Active clinical trials for "Prostatic Neoplasms"

This is a single-arm prospective non-randomized, non-blinded trial to assess the safety of neoadjuvant stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) before surgery in high risk prostate cancer patients. Radiation therapy will be delivered over 5 treatment sessions for approximately 1.5 weeks total.

Abiraterone acetate (AA) has shown a favourable impact in overall survival, administered with prednisone to decrease the adverse event related to CYP171A suppression. Our hypothesis is that the change of prednisone to dexamethasone in CRPC patients that progress biochemically to AA + prednisone can improve the number and the length of the responses, and also improve tolerance to treatment, decreasing the adverse events associated to a moderate dosage of steroids used chronically.

This is a research study to test an investigational drug (Not FDA approved), Apalutamide given in combination with Leuprolide acetate (FDA approved) in men diagnosed with high-risk prostate cancer who have already selected to have surgery to remove their prostate gland as part of their treatment plan. The main purpose of this study is to determine how tumors make androgens (male hormones), which makes these tumors more aggressive and resistant to hormonal therapy and how a short period of treatment with Apalutamide and leuprolide acetate prior to surgery can affect the production of these hormones in normal and malignant prostate tissue.

The study aims to evaluate the stability and efficacy after administration of [177Lu]Ludotadipep in patients with metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC), with dose-escalation applied to determine the appropriate dose.

Aim: The role of surgical castration and rosuvastatin treatment on lipid profile and lipid metabolism related markers was evaluated for their prognostic significance in metastatic prostate cancer (mPC) patients. Methods: A total of 70 newly diagnosed castrated mPC patients treated with castration were recruited and divided into two groups: Group I included 30 patients and served as control (statin non-users) while group II included 40 patients treated with Rosuvastatin (20 mg/day) for 6 months and served as statin users. Prostate specific antigen (PSA), epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), Caveolin-1, lipid profile (LDL, HDL, triglycerides and cholesterol) and lipid metabolism related markers (aldoketoreductase (AKR1C4), HMGCoA reductase, ABCA1, and SLDL RP1) were measured at baseline, after 3 and 6 months. Overall survival (OS) were analyzed by Kaplan-Meier and COX regression for prognostic significance.

To compare the pharmacokinetics and safety between BR9004 and BR9004-1 in healthy male subjects after a single-dose administration while fasting.

Through gene sequencing of the patient's tissue, to figure out the genomic characteristics of patients with advanced disease and guide the treatment of patients

ONCO-FIRE proposes to build a novel hyper-architecture and a common data model (CDM) for oncology, as well as a rich, modular toolset enabling significantly increased interoperability, exploitability, use and reuse of diverse, multi-modal health data available in electronic Health Records (EHR) and cancer big data repositories to the benefit of health professionals, healthcare providers and researchers; this will eventually lead to more efficient and cost-effective health care procedures and workflows that support improved care delivery to cancer patients encompassing support for cancer early prediction, diagnosis, and follow-up. The applicability, usefulness and usability of the proposed hyper-architecture, CDM and toolset for oncology and the high exploitability of health data will be demonstrated in diverse data exploitation scenarios related to breast and prostate cancer involving a number of Virtual Assistants (VAs) and advanced services offering to health care professionals (HCPs), hospital administration/healthcare providers and researchers data-driven decision-support and easy navigation across large amounts of cancer-related information. Through the above mentioned outcomes and the (meta)data interoperability achieved, ONCO-FIRE contributes to the exploitation of large volumes, highly heterogeneous (meta)data in EHR and data repositories including imaging data, structured data (e.g. demographics, laboratory, pathological data), as well as diverse formats of unstructured clinical reports and notes (e.g. text, pdf), including (but not limited to) temporal information related to the patient care pathway and genomics data currently "hidden" in unstructured medical reports, and more. Importantly, ONCO-FIRE interconnects, following a federated approach, large, distributed cancer imaging repositories, currently used for AI tools training and validation, with patient registries and EHRs of cancer-related data and supports exploitation of relevant unstructured data through novel Natural Language Processing (NLP) tools. The ultimate goal is to establish a patient-centric, federated multi-source and interoperable data-sharing ecosystem, where healthcare providers, clinical experts, citizens and researchers contribute, access and reuse multimodal health data, thereby making a significant contribution to the creation of the European Health Data Space.

The purpose of this study is to provide access to Ga-68-PSMA-11 PET for evaluation of male veterans with newly diagnosed or biochemically recurrent prostate cancer. All patients will receive conventional imaging (MRI, CT, and/or a molecular imaging bone scan) as well as Ga-68-PSMA-11 PET in order to evaluate the utility of diagnostic testing in patients with positive PSA status, a comparison of results from conventional imaging and PSMA PET imagining will be performed.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether a 16-week, home-based, virtually supervised exercise program will slow cancer progression of prostate cancer among Black men with prostate cancer undergoing active surveillance. The name of the study intervention involved in this study is: Aerobic high-intensity interval training (HIIT) (training exercise intervention)
