Rochester, Minn.
The purpose of this study is to identify DNA methylation (genetic) markers in non-cancerous prostate tissue, and compare with the markers previously found to be in prostate cancer tissue. This will provide data that can be used to identify genetic marker profiles to diagnose and provide prognosis for prostate cancer.
Castration-resistant prostate cancer patients with rising prostatic specific antigen (PSA) are eligible for this study. 11C-Choline PET/CT will be used to identify metastatic lesions. Patients with <=3 metastatic lesions will receive stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) as definitive treatment. Blood draws will be taken to monitor the development of anti-prostate cancer immunity
The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the feasibility and safety of MRI-guided focal laser ablation (Laser-Induced Interstitial Thermal Therapy, LITT) to treat low-risk native prostate cancer.
We are studying whether men being treated for prostate cancer have the same amount of side effects from either one of two different external radiation treatments: IMRT or PBT. With IMRT, a number of x-ray beams are used to shape the radiation to the prostate. PBT is another type of external radiation treatment for prostate cancer that is used in a few centers in the United States. Protons are tiny particles with positive charge that can be controlled to travel a certain distance and stop. PBT is precise like IMRT, but it uses proton beams instead of x-ray beams. IMRT and PBT aim to deliver most of the radiation to the prostate cancer while sparing surrounding tissues. Both IMRT and PBT have been used in the treatment of prostate cancer and are thought to be equally effective at curing prostate cancer. However, both treatments have also been shown to cause the potential side effects of radiation, including bowel, urinary and erectile problems. It is possible that side effect rates with PBT will be lower, the same, or even higher than with IMRT, but this has not been studied well to date. Though both of these radiation therapies have been used in the past to treat prostate cancer, there has never been a study that compares the effects of these two therapies to see which one has less side effects. In this research study, we are comparing IMRT to PBT to determine which therapy best minimizes the side effects of treatment.
Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz.
The goal of this study is to create and maintain a comprehensive genitourinary disease biospecimens bank consisting of tissue, kidney stones and bodily fluid (such as blood or urine, but not limited to this) samples.
Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz., Jacksonville, Fla.
The goal of this clinical study is to determine the safety and efficacy of VT-464, a lyase-selective inhibitor of CYP17 and an androgen receptor antagonist, in patients with castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) who have been previously treated with enzalutamide or abiraterone.
The purpose of this study is to compare the effects, good and/or bad of two treatment methods on subjects and their cancer. Proton beam radiation therapy is one of the treatments for men with prostate cancer who have localized disease. The benefit of the combination with androgen suppression is not completely understood. This study will compare the use of hypofraction proton therapy (28 treatments) alone to proton therapy with androgen suppression therapy.
Many of the current imaging tests we have for prostate cancer are problematic in their ability to distinguish cancerous from non-cancerous prostate tissue. This study is being performed to develop better imaging techniques to better identify and characterize prostate cancer.
The purpose of this research is to see if MR-guided cryoablation can effectively treat prostate tumor recurrences.
The purpose of this study is to determine the effectiveness and safety of applying platelet rich plasma to nerve bundles of patients who are undergoing radical prostate removal surgery to help the nerve bundles heal.
