Prostate Cancer Diagnosis by Multiparametric Ultrasound (Wholemount)
Recruiting
This phase III trial investigates if perflutren lipid microspheres with ultrasound can be used to diagnose prostate cancer non-invasively. Definity (perflutren lipid microspheres) is an ultrasound contrast agent that is typically used for ultrasound bubble studies that involve the heart. Definity appears on ultrasound images as tiny gas-filled microbubbles. These microbubbles are about the size of a red blood cell and do not stay in a patient's body for more than several minutes, where they are... Read More

Communication About Sexual Health in Gynecologic Cancer
Recruiting
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if an educational video and workbook can help gynecologic cancer patients talk to their cancer providers about sexual health concerns. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Do gynecologic cancer patients who take part in the educational program and get a resource booklet talk to their cancer clinicians more about sexual health concerns than patients who get a resource booklet alone? 2. Do gynecologic cancer patients who take part in the educat... Read More

This phase II trial tests how well tailoring therapy in post-surgery works in patients with low-risk endometrial cancer. The usual approach for patients with low-risk endometrial cancer is treatment with surgery. In this study, tissue that is removed as part of the surgical procedure is analyzed in the pathology laboratory to help guide the doctor to decide whether or not additional treatment such as radiation and or chemotherapy should be recommended.
