Filter by:This study evaluate the addition of metformin to standard of care in locally advanced and metastatic prostate cancer, half the patient will receive metformin in combination with standard treatment, and the other half will receive the standard of care only
An improved diagnosis of bone metastases in prostate cancer patients can have a significant impact on treatment strategy and probably survival as well. The primary purpose of the project is to determine the diagnostic accuracy of bone SPECT-CT, choline-PET-CT, PSMA-PET-CT, NaF-PET-CT and Whole-body MRI in the diagnosis of bone metastases in prostate cancer patients.
Collect blood samples and associated clinical data prior to, during, and post radiation treatment.
Patients with primary diagnosed metastatic prostate cancer are randomly divided into two groups. One group receive standard of care ADT continually. Another group receive ADT plus prostate cryotherapy. Patients are followed up until their death or withdraw from this study due to other reasons. The primary endpoint of this study is prostate cancer Progression-Free Survival. The secondary endpoint is overall survival, prostate cancer specific survival and health-related quality of life.
RADICAL PC1 is a prospective cohort study of men with a new diagnosis of prostate cancer. RADICAL PC2 is a randomized, controlled trial of a systematic approach to modifying cardiovascular and lifestyle risk factors in men with a new diagnosis of prostate cancer.
The primary purpose of this trial is to determine whether dose reduction of enzalutamide in patients with grade 3 fatigue and/or cognition change will lead to an improvement in symptoms while maintaining active drug levels. Patients within 3 months of starting enzalutamide will be assessed by their oncologist as being potentially eligible for dose reduction due to the onset of moderate to severe fatigue and/or cognition change, which is assessed as being due to enzalutamide
Rationale: The current limitations in prostate cancer diagnostics, due to lack of accuracy of the available techniques, lead to over- and undertreatment for a significant fraction of patients with prostate cancer. Multiparametric ultrasound (mpUS), a new imaging modality combining different ultrasound parameters, heralds the potential for an accurate imaging-based diagnostic approach accessible to the community at large but formal validation of mpUS against final pathology results are still lacking. Objective: To validate mpUS as imaging modality for detection and localization of prostate cancer by direct correlation with histopathology of radical prostatectomy specimens
As prostate cancer progresses into castration-resistant stage from initial hormone-sensitive status, the biological behavior of tumor cells that dissociated from primary lesions changed. Considered a "liquid biopsy," these circulating tumor cells (CTCs) can show how a patient's cancer responded to treatments. The purpose of this study is to determine whether sequentially analyzing the expression of molecular markers in high volume circulating tumor cells in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer patients can predict the therapeutic effects and outcomes of these patients.
Many prostate cancer are slow or non progressive forms that would never impair quality or quantity of like of life if undetected. For this localized prostate cancer, the recommendation is an active surveillance, however often experienced by the patient as a lack of care. Thus the introduction of new potent androgen receptor inhibitor raise the question of the benefit of early hormonal therapy in localized prostate cancers. The aim of this study is to assess whether treatment with an oral androgen receptor inhibitor could influence the progression of localized prostate cancer and delay the time to local treatment initiation.
