Active clinical trials for "Prostatic Neoplasms"

Men who have Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) recurrence with low PSA levels and long doubling times do not require immediate treatment with androgen deprivation therapy and may be safely observed. In these situations where current treatment options may cause more unnecessary side effects than anticipated benefit, it is reasonable to use a low-risk natural product such as Acai Juice Product with antioxidant properties to evaluate whether there are any anti-cancer effects.

This is a multicenter open label non randomized phase II clinical trial of Weekly Cabazitaxel for Advanced Prostate Cancer in Hormone-Refractory Patients Previously Treated with Docetaxel. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the activity of the weekly administration of cabazitaxel as time to progression by PSA at week 12.

The purpose of this phase 2, open-label, single-arm, multidose, multicenter study is to investigate the effects of Orteronel plus Prednisone on the QT/QTc interval in patients with Metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostrate Cancer

This randomized phase II trial studies the best way to give abiraterone acetate in treating patients with castration-resistant prostate cancer. Abiraterone acetate is effective in treating castrate resistant prostate cancer and is taken in the fasting state. However, the body's absorption of abiraterone is increased with food intake. This study will test the whether a lower dose of abiraterone taken with food has a similar effect on prostate specific antigen (PSA) compared to full dose taken fasting.

The purpose of this study is to determine if enzalutamide is an effective therapy in treating localized prostate cancer prior to prostatectomy.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate hormone dynamics, pharmacokinetics, safety, and efficacy of TAP-144-SR(6M) against TAP-144-SR(3M) in prostate cancer patients previously treated with hormonal therapy.

This is a Phase 1 dose escalation study of an investigational agent, everolimus, given in combination with standard radiation therapy, in prostate cancers with a rising PSA following a prostatectomy. A maximum of 33 people will be enrolled on this study at the University of Pennsylvania. The primary objective of this study is to determine the acute and chronic toxicities and maximum tolerated dose of everolimus with concurrent radiation.

This phase II trial studies how well ipilimumab works when given together with androgen suppression therapy in treating patients with hormone-resistant prostate cancer that has spread to other parts of the body. Monoclonal antibodies, such as ipilimumab, can block tumor growth in different ways. Some block the ability of tumors to grow and spread. Others find tumor cells and help kill them or carry tumor-killing substances to them. Androgen can cause the growth of prostate cancer. Androgen deprivation therapy may stop the adrenal glands from making androgen. Giving ipilimumab together with androgen suppression therapy may kill more tumor cells.

The purpose of this study is to determine the safety of MDV3100 given in combination with Docetaxel in men with advanced prostate cancer.

This phase II trial studies how well linsitinib works in treating patients with asymptomatic or mild symptomatic metastatic prostate cancer. Linsitinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.
