Active clinical trials for "Prostatic Neoplasms"

The ProSpace™ System is intended to temporarily position the anterior rectal wall away from the prostate during radiotherapy for prostate cancer and in creating this space it is the intent of the ProSpace System to reduce the radiation dose delivered to the anterior rectum. ProSpace is a balloon composed of a biodegradable material that maintains that space for the entire course of prostate radiotherapy treatment and is completely absorbed by the patient's body over time.

The DDI study had been designed to investigate the effect of SHR3680 on the pharmacokinetics of Midazolam, S-Warfarin and Omeprazole

MAEVA, which stands for Meditation, Acceptance and Commitment towards Values, is an open and circular program, made up of 3 themed sessions, following a weekly rhythm. It is proposed here to study this program over a period of 3 months, which will give participants the opportunity to complete up to three complete cycles. This program is based on the practice of and the processes of acceptance and commitment therapy. These approaches, used for several years, have proven their effectiveness in the management of stress, chronic anxiety, insomnia, chronic pain, distress in the face of chronic disease, as well as in the prevention of depressive relapses and management of impulsivity. Unlike conventional 8-week meditation programs, the MAEva program allows patients to enter the study at any stage of the disease (within, outside the exclusion criteria) and from any session and to participate according to their possibilities. The patient can participate in a weekly session of the program for 3 cycles. During the sessions, it will be proposed to train meditative practices and 3 different themes will be addressed (one theme per session): Meditation, Acceptance and Commitment to values. .

Radiotherapy (RT) of the abdomen and/or pelvis is known to cause acute and late gastrointestinal (GI) toxicities. While radiation dose and volume are known risk factors for developing such side effects, recent evidence suggests patterns of disturbance in the composition of the GI microbiota - so called "dysbiosis" - may also promote the host's susceptibility to GI toxicities through impaired intestinal barrier function and inflammation. The IMPRINT-study aims to expand the current knowledge on the role of intestinal bacteria and their metabolites involved in the pathophysiology of radiation-induced GI toxicities by longitudinally examining the microbiota composition (feces), the associated metabolome (blood, feces and urine) and bacterial extracellular vesicles (BEVs) (blood and feces).

This randomized pilot clinical trial studies how well a computer-based behavior change guide works in increasing physical activity in patients with prostate cancer who have received androgen deprivation therapy. A computer-based behavior change guide website may increase physical activity level for prostate cancer survivors and help doctors understand what outcomes related to becoming physically active are most important to patients with prostate cancer.

The current study is designed as a phase Ib multiple dose study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of E4 in healthy men after daily oral administration for 28 days.

To measure antigen-specific interferon-secretion by enzyme-linked immunospot (ELISPOT) assay, which measures antigen-specific interferon-secretion.

The investigators will compare tumor marker levels, including PSA, in samples taken from a peripheral upper limb vein and the internal iliac veins. These will be collected from patients who are scheduled for prostatectomy as part of their standard of care for prostate cancer. A selective internal iliac vein sampling procedure will be performed in Interventional Radiology. Venous samples will be correlated with prostatectomy specimens. The aim is to predict the side of the prostate containing tumor.

Primary objective: To investigate the biodistribution, radiation dosimetry, and pharmacokinetics of two separate intravenous (IV) injections of Xofigo (100 kBq/kg body weight [b.w.] [=110 kBq/kg based on the 2015 National Institute of Standards and Technology standardization], 6 weeks apart). Secondary objectives: To determine the safety of IV injections of Xofigo after two separate injections (6 weeks apart), to evaluate treatment response (antitumour effect in osteoblastic bone metastases) of Xofigo treatment consisting of two injections of activity 100 kBq/kg b.w. (=110 kBq/kg based on the 2015 National Institute of Standards and Technology standardization), 6 weeks apart and to evaluate long term radiation toxicity and to collect survival data at 6 and 12 months after the first injection

The purpose of this study is to determine the effectiveness of a four months strength training program on physical and psychological health in patients with prostate cancer during androgen deprivation therapy. It is hypothesized a beneficial effect of the intervention on physical and psychological health in patients with prostate cancer treated with androgen deprivation.
