Filter by:This feasibility study is investigating the application of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and transperineal ultrasound (TPUS) to visualise potential sites of relapse and surrounding normal tissue in patient having post-operative prostate cancer radiotherapy. Structure visualisation on MRI and TPUS will be compared to current standard computer tomography (CT) and cone-beam computer tomography (CBCT) imaging.
STereotactic sAlvage Radiotherapy for macroscopic prostate bed Recurrence after prostatectomy (STARR trial) is a prospective observational study aimed to assess outcome after Stereotactic salvage radiotherapy (SSRT) for macroscopic prostate bed recurrence after radical prostatectomy.
To learn if using cryotherapy to treat only the part of the prostate known to contain cancer is effective in controlling prostate cancer
The aim of this study is to evaluate and optimize protocols for the isolation and analysis of analytes in urine (cell-free nucleic acids, extracellular vesicles and proteins). The following factors will be evaluated (1) volumetric collection with Colli-Pee®, a collection device developed by Novosanis for standardized collection of urine, and (2) stabilization methods. This is a prospective study in which urine samples will be collected from healthy volunteers, urine samples and a blood sample from pregnant women and cancer patients with solid tumors with emphasis on breast- and prostate cancer. The participants will be asked to provide a urine sample collected with the Colli-Pee® device and fill out an online questionnaire to collect usability data. Thereafter, the urine sample will be aliquoted to be used in different pilot studies for the protocol optimization. For the pilot study where the effect of volume will be assessed, participants will be requested to collect multiple samples with different Colli-Pee® variants and fill out questionnaires accordingly.
The goal of the proposed project is to test the implementation strategy, in terms of feasibility and utility, of an online Tai Chi intervention as a prehabilitation model to prepare prostate cancer patients and their caregivers for radical prostatectomy (RP). The investigators' hypothesis is that, by using an online teaching module, the proposed prehabilitation model is feasible on the prostate cancer care pathway in a simple, efficient, and minimally disruptive manner. In addition, participating in the Tai Chi intervention will improve patient anxiety leading up to the RP and improve physical function as well as post-operative side-effects associated with RP. Our primary objective is to test the feasibility of the implementation strategy from multi-stakeholder perspectives. The investigators will use mixed-methods to assess the barriers and facilitators related to implementing the online Tai Chi intervention from multi-stakeholder perspectives guided by the Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research. Our secondary objective is to examine the effect of the Tai Chi intervention on patient outcomes at peri-RP and post-RP. The investigators will quantitatively test the effect of the intervention to reduce peri- and post-RP anxiety and improve peri- and post-RP physical function and general disease specific patient-reported outcomes. An exploratory objective is to explore the effect of the Tai Chi intervention on surgical outcomes. The study team will quantitatively describe the difference in post-RP surgical outcomes between the intervention and control groups.
This study is to investigate, in a larger cohort of consecutive men, the proportion of abnormal MRI prostate in different phi ranges, and the cancer detected in Chinese men with abnormal MRI. This study aims to evaluate whether MRI prostate can be omitted in men with lower suspicion of prostate cancer.
This study is designed to evaluate the presence and numbers of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) and cancer related gene expression levels in subjects with localized high-risk prostate cancer (HRLPC) and from subjects with non-metastatic disease experiencing biochemical recurrence and castration-resistance (BCRLPC and NMCRPC groups, respectively) who are about to undergo next generation imaging (NGI, such as Axumin® or PSMA PETCT). The investigators will also evaluate subjects with localized indolent prostate cancer who are on active surveillance (AS) as a control population. The CTC and gene expression results will be evaluated for association with disease state and progression and survival.
This is a multicenter, correlative study to existing Lutetium based prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA)-targeted radioligand therapy (RLT) trials and uses.
Stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) has emerged as an effective and safe treatment for low and intermediate-risk prostate cancer(PCa). However, there is no study that has investigated the effectiveness and safety of SBRT with pelvic radiation and gross target volume(GTV) boost for high-risk prostate cancer patients yet. The investigators designed a phase II clinical study of SBRT with pelvic radiation and GTV boost based on mpMRI in patients with high-risk prostate cancer.
In this study, it is aimed to compare the lesion location, lesion size, local and distant metastases detection rates of Ga68 PSMA PET and Multiparametric Prostate MR imaging tests used in staging in patients diagnosed with prostate cancer. The pathologies of the patients who were decided to undergo radical prostatectomy as a treatment will also be compared with the staging tests.
