Active clinical trials for "Prostatic Neoplasms"

This is a two-tiered pilot study in which there will be no randomization and no placebo treatment. This study will be to perform metabolic magnetic resonance imaging on men suspected to have a prostate cancer to understand if metabolic MRI can be safely performed on this population

The primary purpose of this study is to compare the quality of life (QOL) reported by prostate cancer patients 2 years after treatment with ultra-hypofractionated post-prostatectomy radiation therapy (also known as stereotactic body radiation therapy [SBRT]) versus the self-reported QOL of those treated with moderately hypo-fractionated post-prostatectomy radiation (a current standard of care option).

To evaluate the role of 4-aminopyridine (4-AP) on the course of recovery after peripheral nerve traction and/or crush injury. This study aims to test the hypothesis that 4-aminopyridine speeds the often slow and unpredictable recovery after peripheral nerve traction and/or crush injuries.

This is a phase 2 randomized study for High risk localized prostate cancer (T3 to T4 disease and/or PSA > 20 and/or Gleason score ≥ 8) without evidence of distant and nodal metastasis. Patient will be randomized to:Arm 1 Conventional IMRT RapidArc IMRT to prostate and pelvic nodes. 76Gy to prostate, 70Gy to proximal 2/3 of seminal vesicles, and 50Gy to pelvic nodes (up to bifurcation of common iliac nodes). 38 fractions of daily treatment, Monday to Friday or Arm 2 SBRT RapidArc IMRT to prostate and pelvic nodes. 40Gy to prostate, 36.25Gy to proximal 2/3 of seminal vesicles, and 25Gy to pelvic nodes (up to bifurcation of common iliac nodes) 5 fractions of weekly treatment. Once fraction per week. All patients will be given neoadjuvant and adjuvant androgen deprivation therapy (detail as below)

A two arm, multi centric, randomized, open label, parallel, two doses pharmacodynamics study in patients with advanced prostate cancer.

A Phase II Randomized Trial of Hypofractionated Proton Therapy in Patients With A Localized Prostate Adenocarcinoma

The purpose of this study is to test if treatment with medications that reduce the male hormone level in the participant's body for a few months before surgery can shrink prostate cancer as much as possible, which might reduce the chances of the cancer coming back in the future. These treatments include a hormone injection given monthly or every three months and the study drugs, which include abiraterone acetate, prednisone, and apalutamide. These medications are being used in combination with surgery and maybe radiotherapy because studies have shown that any single approach on its own is not sufficient to control or get rid of the cancer especially if they have high risk or aggressive features. The researchers hope to learn if combining the study drugs with surgery and radiation will get rid of the cancer from participants' prostates and reduce their prostate-specific antigen (PSA) to an undetectable level.

The arm of this study is to explore the optimal dose of 12 fractions of carbon ion radiotherapy for prostate cancer in our center.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether daily treatment with SHR3680 affects the ventricular repolarization in participants with Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer (CRPC).

This is a single-arm phase II prospective trials that is recruiting 100 participants. The study population that is being investigated are patients with localized high-risk or node-positive prostate cancer. Participants will receive external beam radiotherapy as a moderately hypofractionated boost to the prostate with pelvic radiation therapy. Androgen deprivation therapy will be prescribed at the discretion of the treating physician as per standard of care.
