This trial tests a new way of delivering radiation for prostate cancer that has come back after prostate surgery. It may help control the cancer by targeting the “prostate bed” area or nearby lymph nodes where it returned.
Rochester, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT06052683Recruiting
Comparing radiation side effects for low-risk prostate cancer
This trial compares two types of radiation therapy (SBRT and LDR brachytherapy) for men with low-risk or favorable intermediate-risk prostate cancer. The goal is to see which treatment causes fewer side effects.
Québec, QuebecAges 18 years+ - NCT06059118RecruitingPhase 2
High-dose testosterone and a drug for advanced prostate cancer
This trial tests a combination of high-dose testosterone with enzalutamide and difluoromethylornithine (DFMO) for men whose prostate cancer has spread and stopped responding to standard hormone therapy. It aims to see if this approach can shrink tumors or slow the cancer's growth.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT06145633RecruitingPhase 2
Vorinostat and 177Lu-PSMA-617 for PSMA-Low prostate cancer
This trial tests two drugs: vorinostat (a pill that may make cancer cells easier to target) and 177Lu-PSMA-617 (a radioactive drug that seeks out prostate cancer cells). It is for men with a specific type of advanced prostate cancer that has stopped responding to hormone therapy and shows low levels of PSMA on a PET scan.
Seattle, WashingtonAges Any age - NCT06165302Recruiting
Exercise study for men with advanced prostate cancer
This trial tests whether a structured exercise program can help men with metastatic prostate cancer who are on hormone therapy. It looks at changes in cancer cells and overall well-being.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18–80 - NCT06171139Recruiting
Genetic counseling tool for Black men with prostate cancer
This study tests a new tool to help Black or African American men with prostate cancer understand genetic testing options. The goal is to improve counseling and decision-making about tumor genetic testing.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06190899RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing gedatolisib plus darolutamide in advanced prostate cancer
This trial tests a new combination of two drugs, gedatolisib and darolutamide, in men with prostate cancer that has spread and stopped responding to hormone therapy. The goal is to see if the combination can help control the cancer when standard treatments have stopped working.
Detroit, MichiganAges 18 years+ - NCT06202248Recruiting
DaRT radiation therapy for prostate cancer that has returned
This trial tests a new type of radiation using tiny alpha-emitting seeds placed directly into the tumor. It is for people whose prostate cancer came back in the gland after initial treatment but hasn't spread elsewhere.
HaifaAges 18–120 - NCT06205316RecruitingPhase 3
Radiation therapy for returning or limited-spread prostate cancer
This trial compares two types of radiation therapy for prostate cancer that has come back or spread to a few places after surgery. The goal is to see which radiation schedule works better with fewer side effects.
Scottsdale, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06220435Recruiting
Radiation therapy for very high-risk localized prostate cancer
This trial tests radiation therapy for men with very high-risk prostate cancer that hasn't spread. It aims to see if targeting the tumor with radiation can help control the cancer in this highest risk group.
LundAges 18 years+ - NCT06223295Recruiting
Focal therapy for medium-risk prostate cancer
This trial tests a gentler treatment called focal therapy that targets only the part of the prostate with cancer. It's for men whose prostate cancer has a Gleason score of 7, low PSA, and hasn't spread outside the prostate.
Nijmegen, GelderlandAges 45 years+ - NCT06242470RecruitingPhase 1
Study of MGC026 for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug called MGC026 that targets a protein called B7-H3 on cancer cells, aiming to shrink or slow different advanced solid tumors. It is an early-phase study to find the right dose and check safety.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06305832RecruitingPhase 2
Salvage radiation plus hormone therapy with or without rezvilutamide for rising PSA
This trial tests whether adding a new oral hormone blocker (rezvilutamide) to standard salvage radiation and hormone therapy can better control prostate cancer that has come back (rising PSA) after surgery.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 40 years+ - NCT06306612Recruiting
Surgery plus hormone therapy for advanced prostate cancer
This trial tests whether removing the prostate (surgery) plus standard hormone therapy and chemotherapy can help men whose prostate cancer has spread to many places in the body. It is for men who have not yet had treatment for their cancer.
