Active clinical trials for "Prostatic Neoplasms"

This is a multicenter phase IIb study to evaluate the efficacy and tolerability of ModraDoc006 in combination with ritonavir (denoted ModraDoc006/r) in patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer, suitable for treatment with a taxane.

This study is an investigator initiated clinical study. A prospective, single arm unblinded, open label study will be carried out to determine the feasibility of recruitment, retention and adherence of 30 prostate cancer survivors who have been on androgen deprivation therapy within the last 5 years for a lifestyle modification intervention.

The goal of this study is to demonstrate the impact of a home based exercise program versus wait-list control to modulate circulating prognostic biomarkers in men with prostate cancer under active surveillance.

This is an open-label, Phase 1/2a dose escalation study with an expansion phase to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD), and preliminary efficacy of CORT125281 in combination with enzalutamide in patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) to identify a recommended dose (RD) for Phase 2 studies.

In this Phase I study, patients with hormone-sensitive Prostate Cancer (PC) and lymph node metastases are treated with the cancer vaccine Bcl-xl_42-CAF09b. The aim of the study is to clarify the safety and toxicity of the vaccine and also the immunological effect. The vaccine Bcl-xl_42-CAF09b is composed of the peptide Bcl-xl_42 and the adjuvant CAF09b. The B-cell lymphoma extra large protein (Bcl-xl) protein plays a vital role in the cancer cell's ability to avoid programmed cell death (apoptosis) and is upregulated in a variety of cancerous diseases. Bcl-xl_42 is a peptide fragment of the full protein and preclinical studies have shown that vaccination with this peptide (Bcl-xl) can activate the immune system and thereby lead to the death of cancer cells. In order to improve the activation of the immune system, adjuvant CAF09b is added; Preclinical studies have shown that special intraperitoneal (IP) injections of CAF09b improve the activation of the immune system.

A number of important systemic therapies have been developed to treat mCRPC and have received regulatory approval and now comprise the current therapeutic landscape. Durable and complete response following first-line chemotherapy in patients with advanced PC are uncommon. Most patients will ultimately experience disease progression within 6-9 months after initial response. Optimal Second line therapy in mCRPC is not well established and several options are possible. Olaparib has demonstrated anti-tumour activity in non-comparative studies in patients with germline BReast CAncer gene (gBRCA) mutated cancers including ovarian, breast, pancreas and prostate. Olaparib is indicated as monotherapy for the maintenance treatment of adult patients with platinum-sensitive relapsed Breast Cancer gene-mutated (germline and/or somatic) high grade serous epithelial ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer who are in response (complete response or partial response) to platinum-based chemotherapy. This phase II study is developed to assess the effect of maintenance treatment with olaparib on radiologic progression free survival (rPFS) in patients with mCRPC who have received at least 6 cycles of docetaxel and achieved partial or complete response or disease stabilization according RECIST 1.1 criteria and PCWG3.

Background: Metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) keeps growing even when the amount of testosterone in the body is reduced to very low levels. mCRPC is incurable. Researchers want to develop vaccines to teach the immune system to target and kill cancer cells. They want to test three of these vaccines (ETBX-071, ETBX-061, and ETBX-051) against mCRPC. Objective: To test the safety of combination ETBX-071, ETBX-061, and ETBX-051 and to study their effects on the immune system. Eligibility: People ages 18 and older with mCRPC that has not responded to standard therapies Design: Participants will be screened with: Medical history Physical exam Blood, urine, and heart tests Computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans Bone scan Participants will get the vaccines as shots under the skin every 3 weeks for 3 doses. They may then have the shots every 8 weeks for up to 1 year. Participants will keep a diary to record any symptoms from the vaccines. Participants will have blood tests each time they get the vaccines. They will also have scans and other tests to measure the effect the vaccines have on their tumors. Participants will have a visit within 28 days after their last treatment. This includes a physical exam and blood and urine tests. Participants will then be contacted by phone every 3 months for the first year, every 6 months for the next 2 years, and every 12 months for another 2 years. Participants will be asked to join a long-term follow up study.

Recent drug improvement (e.g. abiraterone or enzalutamide) for castration resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) patients has improved survival. As treatment strategies improve and patients live longer, patients must cope with their treatment-induced adverse effects. Improving levels of physical activity (PA) and less amounts of sitting time (e.g. sedentary behavior, SB) could have a positive impact on patient's health, non-cancer mortality, and quality of life and potentially improve survival. The role of PA has not yet been examined in CRPC patients, which is a clear unmet need. No specific PA guidelines exist for CRPC patients, but specific guidelines are warranted because of advanced disease stage, reduced performance score and comorbidity. It is to be expected that the PA level of CRPC patients is lower compared to non-CRPC patients receiving androgen deprivation therapy (ADT). This study aims to determine the optimal starting physical therapy prescription in CRPC patients receiving second line hormone treatment.

The purpose of this study is to test an approach of stimulating the body's immune system to attack prostate cancer. This study will test injection of a substance polylysine and carboxymethylcellulose (Poly-ICLC, Hiltonol®)through a needle guided by MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) ultrasound fusion technology into the prostate gland. Poly ICLC has been used to help the body in its fight against cancer. The first aim of the study is to determine the highest dose of a substance Poly-ICLC (Hiltonol®) that can be safely tolerated by the study participants. The second aim of the study is to find out the toxicity or side effects of poly-ICLC.

This is a Phase II, international, open-label, two-arm, non-randomised study of AZD4635 in participants with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC).
