Active clinical trials for "Prostatic Diseases"

Purpose: To find the correlation between hemogram parameters and Delta Neutrophil Index(DNI) and Serum PSA in patients presenting with the diagnosis of acute prostatitis. Material-Metod: Serum PSA levels and hemogram parameters of patients who came to the urology outpatient clinic in January 2018 and May 2022 and were diagnosed with prostatitis were collected retrospectively.

This is a preliminary evaluation of a radiotracer's biodistribution in human subjects. It is a prospective, single-centre, open-label, single group assignment interventional study. Prostate cancer is very common, and PSMA imaging is currently the most accurate means of localizing these tumours. The goal is to evaluate the biodistribution and safety of [68Ga]HTK03149 PET/CT for prostate cancer imaging.

The prostatic biopsies echo-guided are a painful and stressful. The purpose is to test a new medical device created recently, " Hypnos-Pro ", wich uses connected technologies. This connected device is a mask with diodes coupled with an audio headset and a touch pad. This connected mask is an another option to induce an hypnotic state for our patients. the objective is to value hypnotic mask effectiveness, to reduce the level pain and anxiety for the patients who benefit a prostatic biopsies echo-guided with local anesthesia.

Incidence of cancer in 75+ years old is 16,500 new cases per year, more than fifty percent of people with cancerThey are very few therapeutic trials dedicated. Oncologists hesitate to treat them because they are either afraid of inducing toxicity or of breaking down quality of life. Consequently, we decided to launch a protocol with both oncologists and geriatricians which principal aim is to find out if geriatric assessment data can help to better predict for chemotherapy toxicity, loss of autonomy and survival. We plan to accrue 360 patients diagnosed for cancer, including digestive, pulmonary, prostate, lymphoma, bladder, ovary cancer for whom first-line chemotherapy is planned. Patients are initially classified according to usual methods of medical oncology practice into three groups: patients who can receive standard treatment, reduced standard treatment or treatment adapted to the frail condition. Around Aquitaine, , we organised seven teams composed of one geriatrician and one nurse. Two kind of teams were activated: one which cover ten treatment sites in Bordeaux area and six sedentary teams which worked half a day a week in designated hospitals . Geriatric evaluation included test of cognitive functions (MMS), nutritional status (MNA), co-morbidity (CIRS-G), mobility (Get up and Go), activities (ADL;IADL), quality of life (QLQ-C30), depression (GDS-15) and Lachs-Balducci screening. Patients have four geriatric evaluations : before treatment, day 1 cycle 2, day 1 cycle 4, day 1 cycle 7 and/or end of chemotherapy. Since September 2002, 177 patients have been included, 112 have finished: 47.3% have received four evaluations, 16.1% died before the end of protocol, 14.3% stopped because they were in progression and changed their treatment, 11.6% met administrative problem that didn't allow all evaluations, 7.1% declined after inclusion and 3.6% finished their treatment before. The following results have been obtained: before treatment, 73% of these patients were at risk of undernutrition (MNA< 23.5), about 1/3 had one or more inability or a risk of falls (38% IADL<6, 29% get up and go>20seconds, 27% ADL>1, 34% PS<1), 28% of them had altered cognitive functions (MMS<24), 29% were depressive (GDS-15>6), 25% thought they had poor quality of life (QLQ-C30<4). Protocol will be closed in September 2005.

The purpose of this investigational study is to find out what hormones are present in healthy male testicles using fine needle aspiration.

This study will identify significant clinical parameters and individual risk factors related to certain prostate disease (BPH, prostatitis and prostate cancer). With the identified important correlations, a locally generated bias free nomogram will be constructed for predicting prostate biopsy outcome among Asian men with indications for prostate biopsy. While this study will evaluate the accuracy and predictive value of this novel prostate disease nomogram.

The purpose of this study is to see if the ConfirmMDx assay is useful in finding prostate cancer in patients who are at increased risk for prostate cancer based on elevated PSA and prostate lesion identified on mpMRI.

This study provides expanded access to radiotracer Gallium 68 (68Ga)-prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA)-HBED-CC (68Ga-PSMA-11) with Positron Emission Tomography (PET) imaging for participants with intermediate and high risk prostate cancer before prostatectomy or for suspected biochemical recurrence of their prostate cancer. Compared to conventional imaging, 68Ga PSMA-HBED-CC might improve the ability to localize the sites of recurrent or metastatic disease, which helps with surgical and other treatment planning.
