Filter by:This clinical trial will evaluate the safety and efficacy of [161Tb]Tb -PSMA-I&T in men with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC).
This clinical trial is to provide a minimally invasive treatment option in which the targeted prostate cancer tissue is killed by cryoablation at extremely low temperatures only in the specific area of cancer "that should be treated for saving of life"; while, leaving a portion of the normal prostate tissue that is not cancerous. It is a treatment, named by "focal therapy" for "clinically localized prostate cancer". As this new treatment is aiming to treat only specific prostatic area of cancer, it is different from the invasive conventional treatment to remove the entire prostate gland. The goal is to achieve both to control of known cancer by treating only the cancerous area and to maintain of QOL (Quality-of-life) by leaving of the other normal prostate tissue and its surrounding organs intact resulting in prevention of urinary-leakage and sexual-dysfunction as the complications.
The diagnostic pathway for suspected prostate cancer relies greatly on radiological imaging. Establishment of magnetic resonance fingerprinting (MRF) has the potential to significantly improve patient experience and outcomes. MRF is a novel and innovative approach to a long-standing challenge of recording and reconstructing MR image The aim is to conduct a clinical pilot study in which patients will be scanned using the newly refined MRF sequence in addition to the conventional scanning protocols.
This phase II trial tests whether 177-Lutetium-PSMA given before stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) works to improve cancer control rate in patients with 1-5 prostate cancer tumors that have come back after prior treatment (oligorecurrent). Radioactive drugs, such as 177-Lutetium-PSMA, may carry radiation directly to tumor cells and not harm normal cells. SBRT uses special equipment to position a patient and deliver radiation to tumors with high precision. This method may kill tumor cells with fewer doses over a shorter period and cause less damage to normal tissue. Giving 177-Lutetium-PSMA before SBRT may make the SBRT more effective.
This clinical trial examines RefleXion Medical Radiotherapy System (RMRS) imaging to the standard of care (SOC) [18F]-DCFPyL positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET-CT) imaging in patients with prostate cancer. PET is an established imaging technique that utilizes small amounts of radioactivity attached to very minimal amounts of a tracer, [18F]-DCFPyL, that binds to prostate specific membrane antigen (PSMA) on tumor cells. These PSMA tumor cells can then be identified on PET imaging. CT utilizes x-rays that traverse body from the outside. CT images provide an exact outline of organs and potential inflammatory tissue where it occurs in patient's body. The RMRS is a imaging-therapy combination system that can plan for and deliver radiation therapy as well perform [18F]-DCFPyL PET-CT imaging. Comparing the imaging from the standard of care [18F]-DCFPyL-PET-CT with the [18F]-DCFPyL imaging from RMRS may help improve the quality of the imaging captured and determine if imaging can be done on the RMRS at the same time as planning for radiation therapy, which would reduce the number of scans needed to plan for radiation for prostate cancer.
The aim of the study is to determine if triptorelin formulated for use every 6 months (given twice during the study) is effective and safe for when given by injection under the skin for the treatment of adult males with cancer in the prostate.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Olaparib compared with standard of care (Enzalutamide or Abiraterone Acetate) in Chinese men with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer who have failed prior treatment with a new hormonal agent and have BRCA1/2 mutations.
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.
The purpose of this study is to see if a telemedicine group doctor's appointment is a practical (feasible) and acceptable method for following people with prostate cancer being managed with active surveillance when compared with the usual approach of individual telemedicine visits, which involve the participant visiting a doctor on their own. The researchers will compare the telemedicine group and individual visits by measuring on participant satisfaction and quality of life in each type of visit. Telemedicine is the use of secure video technology on a desktop computer, laptop, smartphone, or tablet to provide and receive healthcare from a distance.
The aim of this study is to determine the safety and efficacy of 64Cu-SAR-BBN and determine the ability of 64Cu-SAR-BBN Positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) to correctly detect the recurrence of prostate cancer in participants with PSMA-negative biochemical recurrence of prostate cancer following definitive therapy.
