Recruiting studies in California
- 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+ - NCT06384222RecruitingPhase 2
MRI scan to monitor response to abiraterone before prostate surgery
This trial tests whether a special MRI scan can show how well the drug abiraterone works against high-risk prostate cancer before surgery. If you have high-risk prostate cancer that hasn't spread, you might be able to take abiraterone for a few months and then have a prostatectomy, with the MRI helping your doctor see the drug's effect.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06632977RecruitingPhase 2
Matching targeted treatments to your prostate cancer's genetics
This trial is testing whether matching your cancer's specific genetic changes to a targeted treatment can help control metastatic prostate cancer that has stopped responding to standard hormone therapy and chemotherapy. You may receive a drug, a radioactive treatment, or a combination based on your tumor's molecular profile.
Chico, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06942104RecruitingPhase 1
New imaging agent for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new imaging agent (18F-TRX) to see if it can better detect cancer spread in people with advanced solid tumors. It is designed for patients with specific cancers like high-grade brain tumors, advanced kidney cancer, or prostate cancer that has stopped responding to hormone therapy.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06288113RecruitingPhase 2
Re-treatment with 177Lu-PSMA-617 for prostate cancer
This trial tests if a second round of a targeted radiation therapy (177Lu-PSMA-617) can help men whose prostate cancer has returned after a successful first treatment. It is for men whose cancer has stopped responding to hormone therapy and chemotherapy, and whose PSA levels have risen again after a prior good response to this drug.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges Any age - NCT06470243RecruitingPhase 3
Adding carboplatin to cabazitaxel for advanced prostate cancer
This study tests whether adding a chemotherapy drug called carboplatin to another chemotherapy called cabazitaxel works better than cabazitaxel alone for men with advanced prostate cancer that has spread and no longer responds to hormone therapy. All participants must have already had docetaxel chemotherapy.
Long Beach, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06526299RecruitingPhase 2
Higher dose of targeted radiation for prostate cancer with low PSMA levels
This trial tests a higher dose of a radioactive drug (177Lu-PSMA-617) for men whose prostate cancer has spread and does not produce much of a protein called PSMA on scans. The goal is to see if a stronger dose can work better than the standard dose.
Sylmar, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07185165RecruitingPhase 2
PET Scan for Prostate Cancer Recurrence After Focal Therapy
This study uses a special PET/CT scan (Flotufolastat F 18) to look for leftover or returning prostate cancer after you've had a targeted treatment called focal therapy. The goal is to see if the scan can help find cancer that might need further treatment.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18–90 - NCT04763980Recruiting
Health coaching to help Black men get prostate germline genetic testing
This study tests a community health coach to help Black men with prostate cancer understand and access genetic testing that looks for inherited cancer risk. It may help you talk with your care team about testing and reduce barriers to getting results.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07052214RecruitingPhase 3
PSMA PET plus MRI to find prostate cancer
This trial tests if combining a PSMA PET scan with an MRI can better detect clinically significant prostate cancer than MRI alone. It may help men who have not had a prostate biopsy before and have certain risk factors.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04765150Recruiting
AI helps classify prostate cancer using MRI images
This trial studies whether a computer (AI) can better sort MRI results to improve prostate cancer diagnosis or classification. You may benefit by getting your multi-part MRI looked at in a new, more precise way, while helping researchers refine decision-making.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06067295Recruiting
Long-term study of advanced prostate cancer
This study follows men with advanced prostate cancer that has spread to other parts of the body. It aims to learn more about how the disease and treatments affect patients over time, so doctors can improve care.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05919264RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
FOG-001 for advanced solid tumors with certain gene changes
This trial tests a new drug, FOG-001, alone or with other treatments, for people with advanced solid tumors that have specific changes in the WNT pathway genes. It aims to see if the drug can shrink tumors or slow their growth.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07218718Recruiting
Cold popsicles for taste changes during prostate cancer chemo
This study tests whether sucking on popsicles during chemotherapy can prevent or reduce taste changes. It is for people with prostate cancer who are receiving a specific type of chemotherapy called taxane for the first time.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05176483RecruitingPhase 1
New drug combinations for advanced solid tumors

What taking part in a prostate carcinoma study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
Our fit check is a helpful first read, not a decision. The study team makes the final call after reviewing your health history.
