.8mg. Blood samples will be collected to evaluate PK and PD profiles, and safety evaluation will be conducted as required in the protocol.
The primary aim of this large prospective study consists of exploring the correlation among Volumetric and Radiomic parameters extracted from staging PSMA PET/CT Imaging versus conventional baseline clinical biochemical data, conventional imaging and the aggressiveness of the tumor based on the post-surgical-Gleason Score (GS) in patients with intermediate/high risk prostate cancer (PCa). Secondarily, Volumetric and Radiomic features extracted from the same PET images will be compared with the amount of the Circulating Tumor Cells (CTCs), with the expression of specific receptors on CTCs surface, Possible mutations encoding androgen receptors (AR) on CTCs surface, and with PSMA density on primary tumor cells provided by the Immunohistochemistry method (IHC) applied on post-surgical histological samples. According to PET images, Volumes of interest (VOI) encompassing the whole prostate with foci of PSMA uptake suspected for PCa will be drawn to extract semiquantitative and radiomic PET features. The association between PSMA PET radiomics and CTCs molecular and genomic panel at staging could potentially lead to a more personalized and more effective therapeutic chances.
The study is randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind clinical trial that aims to check whether tranexamic acid's use in videolaparoscopic radical prostatectomy intraoperative is effective in decrease serum hemoglobin drop and the amount of blood's transfusion.
This project aims to evaluate the role of fully hybrid PET/MRI with 18F-PSMA and multiparametric MR imaging (mpMRI) as one-stop approach for the diagnosis of clinically significant prostate cancer (csPCa). This prospective PET/MRI clinical evaluation will ideally reduce the number of false negative findings, while at the same time, allowing also to reduce the number of unnecessary prostate biopsies in patients with low-risk, clinically indolent PCa. The demonstration that, compared to mpMRI alone, the use of PET/MRI with 18F-PSMA has a superior diagnostic accuracy in detecting men with csPCa will strongly support the inclusion of 18F-PSMA as pre-biopsy triage test, in addition to mpMRI in daily clinical practice.
The overriding objectives of this study are: 1. Primary outcomes: 1. To confirm that administration of oral acetate increases the proportion of A. muciniphilia in the stool samples of patients with metastatic, castration-sensitive prostate cancer compared to placebo. 2. To confirm tolerability and assess for side effects of delayed oral acetate supplementation. 2. Secondary outcomes: 1. To determine if increased counts of A. muciniphilia correlate with improved metabolic parameters and improved bone health.
ARES is a multicenter, single-arm, phase 2 trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ADT in combination with apalutamide as an adjuvant regimen for patients with high risk of recurrence after radical prostatectomy.
This study relates to men with hypogonadism, a condition describing a deficiency of androgens such as testosterone. Deficiency of these hormones occurs in men due to testicular (primary) or hypothalamic-pituitary (secondary) problems or may be observed in men undergoing androgen deprivation therapy for prostate cancer. Testosterone plays an important role in male sexual development and health, but also plays a key role in metabolism and energy balance. Men with testosterone deficiency have higher rates of metabolic dysfunction. This results in conditions such as obesity, nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease. Studies have confirmed that treating testosterone deficiency with testosterone can reduce the risk of some of these adverse metabolic outcomes, however cardiovascular mortality remains higher than the general population. We know that testosterone deficiency therefore causes metabolic dysfunction. However, research to date has not established the precise mechanisms behind this. In men with hypogonadism there is a loss of skeletal muscle bulk and function. Skeletal muscle is the site of many critical metabolic pathways; therefore it is likely that testosterone deficiency particularly impacts metabolic function at this site. Men with testosterone deficiency also have excess fat tissue, this can result in increased conversion of circulating hormones to a type of hormone which further suppresses production of testosterone. The mechanism of metabolic dysfunction in men with hypogonadism is therefore multifactorial. The purpose of this study is to dissect the complex mechanisms linking obesity, androgens and metabolic function in men. Firstly, we will carry out a series of detailed metabolic studies in men with testosterone deficiency, compared to healthy age- and BMI-matched men. Secondly, we will perform repeat metabolic assessment of hypogonadal men 6 months after replacement of testosterone in order to understand the impact of androgen replacement on metabolism. Lastly, we will perform the same detailed metabolic assessment in men with prostate cancer before and after introduction of a drug which causes testosterone deficiency for therapeutic purposes.
To predict prostate cancer and its prognosis by ultrasound radiomics in ultrasound fusion prostate targeted biopsy.
The goal of this research study is to conduct an open pilot of a behavioral change intervention called PROstate Cancer Wearables, Exercise, and Structured Supports (PROWESS) for integrating health behavior change tools and to increase exercise, reduce side effects of androgen deprivation therapy (ADT), and improve quality of life in Black and Hispanic/Latino men with prostate cancer. The name of the intervention used in this research study is: PROWESS (behavioral change intervention)
The primary objective of GERONTE STUDY is to evaluate the effectiveness of the GERONTE, ICT-based, integrated care pathway to improve patient 6-month quality of life, in France. Study design is a stepped wedge randomised controlled trial. Clusters will be participating hospitals, comprising eight investigating sites in total (Figure 2). This is a stepped wedge of cross-over type. Patients included at each "step" are different individuals. The first "step" is a reference measurement where none of the clusters will implement the intervention. The investigating sites will be randomly drawn to determine the order in which they will implement the intervention, by "steps" of two months. The primary endpoint is the Quality of Life assessed by the EORTC QLQ-C30 (version 3.0) questionnaire at 6 months after GERONTE implementation. It has 3 sub-scores that will be analysed independently, with alpha risk adjustment.
