This trial tests whether giving hormone therapy (androgen deprivation therapy) before surgery can improve outcomes for men with high-risk prostate cancer. You will receive a special PSMA PET/CT scan to see how the cancer responds.
Miami, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT05381103RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
PSMA scan to plan prostate surgery and help protect erections
This trial tests whether using a PSMA-PET scan before prostatectomy can guide surgery in a way that helps preserve sexual function. It may be most helpful if you have certain kinds of prostate cancer and want to keep erections after surgery.
Indianapolis, IndianaAges 40–80 - NCT07431008Recruiting
Safety follow-up for Cellgram-ED in erectile dysfunction
This trial is a follow-up study for people who received the experimental cell therapy (Cellgram-ED) in a previous trial for erectile dysfunction after prostate removal. It checks on your long-term safety and how you are doing.
SeoulAges 19–80 - NCT05000827Recruiting
PSMA PET scan to guide lymph node surgery in prostatectomy
This study tests whether a special prostate scan called PSMA PET/CT can help doctors decide which pelvic lymph nodes to remove during prostate surgery. It may improve who needs lymph node surgery by using scan results to guide the operation.
Nijmegen, GelderlandAges 18 years+ - NCT07349186Recruiting
Blood pressure monitoring during robot prostate surgery
This trial compares two ways to measure blood pressure during robot-assisted prostate surgery: a cuff on the arm (oscillometric) vs. a tiny tube in an artery (intraarterial). It aims to see if the cuff method is just as reliable, which could make monitoring simpler and less invasive.
Hamburg, Free and Hanseatic City of HamburgAges 18 years+ - NCT07334275Recruiting
Detecting leftover cancer cells after prostate removal
This trial tests a new way to find microscopic cancer cells (minimal residual disease) in the blood after prostate surgery. If successful, it could help doctors decide if additional treatment is needed.
NijmegenAges 18 years+ - NCT07324798Recruiting
Adaptive Radiation Therapy for Genitourinary Cancers
This trial tests a more precise form of radiation therapy (adaptive radiotherapy) for people with urological cancers. It aims to adjust the radiation beam in real time to better target the tumor and protect healthy tissues, which may lead to fewer side effects.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT05169112RecruitingPhase 3
Hormone therapy to prevent prostate cancer coming back
This trial studies whether hormone therapy (also called ADT) after prostate surgery lowers the chance that prostate cancer will return. It targets people with very low PSA after surgery but with a higher predicted risk of recurrence.
Halifax, Nova ScotiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06894628Recruiting
Genomics and extreme radiation for recurrent prostate cancer
This study looks at how well a very short course of high-dose radiation works for prostate cancer that has come back after surgery. It aims to learn if genetics can help predict who benefits most from this type of radiation.
RomaAges Any age - NCT07247175RecruitingPhase 2
Testing force feedback in robotic prostate cancer surgery
This trial is looking at whether a new force-feedback feature in the da Vinci robotic system helps surgeons learn and operate more safely when removing the prostate for prostate cancer.
SoeulAges 19 years+ - NCT07208240RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
PSMA-targeted radiation before prostate removal for advanced cancer
This trial tests giving a radioactive drug (PSMA-targeted) before surgery for prostate cancer that has spread locally but not to other parts of the body. The goal is to see if it helps lower the risk of the cancer coming back.
Petah TikvaAges 18 years+ - NCT06945315RecruitingPhase 3
Nerve-Sparing Surgery Guided by Micro-Ultrasound
This study tests whether using a special ultrasound tool during prostate cancer surgery helps protect the nerves that control erections. If you have good erectile function and are scheduled for nerve-sparing prostate removal, this trial may be a good fit for you.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT07182279RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Internal radiation before prostate surgery for high-risk cancer
This trial tests a treatment approach for newly diagnosed, high-risk prostate cancer. You would receive a short course of internal radiation (high-dose-rate brachytherapy) before surgery to remove your prostate. The goal is to see if this combination is safe and works better than surgery alone.
Houston, TexasAges 40 years+ - NCT04833426RecruitingPhase 3
Testosterone levels around prostate surgery and recovery outcomes
This trial studies whether testosterone levels before and around radical prostate surgery affect cancer control and sexual/physical recovery. It may help doctors understand who benefits from testosterone replacement and who should not.
AmsterdamAges 18 years+ - NCT07163910RecruitingPhase 2
Homoharringtonine plus hormone therapy before prostate surgery
This trial tests whether adding a drug called homoharringtonine (a type of chemotherapy) to standard hormone therapy before prostate surgery can improve outcomes for men with certain stages of prostate cancer. It's for men who haven't had any previous treatment and plan to have their prostate removed.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18–85 - NCT07162194Recruiting
Testing AI for reading prostate MRI scans
This study uses an artificial intelligence (AI) program to read MRI scans of the prostate and compare its findings with those of expert radiologists. The goal is to see if the AI can detect prostate cancer as accurately as the human experts, which might help in future diagnosis and treatment planning.
