NCT00002597
RATIONALE: Radiation therapy (RT) uses high-energy x-rays to damage tumor cells. Androgens can stimulate the growth of prostate cancer cells. Hormone therapy using flutamide, goserelin, and leuprolide may fight prostate cancer by reducing the production of androgens. It is not yet known which regimen of antiandrogen therapy is most effective for prostate cancer. PURPOSE: Randomized phase III trial to study the effectiveness of radiation therapy with or without antiandrogen therapy in treating patients who have stage I or stage II prostate cancer.
NCT01522443
Bone metastases and associated pain are a major cause of morbidity and mortality in castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC). Most approved therapies have shown some ability to reduce soft tissue lesions but none meaningfully impacts bone metastases (as demonstrated by lack of resolution of lesions on bone scan with these agents) or the pain associated with these metastases. This study will evaluate the effect of cabozantinib versus mitoxantrone plus prednisone on pain response and bone scan response in men with CRPC.
NCT02083185
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of TAK 385 for achieving and maintaining testosterone suppression (\<50 ng/dL).
NCT00988208
The purpose of the study is to determine whether lenalidomide is safe and effective for use in combination with docetaxel and prednisone for the treatment of subjects with metastatic Castrate-Resistant Prostate Cancer. The addition of lenalidomide to docetaxel and prednisone is proposed to increase the life expectancy of these subjects.
NCT00838201
The purpose of this study is to describe the safety and tolerability of up to 5 years (ie, 3 years under the 20040138 Amgen study and 2 years on this study) denosumab administration as measured by adverse events, immunogenicity, and safety laboratory parameters in subjects who previously received denosumab for non-metastatic prostate cancer.
NCT01605227
This study will evaluate the effect of cabozantinib compared to prednisone on overall survival in men with previously treated metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer with bone-dominant disease who have experienced disease progression on docetaxel-containing chemotherapy and abiraterone or MDV3100.
NCT02445976
The goal of this clinical study is to determine the efficacy and safety of Seviteronel, 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 and/or abiraterone.
NCT00132301
VA Cooperative Study #553 is designed to prospectively evaluate the efficacy of early adjuvant chemotherapy using docetaxel and prednisone added to the standard of care for patients who are potentially cured by radical prostatectomy but who are at high risk for relapse. The standard of care is surveillance, with the addition of androgen deprivation at the time of biochemical relapse. This study will assess the effect of adding early chemotherapy to the standard of care on progression free survival in Veterans at high risk for progression after prostatectomy.
NCT02012920
The goal of this clinical study is to determine the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and activity of Seviteronel, a lyase-selective inhibitor of CYP17, in patients with castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC).
NCT01326286
This study will primarily compare the effectiveness of surgery and radiation for localized prostate cancer, the most common male cancer. It will focus on modern technologies and control for differences in patients and treatments that may affect both cancer-related and patient-reported outcomes (such as impotence and incontinence). By figuring out what treatments "work best, in which patients and in whose hands", it will help men with prostate cancer make better decisions regarding their care.
NCT01286987
This is a single-arm, open-label study to assess the safety, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and preliminary efficacy of talazoparib in patients with advanced tumors with DNA-repair pathway deficiencies. There will be 2 parts to the study: a dose escalation phase in which the maximum tolerated dose will be defined, and a dose expansion phase.
NCT01519414
This randomized phase II trial studies how well tivantinib works compared to placebo in treating patients with metastatic prostate cancer. Tivantinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.
NCT00384839
The purpose of this research study is to find out what effects (good and bad) Vidaza has on patients with prostate cancer. This investigational drug is not approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of prostate cancer; however, it is approved in myelodysplastic syndrome - a bone marrow disease. The pharmaceutical company involved in this study, Pharmion Corporation, is the manufacturer of Vidaza.
NCT01385228
The primary purpose is to define the safety and tolerability of docetaxel/prednisone in combination with pazopanib (DPP) in men with metastatic Castration Resistant Prostate Cancer (mCRPC).
NCT00570700
The purpose of this research study is to find out if a new anti-cancer drug, dasatinib (Sprycel®), previously approved for treatment of some forms of leukemia, will be safe and helpful in treating patients with hormone-refractory prostate cancer. This is a research study because the study drug, dasatinib (Sprycel®), has not been evaluated for safety or effectiveness in patients with hormone-refractory prostate cancer. The drug is approved by the Food and Drug Administration for treatment of some forms of leukemia; thus, dasatinib (Sprycel®) is not an investigational drug. It has been given safely to hundreds of patients already. However its safety and usefulness in this study population (prostate cancer) is unknown. Subjects who agree to participate will take 150mg (3 pills) of dasatinib (Sprycel®) daily by mouth for as long as the drug benefits them. During this time, the subject will periodically return to the office for blood/urine tests, X-rays, imaging scans, and/or to complete questionnaires.
NCT02441517
The purpose of the study was to understand if there is benefit in treatment with a medicine called enzalutamide in the re-treatment setting. Patients must have been previously treated with enzalutamide in the pre-chemotherapy setting for a minimum of 8 months and have disease progressed, followed by docetaxel and/or cabazitaxel for at least 4 cycles.
NCT03504761
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the effectiveness and safety of the ClariCore System in obtaining prostate biopsies with device feedback that provides real-time tissue classification.
NCT02928640
The purpose of the study is to collect information on prostrate biopsy tissue for use in developing a method determining the difference in normal and cancerous prostrate tissue using the ClariCore System.
NCT00527124
This randomized phase II trial is studying how well giving docetaxel and prednisone together with or without cediranib works in treating patients with metastatic prostate cancer that did not respond to hormone therapy. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as docetaxel and prednisone, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Cediranib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth and by blocking blood flow to the tumor. Giving docetaxel together with prednisone, with or without cediranib, may kill more tumor cells.
NCT00516256
The aims include: 1. To measure the effect of the three study conditions on Quality of Life (QOL). * CHESS and Cancer Information Mentor will not differ initially (6 weeks) or late in treatment (6 months) in QOL * CHESS +Cancer Information Mentor will have the largest impact on QOL (initially and late in treatment) and will be significantly better than either CHESS or Cancer Information Mentor alone. 2. To measure potential intervening or mediating processes, so that we can determine how CHESS and the Cancer Information Mentor produce associated QOL benefits. 3. To conduct exploratory use analyses examining which types of CHESS content, sequential patterns of content use, or other characteristics of use behavior are associated with greater pretest-posttest improvements in QOL. 4. To conduct a secondary analysis exploring whether men whose partners have actively used CHESS do better than those whose partners did not use CHESS.
