Filter by:This phase II trial studies how well time-restricted eating works in reducing side effects of radiation or chemoradiation side effects when compared to nutritional counseling among patients with prostate, cervical, and rectal cancers. Time-restricted eating, also called short term fasting or intermittent fasting, is an eating plan that alternates between not eating food (fasting) and non-fasting periods. Nutritional counseling involves being asked to follow a healthy, balanced diet that includes instructions on what kinds of food are better tolerated during radiation and chemoradiation therapy. This trial may help researchers determine if certain diets may improve the anti-cancer effects of radiation therapy and reduce the side-effects of this treatment. If successful, these diets may be integrated into the future treatment of prostate, cervical, and rectal cancers.
The goal of this pilot study is to assess the perceived usability of a smartphone application called WINGS targeting psychosocial distress and well-being in prostate cancer patients and their social network. The main questions it aims to answer are: - How do prostate cancer patients and their social network rate the usability of the technology-based social-support intervention program smartphone application? - Do symptoms of prostate cancer patients improve after using the WINGS smartphone application? - Does the burden of prostate cancer patients social network decrease after using the WINGS smartphone application? Participants will be asked to use the WINGS smartphone application over the period of eight to twelve weeks and fill in questionnaires before, during, and after this time.
This is a first-in-human, dose escalation and efficacy study of [212Pb]Pb-ADVC001 in participants with PSMA-positive metastatic Castration Resistant Prostate Cancer (mCRPC).
The aim of this prospective phase II study is to evaluate the toxicity of salvage partial (focal) prostate brachytherapy in patients after prior radiotherapy (standard teleradiotherapy with / without brachytherapy, hypofractionated, self-reactive HDR / LDR brachytherapy) with local recurrence on the part of the prostate gland.
The ELASTO-US study is a single center feasibility study to evaluate 3 methods of analyzing real-time ultrasound images acquired during High Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) treatment in patients with localized prostate cancer. Real-time ultrasound acquisitions will be programmed at specific times and recorded during HIFU treatment. At the end of the treatment, these recordings will be exported in an anonymized way and analyzed according to the 3 different methods. A multiparametric-MRI will be performed in addition to the usual practice within 5 days after the treatment in order to control the area necroticised by the treatment. The mp-MRI will be the reference method against which the results obtained by the 3 methods of ultrasound image analysis will be compared. Techniques capable of providing safe and robust information on the progress of HIFU-generated necrosis would greatly limit the risks of overtreatment that can lead to side effects such as urinary incontinence as well as the risks of under treatment that can lead to cancer recurrence.
A [18]F-PSMA-1007 PET/CT or PET/MRI scan are nuclear medicine tests used to create pictures of the whole body that may show where cells that express Prostate-Specific Membrane Antigen (PSMA) are found. PSMA is a transmembrane protein that is overexpressed in the majority of prostate cancers. PSMA imaging utilizes this overexpression, by binding on the transmembrane receptor and internalization in the cancer cells. The internalized isotope can then be imaged with the use of a PET/CT or PET/MRI scanner and show where cancer cells may be present in the body. This imaging modality has been shown to be superior to conventional imaging, such as bone scan and CT, in the detection of prostate cancer tumors. The purpose of this study is to: 1) assess the clinical impact of a [18]F-PSMA-1007 scan on patient management plans; 2) assess the diagnostic effectiveness of a [18]F-PSMA-1007 scan in participants with known or suspected metastatic prostate cancer, as compared to standard of care CT chest, abdomen, pelvis and bone scan; 3) evaluate the safety of [18]F-PSMA-1007; and 4) assess potential correlations of PSMA level of uptake in certain tumors with cancer biologic markers such as PSA and Gleason score.
Medico-Economic Randomized Trial comparing Focal HIFU Treatment to Radical Prostatectomy in Patients with Favorable Intermediate Risk Prostate Cancer
Doctors leading this study hope to learn about a software that researchers at the University of Chicago have developed to help analyze radiographic images (different techniques for taking images that allow doctors to visualize the body's internal structures) of the prostate. Participation in this research will last about 12 months. There is a one-time MRI and 1-2 biopsies and then the investigator would like to follow the participant's progress.
This is a prospective registry study to evaluate the diagnostic utility of [18F]-PSMA-1007 (PSMA-PET/CT) to stage patients with high-risk prostate cancer, localize sites of biochemical recurrence of prostate cancer, and restage patients with advanced prostate cancer before onset of new therapy.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the usefulness of PET/MRI with an investigational radioactive drug, 18F-rhPSMA-7.3, and MRI contrast in evaluating patients with prostate cancer eligible for active surveillance. This study is for imaging purposes only and is not a treatment study.
