Phase I/II Trial of Pembrolizumab and Androgen-receptor Pathway Inhibitor With or Without 225Ac-J591 for Progressive Metastatic Castration Resistant Prostate Cancer
NCT04946370
Recruiting
This is a phase I/II study investigating the combination of 225Ac-J591 (a drug that can deliver radiation to prostate cancer cells) with pembrolizumab (immunotherapy, a drug that increases the immune system's ability to destroy cancer cells). This study will assess whether 225Ac-J591 + pembrolizumab + androgen receptor pathway inhibitor (ARPI) is more effective against prostate cancer than pembrolizumab + ARPI alone.

Prostate Cancer Genetic Risk Evaluation and Screening Study
NCT05129605
Recruiting
This study aims to define the natural history of men at high genetic risk for prostate cancer on the basis of specific germline genetic mutations, family history, or Black/African ancestry and evaluate the utility of prostate MRI as a screening tool. The hypothesis is that this targeted population of men are at elevated risk of developing prostate cancer compared to the general population, and enhanced screening with MRI will enable early detection and diagnosis of potentially aggressive prostat...
