Miami, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT05396872Recruiting
Decision-making study about gene testing for advanced prostate cancer
This study looks at how Veterans with advanced prostate cancer make decisions about gene testing and possible targeted treatments, and how patients and caregivers understand the information. It may help by improving decision support for people facing germline and tumor testing choices.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05361798RecruitingPhase 2
Testing immune response after prostate radiation with or without a drug
This study checks how your immune system’s cancer-fighting cells change after stereotactic body radiation (SBRT) to the prostate. It compares SBRT alone versus SBRT plus an immunotherapy drug (PDS01ADC) in men with intermediate- or high-risk localized prostate cancer treated with hormone therapy (ADT).
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT05348876RecruitingPhase 4
Darolutamide plus standard hormone therapy for high-risk prostate cancer
This trial studies how safe darolutamide is and how well it works when added to standard hormone therapy for men with high-risk, non-metastatic prostate cancer that is no longer responding to hormone treatment. It may help slow prostate cancer growth and reduce prostate-specific antigen (PSA) rises in real-world care.
Vijayawada, Andhra PradeshAges 18 years+ - NCT05313815Recruiting
Test a stronger prostate radiation boost for high-risk prostate cancer
This trial studies whether giving a moderate “boost” dose of radiation to the prostate—along with radiation to the pelvic area—can better control high-risk localized prostate cancer. You may benefit if you have high-risk disease and can safely receive radiation.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT04945642Recruiting
Radiation combination therapy for intermediate to high-risk prostate cancer
This trial studies a combination of two radiation types—high-dose-rate brachytherapy and stereotactic body radiotherapy—to treat certain intermediate- to high-risk prostate cancers. It may help by aiming radiation closely at the prostate while also targeting the cancer from outside the body.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04947254RecruitingPhase 2
Add niraparib to hormone therapy after prostate radiation
This Phase 2 trial tests whether adding niraparib to standard hormone therapy (androgen ablation) after radiation works better for men with high-risk, localized or locally advanced prostate cancer. It may help control the cancer for longer, while also collecting extra tissue and blood to study why the treatment works or doesn’t.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT04787744RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Test standard prostate cancer treatment with or without targeted spot radiation
This study tests whether adding targeted local treatment (like radiation to a few spots seen on scans) improves outcomes for some people with limited (oligometastatic) prostate cancer. It compares standard systemic therapy alone versus standard therapy plus PET-scan–guided spot treatment.
Long Beach, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04812366RecruitingPhase 2
Genetic test-guided treatment before prostate surgery
This trial tests different drugs before prostate surgery based on a person's genetic profile. It aims to find better treatments for high-risk prostate cancer that hasn't spread yet.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04725903Recruiting
Proton beam radiation for high-risk prostate cancer
This trial tests proton radiation therapy for people with high-risk prostate cancer. It may help by delivering radiation in a more targeted way, with the goal of controlling the cancer while reducing exposure to nearby healthy tissue.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT04751435Recruiting
Genetic testing education for cancer patients of diverse backgrounds
This study tests new educational materials about genetic testing for cancer patients. It aims to find the best ways to explain genetic testing to people from different backgrounds, especially Black, Latino, and non-Latino non-Black communities.
Brooklyn, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT04589468Recruiting
Exercise for cancer survivors at high risk
This study tests whether a structured exercise program can help prevent cancer from coming back in people who have been treated for certain solid tumors (colorectal, ovarian, lung, or breast cancer). If you've completed surgery and adjuvant therapy within the past 2 years and are currently not exercising much, you may be eligible. Participation involves following an exercise plan and regular check-ins.
Durate, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04402151RecruitingPhase 2
PSMA scan–guided targeted radiation for higher-risk prostate cancer
This trial uses a special PET/MR scan to help doctors aim stereotactic radiation more precisely for certain higher-risk or unfavorable intermediate prostate cancers. It studies whether this targeted approach can safely treat the prostate (and specific areas needing extra treatment) without spreading to the body.
New York, New YorkAges 21–90 - NCT04399876Enrolling by invitationPhase 1
Testing an implantable device to study drug response in prostate cancer
This early-phase study uses a tiny implant placed during prostate cancer surgery planning to help researchers measure how tumors respond to treatment while still in the body. The results may help improve future treatment choices for men with intermediate- or high-risk prostate cancer.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 22 years+ - NCT03805919Recruiting
Study for men with high inherited risk of prostate cancer
This study is for men who have a known inherited gene change that raises their prostate cancer risk. It aims to help prevent or detect prostate cancer earlier, and you may be asked to undergo MRI and other study steps.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 30–75 - NCT03819101RecruitingPhase 3
Aspirin plus atorvastatin for advanced, treatment-resistant prostate cancer
This trial studies whether daily aspirin and atorvastatin can slow advanced prostate cancer that has continued to grow despite hormone therapy. It may help by reducing cancer growth and inflammation, but you would need to meet several specific safety and medication rules.
OlomoucAges 18 years+ - NCT03821246RecruitingPhase 2
Atezolizumab and other drugs before prostate surgery for high-risk cancer
This Phase 2 trial tests whether giving immunotherapy (atezolizumab) plus another drug before surgery can shrink or control high-risk localized prostate cancer. The goal is to improve outcomes by treating the cancer early, before radical prostatectomy.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT03424850RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Tested different radiation doses for early prostate cancer
This trial studies how safe and effective different high-dose radiation levels are for prostate cancer placed directly in the prostate (HDR brachytherapy). It may help by finding a dose that controls the cancer while keeping side effects acceptable.
St Louis, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT03495427RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
PSMA PET scan to find early prostate cancer spread
This study uses a PSMA PET scan to look for early spread of prostate cancer in men with higher-risk genetic test results (Decipher score above 0.45). It may help doctors spot metastases sooner so treatment decisions can be better targeted.
Tampa, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT02526368RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Scan your prostate with special MRI using pyruvate to find high-grade cancer
This trial tests whether a specialized MRI scan using a pyruvate tracer can better detect high-grade (more aggressive) prostate cancer. It may help doctors find cancer more accurately and guide treatment decisions or targeted follow-up.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT01834001Recruiting
MRI checks how prostate cancer responds to radiation
This study uses MRI scans to see how prostate cancer changes after radiation treatment, especially in the local (prostate-area) response. It may help doctors better judge treatment effectiveness and plan care more precisely.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–120 - NCT02016248Recruiting
Radiation “boost” for higher-risk prostate cancer
This trial studies whether adding a stronger “boost” dose of targeted radiation (SBRT) can better control higher-risk prostate cancer. It may help by increasing radiation coverage to the prostate while trying to limit treatment to surrounding areas.
Fountain Valley, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07871110RecruitingPhase 2
New pill combined with hormone therapy for advanced prostate cancer
This study tests a new pill (TT00420) taken with standard hormone therapy for prostate cancer that has spread and is no longer responding to initial hormone treatment. The goal is to see if the combination can help slow the cancer's growth and is safe.
