Active clinical trials for "Prostatic Neoplasms"

The goal of this interventional non-inferiority trial is to assess the accuracy of different real-time motion management radiotherapy techniques. The main question the study aims to answer are: What are the target margins for radiotherapy with motion management that are not inferior to target margin without motion management What are the dosimetric and geometrical accuracy to patient for the motion management techniques. Participants will answer QoL questionary, and the accuracy of treatment will be assessed from treatment data.

Prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA)-targeted PET imaging with 68Ga-labeled compounds is able to provide superior sensitivity and specificity to detect primary prostate tumor and its metastases, like the most widely studied 68Ga-PSMA-11. This pilot study was evaluate the diagnostic performance of 68Ga-P16-093, a novel radiopharmaceutical targeting PSMA, which was compared with 68Ga-PSMA-11 in the same group of primary prostate cancer patients.

Prostate cancer (PCa) is the most common non-dermatologic malignancy in U.S. men. Transrectal ultrasound (TRUS)-guided prostate biopsy is a commonly used diagnostic procedure for men with an elevated serum prostate-specific antigen (PSA) level and/or abnormal digital rectal examination (DRE). It is estimated that more than 1 million TRUS-guided prostate biopsies are performed annually in the U.S. alone. However, a freehand TRUS-guided systematic biopsy (SB) procedure has significant limitations. First, freehand biopsy cores are often spatially clustered, rather than uniformly distributed, and do not accurately follow the recommended, sextant template. Second, a freehand TRUS-guided biopsy does not allow precise mapping of the biopsy cores within the prostate. Targeted biopsy (TB) using special devices emerged to help the physicians guide the biopsy using multiparametric MRI (mpMRI). TB cores yield a higher cancer detection rate of clinically significance PCa than SB cores, but TB cores also miss a large number of clinically significant PCa that are detected by SB. Accordingly, TB is commonly performed concurrently with SB (TB+SB procedure).

The course and progression of prostate cancer is highly variable, depending on the individual characteristics, the aggressiveness of the disease at the time of diagnosis as well as the ethno-geographic origins of the individuals. The general objective of the project is to identify the clinical, genetic and environmental determinants (risk factors) of the evolution, progression and complications of the disease according to the treatment options. Identifying modifiable and non-modifiable prognostic determinants of disease progression is a major challenge. This knowledge will help guide treatment choices but also, especially in high-risk populations (high incidence of disease) to better tailor prevention policies and possibly screening .

Exploratory study in adult males with metastatic prostate cancer intended to characterize the pharmacokinetics and biodistribution of PSMA-Targeted [In-111]-Labeled Trillium Compounds with and without the cytoprotective agent PTI-122. Up to 36 eligible subjects will be enrolled. Additional subjects may be enrolled if there is insufficient data for evaluation, for example if the original study subjects do not complete required imaging studies for reasons unrelated to adverse events. Up to four PSMA-Targeted [In-111]-Labeled Trillium Compounds will be evaluated. Each compound will be evaluated first without the cytoprotective agent, PTI-122, then the [In-111]-labeled Trillium Compound may be co-administered with PTI-122.

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the impact of a phone call before the simulation CT scan in management of care of patients with prostate cancer.

The objective of the proposed study is to scale social risk factor screening and referral for cancer survivors and to solidify information exchange between clinical and community settings in order to improve survivor health and well-being. This will be completed through three primary aims: 1) To ascertain workflow and map community resources needed to facilitate social risk factor screening and referral for breast and prostate cancer survivors in Washington, District of Columbia. 2) To determine impact of Community Health Worker (CHW) support on Black breast and prostate cancer survivor health and wellbeing as measured through quality of life (QOL) and social connection. 3) To determine impact of anti-racism training for staff and clinicians at three cancer centers on patient-reported discrimination.

The paramedic urology team at Martinique University Hospital has developed a "personalized rehabilitation oncosexology program for patients undergoing radical prostatectomy (RP) for localized prostate cancer". The aim of this project is to assess the effectiveness of this program by comparing the sexual quality of life 1 year after surgery between patients participating and those who do not.

Objectives: This project aims to develop a self-management program for survivors with prostate cancer experiencing urinary incontinence following radical prostatectomy and determine its effectiveness. Methods: The investigators will develop a self-management program and conduct a pilot study on survivors with prostate cancer experiencing urinary incontinence following radical prostatectomy. And the investigators will test the effectiveness of the self-management program. After completing a pretest, participants will be randomly assigned to the experimental or control group. The self-management group will receive the self-management program for 12 weeks, whereas the information group will receive an information package on a healthy diet. Posttests will be administered 12 and 16 weeks after the pretest. The study variables will include physical symptoms and bothers, cancer-related self-efficacy, social participation, demoralization, and resilience.

The purpose of this research is to determine whether a 16-week culturally tailored, technology-based, aerobic and resistance exercise intervention improves cardiovascular risk factors in Black men diagnosed with prostate cancer and are undergoing androgen deprivation therapy (ADT), and whether it will also improve physical fitness and function, body composition, and outcomes such as quality of life, cancer symptoms, and self-esteem. Participants in this study will be randomly assigned to one of two groups: 1) Aerobic and resistance exercise, or 2) Usual care.
