Active clinical trials for "Prostatic Neoplasms"

This phase II trial studies the side how well hyperpolarized carbon C 13 pyruvate (HP C-13 pyruvate) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) works in monitoring patients with prostate cancer on active surveillance who have not received treatment. Diagnostic procedures, such as MRI, may help visualize HP C-13 pyruvate uptake and breakdown in tumor cells.

This study aims to institute a province-wide registry leveraging the availability of a new Positron Emission Tomography tracer, [18F]-DCFPyL and PET expertise across Ontario centers to improve our ability to characterize patterns of recurrence and personalize therapies in men with recurrent prostate cancer after primary treatment.

This pilot trial studies how well Watchful Living works in improving quality of life in participants with prostate cancer that has not spread to other parts of the body who are on active surveillance and their partners. A social support lifestyle intervention (called Watchful Living) may help African American prostate cancer participants and their partners improve their quality of life, physical activity, diet, and inflammation.

Radiation therapy is one of the standard treatments for men with prostate cancer. Moderately hypofractionated radiotherapy has been established to be equivalent to standard fractionated radiotherapy in several large randomized clinical trials, however different hypofractionated regimens have been used in these studies. The two most common hypofractionated regimens are 70 Gy in 28 fractions and 60 Gy in 20 fractions, both are considered standard of care, however it is not unknown which regimen is better in terms of effectiveness and toxicity. The aim of this randomized controlled clinical trial is to compare the two hypofractionated radiotherapy regimens using Helical Tomotherapy.

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.

Active surveillance (AS) is becoming an increasingly common treatment option for men who have been diagnosed with localised low-grade prostate cancer (PCa). Low-grade disease is commonly noted by clinicians to be clinically insignificant cancer but remains a psychological burden to many men in this cohort. There is consensus that regular review is required for men on AS so that early treatment can be undertaken if there is disease progression, and to support men living with a cancer diagnosis. Some AS protocols, including National Institute for Clinical Excellence (NICE), advocate the use of MRI as a regular part of the monitoring pathway. Unfortunately, access to MRI for AS, within the current health care environment in the UK, is limited due to increasing demand for primary diagnostic examinations, particularly in the post pandemic recovery phase. Emerging technologies in ultrasound imaging may, however, add another diagnostic tool to monitor disease for patients on AS. This proof of concept study is to evaluate whether new multi-parametric ultrasound techniques can safely reduce the number of MRIs required for effective AS. Men being investigated for PCa will be invited to undergo an ultrasound examination of their prostate, via the rectum, in addition to the diagnostic MRI undertaken as part of normal care. The findings of the ultrasound will be directly compared with the MRI and any subsequent biopsy samples taken as part of routine care. Those who then progress onto AS will be invited to undergo regular rectal prostate ultrasound examinations. These will be compared with previous imaging for signs of change. This study will also evaluate the changing role of practitioners who will be using new technologies and making decisions about disease progression. The ability to implement new techniques will be assessed. All imaging will be undertaken at Castle Hill Hospital over a 24-month period from commencement of the study.

This phase III trial determines how well the Minority Prostate Cancer (MiCaP) Research Digest works in providing information to black men about the latest prostate cancer research. MiCaP Research Digest may be an effective method to help people learn about prostate cancer.This goal of this trial is to create educational programming that helps Black men make informed decisions about their prostate healthcare since Black men are diagnosed with prostate cancer more than any other race or ethnicity.

This is an extension of an ongoing study. Preliminary results from the ongoing study indicate that the MyProstateScore 2.0 (MPS 2.0) Test is significantly improving early diagnosis of prostate cancer. This extension will allow us to ask the study participants in the ongoing study to share patient-level data for chart abstraction. The specific purpose of this study is to generate high-quality real-world data on the clinical utility of LynxDx's new MPS 2.0 test.

Purpose: This study will take prostate specific membrane antigen (PSMA) as the targeting of radionuclide labeled molecular probe to explore the diagnostic efficacy of 99mTc-P137 radioactive probe in prostate cancer. Combining with SPECT/CT to optimize the imaging, image analysis and clinical diagnosis process of 99mTc-P137 probe, the aim of the study is to provide new methods and new means for the early detection, early diagnosis, accurate tumor staging, treatment decision and prognosis judgment of malignant tumor, and will provide scientific and clinical basis for the precise diagnosis and treatment of prostate cancer. Research objectives: To investigate the clinical translational application value of 99mTc-P137 molecular probe in accurate detection of prostate cancer lesions. Research design: A prospective study design will be used in this study. Patients meeting the inclusion criteria of this study will be analyzed with 99mTc-P137 SPECT/CT imaging. To evaluate the diagnostic and prognostic value of 99mTc-P137 nuclear medicine imaging in accurate detection of prostate cancer lesions, clinical surgical specimens and pathological diagnosis will be used as the gold standard. Study the population Indications: For patients with suspected prostate cancer who plan to undergo surgical resection or puncture biopsy after various examinations, the final pathological results can be obtained.

Despite the recognized benefits of physical activity in tertiary prevention, 60-70% of prostate cancer patients are insufficiently active. Yet 150 minutes of brisk walking per week (new WHO recommendations) is associated with a 29% reduction in cancer mortality and a 57% reduction in recurrence. Increasing patients' adherence to regular physical activity appears to be a new challenge for personalized cancer care. Personalized physical activity programmes (1) at home, (2) supported by health professionals, or (3) by peers have shown the effectiveness of regular physical activity. However, these interventions last less than 6 months and do not allow for long-term sustainability of physical activity. This study proposes to combine 3 interventions, which aim to initiate and maintain regular physical activity in prostate cancer patients: 1-The realization of a personalized and realistic physical activity project via physical activity support devices (sport health centers) 2-Coaching by a peer (a patient with the same disease who has reached the WHO recommendations for physical activity), who will provide motivational follow-up 3-Support by health professionals (attending physician) through the prescription of physical activity. The feasibility of ACTI-PAIR program has been demonstrated, the investigators now wish to evaluate it effectiveness.
