Clinical Trials

The purpose of this study is to determine the effectiveness and safety of applying platelet rich plasma to nerve bundles of patients who are undergoing radical prostate removal surgery to help the nerve bundles heal.

The objective of the current study is to evaluate the efficacy of a novel, class I (ie. lowest risk, clinical studies not required) medical penile traction device in preventing loss of penile length in men undergoing robotic-assisted prostatectomy.

The primary objective of this study is to compare the safety and effectiveness for the TULSA Procedure versus radical prostatectomy in treating men with localized intermediate-risk prostate cancer.

This randomized phase III trial studies how well hypofractionated radiation therapy works compared to conventional radiation therapy after surgery in treating patients with prostate cancer. Hypofractionated radiation therapy delivers higher doses of radiation therapy over a shorter period of time and may kill more tumor cells and have fewer side effects. Conventional radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays, gamma rays, neutrons, protons, or other sources to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. It is not yet known whether giving hypofractionated radiation therapy or conventional radiation therapy after surgery may work better in treating patients with prostate cancer.

This phase II pilot trial studies how well bicalutamide and raloxifene hydrochloride work in treating patients with prostate cancer undergoing surgery. Antihormone therapy, such as bicalutamide and raloxifene hydrochloride, may lessen the amount of androgens made by the body.

The purpose of this study is to investigate whether malignant prostate cancer cells can be identified in seminal fluid expressed during the course of robotic radical prostatectomy, as such cells may be a currently unrecognized source of local recurrence after surgery.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the feasibility of perioperative electronic physical activity monitor use in a surgical population.

The objective of this study is to compare perioperative and oncologic outcomes of patients undergoing open and robotic prostatectomy for prostate cancer.

The purpose of this registry is to collect detailed clinical, epidemiological and biological information from 5,000 male patients with advanced prostate cancer.

The objectives are to describe the practice patterns of therapeutic agents for treatment of advanced prostate cancer internationally; to assess whether specific treatment patterns are associated with clinically significant adverse events, and evaluate potential interactions with concomitant medications or demographic factors; to identify associations between treatment sequences or combinations and overall survival; to define the patient experience of men with advanced prostate cancer and identify unmet needs in their treatment; and to identify clinical and molecular disease subtypes that predict response to individual treatments, combinations, or sequences.

The purpose of this study is to compare urinary bladder radioactivity observed on piflufolastat (18F) PET and flotufolastat (18F) PET.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether men treated for localized prostate cancer adhere to a long-term (months-years) daily intermittent fasting regimen, and to measure the levels of metabolic and prostate-cancer derived microparticles in the serum of men that practice a daily intermittent fasting regimen after treatment for localized, high-risk prostate cancer.

The purpose of this study is to determine if treatment with androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) plus apalutamide before and after radical prostatectomy in participants with high-risk localized or locally advanced prostate cancer results in an improvement in pathological complete response (pCR) rate and metastasis-free survival (MFS), as compared to ADT plus placebo.

This phase II trial studies how well hypofractionated radiation therapy works in treating participants with prostate cancer high-risk features following radical prostatectomy. Hypofractionated radiation therapy delivers higher doses of radiation therapy over a shorter period of time and may kill more tumor cells and have fewer side effects.

RATIONALE: Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to damage tumor cells. Androgens can stimulate the growth of prostate cancer cells. Hormone therapy using bicalutamide may fight prostate cancer by reducing the production of androgens. It is not yet known if radiation therapy is more effective with or without bicalutamide for prostate cancer. PURPOSE: Randomized phase III trial to compare the effectiveness of radiation therapy with or without bicalutamide in treating patients who have stage II, stage III, or recurrent prostate cancer and elevated PSA levels following radical prostatectomy.

The purpose of this study is to assess the diagnostic performance of 64Cu-SAR-bisPSMA PET to detect regional nodal metastases.

This is a prospective, single-arm investigative trial. Patients with high risk prostate cancer, defined by AUA guidelines, who elect robotic assisted radical prostatectomy with an extended pelvic lymph node dissection will have standard of care preoperative imaging with CT/MRI + NM Bone Scan compared with 18F-rhPSMA-7.3 PET/MRI. Preoperative clinicopathologic variables including PSA, prostate biopsy pathology results reported as Gleason grade and percent positivity, imaging tests and demographic information will be abstracted from the electronic health record at enrollment.

Intraoperatively the lymph node packets will be labeled according to laterality and location to include internal iliac, external iliac, ...
