The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy, tolerability, safety, pharmacokinetic (PK) and dosimetry of 177Lu-PSMA-617, in participants with progressive prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA)-positive metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) in Japan. Furthermore, the safety, PK and dosimetry of 68Ga-PSMA-11 (PSMA imaging agent) are assessed in the same study. Another purpose of this study is to provide humanistic perspective access to study treatment (68Ga-PSMA-11 and 177Lu-PSMA-617) for the eligible patients with PSMA-positive mCRPC until marketed products are available in Japan.
This phase I/II trial tests the safety, side effects, and best dose of abemaciclib and whether it works before 177Lu-PSMA-617 in treating patients with castration resistant prostate cancer that has spread to other places in the body (metastatic). Abemaciclib is in a class of medications called kinase inhibitors. It is highly selective inhibitors of cyclin-dependent kinase 4 and 6, which are proteins involved in cell differentiation and growth. It works by blocking the action of an abnormal protein that signals cancer cells to multiply. Radioligand therapy uses a small molecule (in this case 177Lu-PSMA-617), which carries a radioactive component to destroys tumor cells. When 177Lu-PSMA-617 is injected into the body, it attaches to the prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) receptor found on tumor cells. After 177Lu-PSMA-617 attaches to the PSMA receptor, its radiation component destroys the tumor cell. Giving abemaciclib before 177Lu-PSMA-617 may help 177Lu-PSMA-617 kill more tumor cells.
An extended pelvic lymph node dissection (ePLND) is the most accurate staging method to assess the presence of lymph node metastases in prostate cancer (PCa) patients. The therapeutic value, however remains unclear. Prospective randomized trials to address this void are lacking. Since in intermediate and a proportion of high risk PCa the risk of nodal metastases is generally below 25%, the vast majority of men undergo a procedure that has no oncological benefit, but is not without toxicity. Therefore, the investigators aim to compare the oncologic outcomes of intermediate- and high-risk PCa patients with an estimated risk of lymph node invasion of 5-20% undergoing a radical prostatectomy (RP) with or without an ePLND.
The present of clinically pelvic lymph node positive (cN1) represent one of the most important prognostic factors for recurrence and cancer-specific mortality of prostate cancer patients. Approximately 12% of prostate cancer patients present with cN1 disease at the time of diagnosis. Furthermore, with the advent of more sensitive advance diagnostic imaging techniques, such as PSMA PET/CT, the likelihood that pelvic nodes will be found earlier and more frequently. Unfortunately, The optimal treatment for patients with cN1 still remains unclear. Androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) is the cornerstone of prostate cancer with pelvic lymph node metastasis. Some retrospective and database studies have shown that addition of local radiotherapy (RT) to ADT improve the treatment outcome. The 2022 NCCN guideline recommend RT combined with 2 to 3 years ADT in patients with initially diagnosed cN1 prostate cancer who have a life expectancy greater than 5 years.
OVM-200 will be tested in humans for the first time in Study OVM-200-100. Up to 52 patients aged 18-75 with prostate, lung or ovarian cancer will be enrolled in the Study to find out if OVM-200 is safe to continue studying it in patients with cancer. The Study consists of 2 parts: a dose escalation part and a dose expansion part. In the dose escalation part, up to 4 increasing doses of OVM-200 will be evaluated in small groups of cancer patients to find the recommended dose for the expansion part. The recommended dose of OVM-200 will then be given to cancer patients in the dose expansion part to confirm safety and understand how effective it is against their disease and if there are any side effects. Patients who agree to participate in the Study and pass screening will receive 3 doses of OVM-200 in total at 2-week intervals as an injection under the skin. After completing treatment with OVM-200 patients will be followed up for side effects and to monitor changes in their cancer. Patients will stay on the Study for about 6 months in total during which they will have 10 hospital visits. The Study will run at around 5 sites in the UK.
It is evident that patients receiving treatment for cancer have symptoms that often are undetected. Furthermore, many survivors from cancer have ongoing poor health and well-being and long-term rehabilitation and support should not be neglected to prevent recurrence and increase survival. There are good reasons to believe that routine collection of relevant patient-reported symptoms facilitates a person-centered care where the patient is a participatory member in the team. This study aims to evaluate the effects of routine assessment of diagnose-related symptoms assisted with an app during the first year of survivor ship in patients with prostate cancer in combination with survivor ship care coached by a district nurse, in primary health care and compare it to standard care only. The hypothesis is improved symptom burden and improved quality of life.
Pilot study to determine the feasibility of providing psychosocial and cardiac rehabilitation services to address socioeconomic health disparities and improve wellbeing for black men with prostate cancer.
The aim of the study is to determine if PET-CT imaging (using contrast recommended in clinical guidelines) is superior to combined bone scan and MRI/CT of the abdomen & pelvis in detecting the increased incidence of metastasis (nodal/distant outside the pelvis) in men with prostatic carcinoma with germline BRCA mutations.
This is an observational study for patients with prostate cancer that will be treated with Androgen Deprivation Therapy. The study will help the investigators learn more about how these medications affect the heart and how those effects relate to patients' medical history and social determinants of health (such as race, gender identity, education, occupation, access to health services and economic resources). Patients on this study will have echocardiograms, blood draws, and answer questions about their symptoms and activity level. Patients will be followed on this study for up to 5 years.
