Active clinical trials for "Prostatic Neoplasms"

To assess patient preference between ODM-201 and enzalutamide by patient preference questionnaire

RATIONALE: Studying samples of blood and tumor tissue from patients with cancer in the laboratory may help doctors learn more about changes that occur in DNA and identify genes related to cancer. PURPOSE: This clinical trial is studying blood and tumor samples from men with an inherited risk of prostate cancer.

Primary: to investigate the effects of DNA repair gene polymorphisms on prostate cancer susceptibility, pathological grade, disease stage and clinical outcome Secondary: to understand the association between DNA repair gene polymorphism and prostate cancer and provided important information for screening, prevention and treatment of prostate cancer

To evaluate the cancer control for prostate cancer patients treated with focal therapy.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the feasibility of electrical stimulation of nerves responsible for erectile function to evoke penile erection after surgery to remove the prostate (prostatectomy).

The investigators provided a multicenter analysis aiming to investigate, in a clinical practice setting, the prognostic relevance of previous primary radical prostatectomy (RP) or external beam radiotherapy (RT) in terms of Overall Survival as opposed to patients with no primary treatment performed, in a cohort of patients enrolled in 223-Ra treatment for mCRPC. 223-Ra has been administered from investigators according to the current label authorization and all patients underwent 223-Ra treatment, until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Objectives: To establish if there are differences between an ultrasound-guided transrectal prostate biopsy (BPTE) and a transperineal prostatic biopsy (BPTP) with and without a multiparametric Magnetic Resonance (RMmp) in patients with clinical suspicion of prostate cancer (PC) to first prostatic biopsy in terms of: Rate of detection and diagnosis of prostate cancer. Aggressiveness of the detected tumors. Association of the marker [-2] proPSA and the prostate cancer health index (PHI) and microRNAs for the diagnosis of tumors. Adverse effects of the intervention and subjective perception of the patient: pain and degree of satisfaction, and impairment of quality of life. Cost-effectiveness analysis of the different intervention options. Study Design: Randomized, single-blind prospective clinical study to compare four schemes: RMmp + BPTE vs. BPTE 12 cylinders vs RMmp + BPTP vs BPTP 12 cylinders. Study population: Patients with clinical suspicion of prostate cancer with PSA between 3-20 ng / mL and normal or abnormal rectal examination, candidates for a first prostate biopsy. Research techniques: BPTE standard of 12 cylinders compared to RMmp previous to BPTE vs BPTP of 12 cylinders compared to BPTP with previous RMmp.

This is an observational, prospective (study following participants forward in time), multi-center (study conducted in more than 1 center) study to identify the risk factors, then develop and validate the predictive Nomogram of metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) that will effectively predict the early onset mCRPC in patients receiving androgen-deprivation therapy (ADT). The entire duration of study will be approximately 3 year. Participants will primarily be evaluated for achieving biochemical or radiological progression after receiving ADT based on EAU 2017 practice guideline criteria. Serum testosterone, prostate specific antigen (PSA), alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and blood routine will be monitored throughout the study.

The investigators will assess the feasibility of intraoperative use of C-arm cone-beam CT imaging for intraoperative dosimetric evaluation in prostate low-dose-rate (LDR) brachytherapy. Patients recruited are those who will receive standard LDR brachytherapy for prostate cancer treatment. Consenting patients will undergo additional 3D C-arm cone-beam CT imaging (3D C-arm) and motorized trans-rectal ultrasound (TRUS). Volumetric and dosimetric measures will be compared to those using the standard Day-0 CT images. The investigators hope that the intraoperative 3D C-arm provides quality assurance measures sufficient to eliminate the need for Day-0 CT LDR brachytherapy and provide the opportunity for intraoperative modification of seed delivery plan.

PROSTAC is a prospective multicentre observational study in metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer (mCRPC), designed to explore prognostic biomarkers in patients undergoing treatment with docetaxel or cabazitaxel
