Filter by:The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy of BAT and carboplatin in men with metastatic castrate-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC).
The aim of this study is to investigate the clinical value of [18F]aluminum fluoride-1,4,7-triazacyclononane-1,4,7-triacetic acid-neurotensin(18F-AlF-NOTA-neurotensin)positron emission tomography / computed tomography (PET/CT) in patients with prostate cancer (PCa).
This study aims to use the new molecular probe 18F-PSMA for the diagnosis,staging ,recurrence monitoring and evaluation of the prostate cancer.By compared with the conventional imaging methods (whole body bone scintigraphy and MRI) and molecular imaging methods (11C-choline PET/CT),we hope to find the advantages of 18F-PSMA PET/CT in the diagnosis and metastases of prostate cancer, and lay the foundation for the further clinical transformation.
PERSEUS1 is an open-label, single arm, phase II trial evaluating the efficacy of Pembrolizumab in metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) patients (Part A) with a biomarker enrichment stage (Part B) if efficacy is shown in part A.
It is estimated that one-third of the more than 7 million deaths from cancer worldwide are attributable to potentially modifiable risk factors, with 374,000 deaths preventable through diet modification alone. Diet supplementation for the prevention or treatment of cancer is attractive, as implementation is relatively easy, even in populations with reduced incomes and resources. Grape extracts or active components isolated from grapes have received attention as chemopreventive or therapeutic agents based upon their anti-proliferative, anti-inflammatory, and anti-oxidant properties. Evidence from preclinical trials also suggests that muscadine grape products may decrease systemic inflammation. This study builds upon promising preclinical and clinical evidence to determine if the addition muscadine grape extract (MGE) to androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) improves symptoms in men with prostate cancer.
This study will enroll 60 patients previously enrolled to MCC#18523, "A Validation Study on the Impact of Decipher® Testing on Treatment Recommendations in African-American and Non-African American Men with Prostate Cancer: (VANDAAM)" that had high risk Decipher test results (Decipher score >0.45). Patients with a high genomic classifier (GC) score at diagnosis will be approached for formal consenting for PSMA-PET imaging at 2 years post treatment.
The purpose of this study is collect observational data regarding patterns of care and outcomes of focal therapies for prostate cancer, including but not limited to: high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU), cryotherapy, focal laser ablation, irreversible electroporation, photodynamic therapy, and brachytherapy.
Prostate cancer screening with PSA is plagued by high rate of unnecessary prostate biopsies, especially in the "gray zone" (4.00ng/ml e 10.99ng/ml). We introduce a new circulating-tumor-cell (CTC) biomarker for detection of prostate cancer in patients in the PSA "gray zone" level, with the clinically verified potential to substantially decrease the number of unnecessary prostate biopsies.
This pilot research trial utilizes the collection of blood in studying metabolites in patients with prostate cancer. Metabolites are the small molecule products of cellular metabolism that are produced naturally in all living cells. Collecting blood in order to study metabolites may help doctors monitor and treat prostate cancer more effectively.
Prostate cancer is the most common male cancer in global, which accounts for 19% of the total and poses great hazards to male health. Unfavorable factors including prostatic specific antigen (PSA) >20 ng/ml, Gleason score >8, and T3/4 are significantly associated with biological recurrence, metastatic progression and poor survival in prostate cancer. In clinical T4(cT4) prostate cancer with bladder invasion patients, symptoms of hematuria, urinary urgency, bladder outlet and ureteral obstruction, and pelvic pain led to a poor quality of life. Radical prostatectomy is crucial for the multimodal treatment of prostate cancer, but limited proof demonstrated enough advantages of the surgery in T4 tumor with bladder invasion. Radical prostatectomy could hardly meet both demands of local tumor control and urinary function. Treatment trends suggest that patients with T4 prostate cancer be treated with radiotherapy combined with androgen deprivation therapy (ADT). However, surgery enables a full pathological assessment of the tumor characteristics and thus a better estimation of the risk of recurrence. Cystoprostatectomy offers an option of surgical treatment for T4 prostate cancer with bladder invasion,which can well remove the bladder and urethra, decrease the risk of positive surgical margins and avoid urination complications. There is no consensus regarding optimal treatment of T4 prostate cancer and no evidence of oncological outcomes of cystoprostatectomy from clinical trials. A randomized clinical trial comparing two multimodal treatment regimens of cystoprostatectomy and radiotherapy for T4 prostate cancer with bladder invasion is therefore warranted.
