Active clinical trials for "Prostatic Neoplasms"

The purpose of this study is to evaluate pharmacokinetics (PK) following a single dose and multiple dose treatment and the safety of apalutamide in Chinese participants with metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) at dose of 240 milligram (mg).

This phase Ib trial studies the dose and schedule of 177Lu-PSMA-617 and pembrolizumab in treating patients with castration-resistant prostate cancer that has spread to other places in the body. 177Lu-PSMA-617 carries a radioactive component which attached to the prostate specific membrane antigen (PSMA) receptor found on tumor cells. Its radiation component destroys the tumor cell. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may help the body?s immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving 177Lu-PSMA-617 and pembrolizumab may work better at treating prostate cancer.

Patients with post-prostatectomy PSA (Prostate Specific Antigen) recurrences with aggressive disease features will receive salvage radiation therapy and standard androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) or enhanced ADT to determine if there is any improvement in progression-free survival when enhanced ADT is used compared to standard ADT.

This study is being done to see how safe and effective abemaciclib is when given together with abiraterone acetate plus prednisone in participants with metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer. Prednisolone may be used instead of prednisone per local regulation.

This is a prospective biomarker study of patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) undergoing sequential treatment with docetaxel and enzalutamide. The participants will undergo serial pre- and post-therapy blood collection for biomarker analysis as part of the primary objective of the study. The primary goal of this study is to evaluate the association of the AR-V7 status and androgen receptor (AR) gene alterations with PSA response to docetaxel and enzalutamide.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety (including evaluating side effects) of combination of olaparib and abiraterone versus placebo and abiraterone in patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) who have received no prior cytotoxic chemotherapy or new hormonal agents (NHAs) at metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) stage.

In summary this trial will test whether this new surgical technique can be used to make surgery safer and more effective whilst allowing improved quality of life for patients having surgery for prostate cancer. If the technique is proven effective the investigators will use the experience gained to promote its use throughout the NHS through training courses and publication and dissemination of the resultant data. Staff from centres participating in this trial will be fully trained in the NeuroSAFE technique. A patient and public involvement afternoon was held for participants of the NeuroSAFE PROOF feasibility study, family members, men with prostate cancer, and staff members at UCLH. The event was supported by the charity Orchid Cancer appeal. The high levels of attendance was demonstrative of the support within our patient group for the work of this trial. The trial team listened to the comments made by participants and members of the public and have made some changes to the design of our trial as a result of this feedback.

A population-based randomised trial of prostate cancer screening will be carried out. A total of approximately 117,200 men aged 50-63 in Helsinki and Tampere are randomised to intervention (screening) or control arm. A reduction in harms of screening in the form of overdiagnosis is sought, while retaining as much as possible of the mortality benefit (reduction in prostate cancer mortality). Novel methods that have been shown to increase specificity for clinically relevant prostate cancer but never tested in a randomised setting will be employed in screening and diagnostics. The main end-point is prostate cancer mortality at 10 and 15 years of follow-up.

This phase I/II trial studies the side effects of avelumab when given in different combinations with utomilumab, anti-OX40 antibody PF-04518600, and radiation therapy in treating patients with malignancies that have spread to other places in the body (advanced). Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as avelumab, utomilumab, and anti-OX40 antibody PF-04518600, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Radiation therapy uses high-energy rays to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. It is not yet known how well avelumab works in combination with these other anti-cancer therapies in patients with advanced malignancies.

This is a phase IIa, open label, single arm, and prospective study of hormone therapy-naïve men with oligometastatic prostate cancer to the bone. The study will test if treating the primary tumor sites and 5 or fewer sites of bone-only metastasis with external beam radiation with concomitant systemic Radium-223 will reduce the utilization of androgen deprivation therapy, improve QOL and improve OS over a the comparator cohort of SWOG intermittent ADT historic cohort.
