Prostate Cancer Clinical Trials

This study will enroll 60 patients previously enrolled to MCC#18523, "A Validation Study on the Impact of Decipher® Testing on Treatment Recommendations in African-American and Non-African American Men with Prostate Cancer: (VANDAAM)" that had high risk Decipher test results (Decipher score \>0.45). Patients with a high genomic classifier (GC) score at diagnosis will be approached for formal consenting for PSMA-PET imaging at 2 years post treatment. Read Less

The DISCO App is designed to improve, during the interaction, patient active participation and patient-initiated oncologist treatment cost discussions, and, in the short term, patient's treatment cost knowledge, self-efficacy for managing both cost and physician interactions, referrals, perceived financial toxicity (i.e., distress and material hardship); in turn, these will affect longer-term outcomes of financial toxicity and adherence.

The purpose of this study is to determine the feasibility and effects of an adapted Exercising Together, a partnered resistance training program, on the physical and mental health of prostate cancer survivors and their informal caregiver. The Exercising Together program is designed to promote teamwork during supervised group exercise classes delivered remotely through videoconferencing software. The intervention period will be 3-months with a 3-month follow-up. Read Less

The purpose of this study is to see whether combining 2141-V11 with various standard treatments is an effective treatment approach for prostate cancer. 2141-V11 works by activating the immune system to find and kill cancer cells. Researchers will look at whether this treatment approach is able to completely get rid of cancer in participants, and they will check for the presence of minimal residual disease (MRD) in participants. MRD is a small number of cancer cells that can be detected in the body after treatment. Read Less

This is a prospective, randomized controlled trial to compare cancer control and health-related quality of life following pelvic fascia-sparing radical prostatectomy versus standard radical prostatectomy. The investigators hypothesize that pelvic fascia-sparing radical prostatectomy will have similar cancer control (primary outcome) and sexual function outcomes; and significantly better urinary function, penile shortening/deformity and inguinal hernia risks as compared to radical prostatectomy.

1. Personalize treatment for prostate cancer based on how aggressive the disease is and 2. Learn if apalutamide-based treatment can help to reduce fatigue and other side effects of treatment in participants who are being treated with radiation therapy for prostate cancer, as compared to standard therapy.

This study is designed to test the hypothesis that using Sipuleucel-T (Provenge) in combination with new hormonal agents (NHA) (abiraterone, enzalutamide, apalutamide) for the treatment of participants with asymptomatic metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) and no visceral metastases would enhance the activation of antigen presenting cells (APC) by sipuleucel-T.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the tolerability and toxicity of combining two radiation therapy methods for prostate cancer: Elective Pelvic Ultra Hypofractionated Irradiation Treatment (ePUHRT), which is an external beam radiotherapy with High Dose Rate Brachytherapy Boost (form of internal radiation where a cancer doctor implants a small plastic tube or balloon (catheter) in the tumor).

This phase II trial studies how well atezolizumab works alone or in combination with etrumadenant or tocilizumab in treating men with localized prostate cancer before radical prostatectomy. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as atezolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Androgens can cause the growth of prostate cancer cells. IL-6 is expressed by prostate cancer and within the tumor microenvironment and shown to enhance prostate cancer and disease progression. Treatment with an anti-IL-6 antibody such as tocilizumab may inhibit cancer progression. Giving atezolizumab in combination with etrumadenant or tocilizumab may work better in treating prostate cancer. Read Less

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of Lutetium-177-PSMA-617 (PLUVICTO) in patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) and extensive bone metastases, which appear as a "super scan" pattern on a bone scan. Pluvicto is FDA-approved, but patients with super scan bone scans were previously excluded from the VISION clinical trial, leaving a knowledge gap. The study will enroll up to 30 men with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer, with an initial dosing approach that differs from the standard dose. The safety and tolerability of PLUVICTO will be evaluated in this study, with a focus on identifying the optimal dose for this population. This study addresses an important gap in understanding how Pluvicto performs in mCRPC patients with super scan findings. Read Less

Active Surveillance (A.S.) of prostate cancer (CaP) is the systematic monitoring of men with low-risk, localized lesions, with curative treatment of those whose tumors show substantial progression. A.S. is different from Watchful Waiting (W.W.), which is the palliative treatment of men with progressive prostate cancer. Read Less

The purpose of this study is to test the safety and effectiveness of using brodalumab in patients who develop side effects from cancer immune therapy. Immune-related side effects are due to activation of the immune system in patients who previously received immunotherapy and the goal of this study is to help better control these side effects. Brodalumab is often used to treat patients with autoimmune diseases (diseases where the immune system is activated against normal organs) and safe doses and treatment schedules have been determined in these patients. Immune-related side effects appear to closely mirror these autoimmune conditions. Brodalumab has not been approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for use in immunotherapy side effects but it has been approved for treatment of autoimmune conditions.
