NCT06463457
This research study is being done to determine the rate of testosterone recovery after completing two years of treatment with the combination of relugolix and darolutamide as well as to assess the safety of the drugs when administered in combination. The names of the drugs in this study are: * Relugolix (a type of gonadotropin-releasing hormone receptor antagonist) * Darolutamide (a type of androgen receptor antagonist)
NCT07426094
Patients with prostate cancer and pelvic lymph node involvement (cN1M0) identified on PSMA PET imaging represent a biologically aggressive yet potentially curable disease population. Contemporary management relies on multimodality treatment combining definitive radiotherapy to the prostate and pelvic lymph nodes with long-term androgen deprivation therapy (ADT), often intensified with androgen receptor pathway inhibitors. Despite these advances, a substantial proportion of patients still develop distant metastatic disease, highlighting the need to optimize local-regional treatment strategies in the era of molecular imaging. The introduction of PSMA PET has fundamentally altered staging accuracy in prostate cancer, enabling earlier and more precise detection of pelvic nodal disease. However, most existing evidence guiding radiotherapy dose prescription in node-positive prostate cancer originates from the pre-PSMA era. As a result, it remains unclear how best to integrate prostate-directed and nodal-directed dose escalation strategies when disease extent is defined by modern molecular imaging. In particular, it is unknown whether long-term disease control is primarily driven by durable intraprostatic tumor eradication, by aggressive treatment of involved lymph nodes, or by a combination of both. PRO-BOOST-N is a prospective, multicenter, randomized phase II/III clinical trial designed to address this critical evidence gap. The trial evaluates prostate-first versus combined prostate and nodal dose escalation strategies in patients with PSMA PET-staged node-positive (cN1M0) prostate cancer treated within a standardized ultrahypofractionated whole-pelvis radiotherapy framework. All enrolled patients indicated for definitive treatment undergo mandatory baseline PSMA PET/CT to confirm pelvic lymph node involvement and exclude distant metastatic disease. All patients receive a uniform radiotherapy backbone consisting of ultrahypofractionated whole-pelvis radiotherapy delivered in five fractions, combined with long-term ADT. Use of androgen receptor pathway inhibitors is permitted and encouraged according to contemporary clinical practice and local availability, ensuring the relevance of the trial to real-world treatment settings. Using a 2×2 factorial randomized design, PRO-BOOST-N evaluates two independent treatment factors. The primary randomized comparison assesses whether ablative prostate dose escalation improves oncologic outcomes compared with contemporary SBRT-based definitive prostate radiotherapy without additional boost. Prostate dose escalation may be delivered using one of three protocol-defined modalities-high-dose-rate brachytherapy, low-dose-rate brachytherapy, or single-fraction SBRT-according to institutional expertise. This comparison directly tests the hypothesis that durable intraprostatic disease control is the dominant determinant of long-term systemic disease suppression in node-positive prostate cancer. The key secondary, hierarchically tested comparison evaluates the role of nodal dose escalation by comparing two predefined dose levels delivered to PSMA PET-positive pelvic lymph nodes. These dose levels reflect intermediate versus higher nodal boost strategies based on biologically effective dose concepts specific to prostate cancer radiobiology. To ensure patient safety and protocol feasibility, organ-at-risk-driven nodal dose de-escalation is permitted within the higher-dose arm, without altering randomization assignment. The primary endpoint of the trial is metastasis-free survival. Secondary endpoints include overall survival, radiographic progression-free survival assessed primarily using PSMA PET imaging, intraprostatic and regional nodal control, time to castration-resistant prostate cancer, time to next systemic therapy, treatment-related toxicity graded according to CTCAE version 5.0, and patient-reported outcomes assessing urinary, bowel, sexual, and global quality of life. By prospectively and hierarchically evaluating prostate and nodal dose escalation strategies within a modern PSMA PET-guided and ultrahypofractionated radiotherapy platform, PRO-BOOST-N aims to define the optimal radiotherapy intensification approach for patients with node-positive prostate cancer. The results of this study are expected to directly inform clinical practice, guideline development, and future treatment individualization in the PSMA PET era.
NCT06335914
This study will use Prostate Specific Membrane Antigen (PSMA) and (18)F-Fluorodeoxyglucose Positron Emission Tomography (FDG PET) imaging in patients with advanced prostate cancer to learn about tumor biology across disease stages and during treatment. This may help with treatment selection and potential response monitoring in the future.
NCT06895291
Multicenter, observational, prospective, study. All patients will be treated and monitored according to the local clinical practice. No additional procedures/patient visits in comparison with the usual clinical practice are planned for the study.
NCT02420977
This research is being done to see if an investigational radioactive imaging agent (radiotracer) called 18F-DCFPyL can help us find prostate cancer at its original site in the prostate gland and in distant sites (bone, lymph nodes) in men diagnosed with prostate cancer before surgery.
NCT03350529
This study assesses feasibility and safety, the primary outcomes, of MRI guided transurethral high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) ablation for prostate diseases (PD). We will enrol 10 patients to each group with criteria as follows: localised prostate cancer (PC); locally advanced PC; locally recurrent PC after external beam radiation therapy (EBRT); benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). Secondary outcomes are both oncologic and functional outcomes and imaging based follow up after HIFU therapy will be also assessed.
NCT03193060
This study is a multi-centre, prospective observational study. The study plans to enrol 500 patients with localized or locally advanced prostate cancer who are eligible and intended to be prescribed Zoladex® (goserelin acetate implant) 10.8 mg or Zoladex® (goserelin acetate implant) 3.6 mg as monotherapy or in combination with androgen blockade (CAB) at 50 clinical sites in China. The effectiveness and safety data will be collected at baseline and each visit within 26 weeks after treatment of Zoladex®.
NCT05406999
This is a prospective, multicenter, multi-arm, non-randomized, open-label clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of neoadjuvant intense endocrine therapy for high-risk or locally advanced prostate cancer.

PRORADIUM is a prospective multicentre observational study in metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer (mCRPC), designed to explore prognostic biomarkers in patients undergoing treatment with radium-223.
NCT02234089
The purpose of this study is to detect factors influencing decision making for treatment pathways of hormone-naïve prostate cancer patients with and without comorbidities receiving medicinal androgen deprivation therapy (Degarelix or LHRH agonists).
