Recruiting studies
- 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+ - NCT01913106RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing valacyclovir with an added cancer gene in prostate radiation
This Phase 1/2 study tests whether adding a cancer-targeting gene therapy (HSV-tk) and the antiviral medicine valacyclovir to brachytherapy can better treat recurrent prostate cancer in the prostate area. It may help by making cancer cells more vulnerable to the treatment.
Houston, TexasAges Any age - NCT00949819Recruiting
Active surveillance study for localized prostate cancer
This trial studies a “watchful waiting” approach, where doctors closely monitor certain prostate cancers with regular checkups and repeat biopsies. It may help people avoid or delay treatment side effects while watching for signs the cancer needs treatment.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 30–85 - NCT01492972RecruitingPhase 3
Lighter radiation, with or without hormone suppression
This Phase 3 trial tests whether giving a smaller amount of radiation (“hypo-fractionated” means fewer, larger sessions) can work as well as standard approaches for intermediate-risk prostate cancer. It also compares adding hormone therapy (“androgen suppression”) to radiation versus using radiation alone.
Scottsdale, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT02102477Recruiting
Surgery or radiation for prostate cancer in the pelvis
This trial compares surgery versus radiation for men with locally advanced prostate cancer that has not spread to distant sites. It aims to see which treatment works better and is easier to manage for people like you.
AalborgAges 18–75 - NCT02391051RecruitingPhase 2
Targeted radiation for low-risk prostate cancer
This trial tests a focused form of radiation placed inside the prostate to treat only the cancer area in people with low-risk prostate cancer. It aims to control the cancer while limiting treatment to a smaller area.
ErlangenAges 18 years+ - NCT02869594Recruiting
Prostate cancer database study
This study collects information from people with prostate cancer to build a database. Researchers use it to better understand prostate cancer and support future research.
Marseille, Bouches-du RhôneAges 18–95 - NCT02724670Recruiting
MRI-guided radiation for prostate cancer patients
This study tests radiation treatment planned and guided using MRI scans (“image-guided radiotherapy”) for men with prostate cancer who are aiming for a cure. If you qualify, you may receive radiation with more precise targeting using MRI to help deliver treatment accurately.
TübingenAges 18 years+ - NCT02573636Recruiting
Testing genes in prostate cancer after radiation relapse
This study looks at specific gene changes (TMPRSS2-ERG fusion and PTEN deletion) in people whose prostate cancer returned after radiation. It aims to understand who may have a higher risk of relapse and help predict outcomes after salvage or radical radiation.
Chicoutimi, QuebecAges 18 years+ - NCT02705846Recruiting
Study tracks outcomes in men with inherited prostate cancer risks
This study looks at how prostate cancer diagnoses and treatments turn out over time. It compares men who carry rare inherited gene changes that raise prostate cancer risk with men who do not, to better understand which treatments and outcomes may differ.
Sutton, SurreyAges 18 years+ - NCT02706561Recruiting
Helping men stick with erectile rehab after prostate surgery
This study tests a program to help men follow sexual (erection) rehabilitation after prostate cancer surgery. It may help improve or maintain erectile functioning by supporting the right rehab steps in the months after surgery.
New York, New YorkAges 21 years+ - NCT02871726Recruiting
Robot-assisted ultrasound biopsy of the prostate
This trial tests a robot-assisted method to take prostate tissue samples using an ultrasound probe placed through the rectum. It may help patients and doctors get clearer biopsy results when there are early warning signs of prostate problems, before a cancer diagnosis is confirmed.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 45–75 - NCT03258320RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Testing chemo plus surgery for certain prostate cancers
This trial compares different chemotherapy drugs given around the time of surgery to see which approach works best for men with certain locally advanced prostate cancer. It may help find a better way to control the cancer after surgery.
Qingdao, ShandongAges 40–75 - NCT07590934RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing new cancer drugs for advanced prostate cancer
This study tests new anti-cancer drugs for men whose prostate cancer has spread and stopped responding to hormone therapy. The goal is to find treatments that work when standard drugs no longer help.
Encino, CaliforniaAges 18–99 - NCT02526797Enrolling by invitation
MRI scan study for men on active surveillance
This trial tests how a special MRI scan (with multiple measurements) may help men with low-risk prostate cancer who are monitoring it closely instead of treating right away. It may help doctors better understand the cancer’s status during active surveillance.
HerlevAges 18–75 - NCT00102544Enrolling by invitation
Tracking Devices to Find Abnormalities During Medical Procedures
This study tests technology that uses imaging scans to help doctors locate and reach abnormalities during surgical or interventional procedures. The goal is to make these image-guided procedures more accurate and safer for patients.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–120 - NCT01961713Recruiting
Blood test study during prostate surgery for localized prostate cancer
This trial studies prostate cancer cells in the blood (“circulating tumor cells”) while you undergo planned prostate surgery. It may help doctors better understand prostate cancer and how it behaves early, which could guide future treatment decisions.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT00588185Recruiting
PET scans to track prostate cancer using two tracers
This trial uses special PET imaging to see where progressive prostate cancer is in the body—one tracer to look at general sugar use and one designed to detect testosterone-related activity. It may help doctors better map cancer spread so future treatment planning can be more targeted.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges Any age - NCT07407283RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of SHR-4394 combination therapy for prostate cancer
This trial tests a new drug called SHR-4394 combined with standard hormone therapy for men with prostate cancer that has spread to other parts of the body. The goal is to see if this combination can help control the cancer.
Chengdu, SichuanAges 18–85 - NCT07417449Recruiting
Dutasteride before prostate laser surgery and recovery outcomes
This study looks at whether taking dutasteride for at least 6 months before prostate laser surgery affects surgery results and recovery. It includes men having a specific type of prostate surgery called HoLEP.
Ankara, UniversitelerAges 40–80 - NCT07432360Recruiting
Finding prostate cancer with advanced MRI and tissue analysis
This trial uses advanced MRI scans and detailed tissue analysis to better detect prostate cancer. It is for people with confirmed prostate cancer who are already scheduled for prostate removal surgery.
São PauloAges 18 years+ - NCT07441889RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
HER2-targeting immune cells for metastatic breast and prostate cancer
This trial tests a new treatment using specially designed immune cells that target HER2, a protein found on some cancer cells. It is for people with metastatic breast or prostate cancer that has worsened after prior treatments.
Charlottesville, VirginiaAges 18 years+ - NCT07451795RecruitingPhase 2
SHR-1701 with targeted radiation for advanced prostate cancer
This trial tests a new drug called SHR-1701 combined with a precise type of radiation (SBRT) for men with prostate cancer that has spread and is no longer responding to hormone therapy. The goal is to see if this combination can help control the cancer.
FujianAges 18–80 - NCT07460843Recruiting
Comparing two types of prostate biopsy for diagnosis
This study compares two methods of taking prostate biopsy samples (TB+PB vs TB+6SB) to see which is better at diagnosing prostate cancer. It is for men who have a suspicious spot on their MRI and meet certain PSA or exam criteria.
