Recruiting studies
- 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+ - NCT06325995Recruiting
Short radiation course after prostate surgery for rising PSA
This trial tests a shorter, stronger course of radiation (hypofractionated radiotherapy) given after prostate removal surgery. It may help people whose PSA levels rise again after surgery, aiming to reduce side effects and improve outcomes.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges Any age - NCT03678025RecruitingPhase 3
Standard treatment for metastatic prostate cancer, with or without local treatment
This Phase 3 trial studies whether using the usual medicines for metastatic prostate cancer, plus a definitive local treatment to the prostate, improves outcomes. It may help determine if treating the prostate directly can benefit people whose cancer has not worsened after initial hormone-based treatment.
Gilbert, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT03753243RecruitingPhase 2
Pembrolizumab and hormone blocker before prostate surgery
This Phase 2 trial studies whether pembrolizumab plus a hormone “androgen axis” blocker taken before prostate surgery can improve outcomes for people with high-risk, non-metastatic prostate cancer. It’s designed for patients who are planning prostate removal with an extended lymph node dissection.
Portland, OregonAges 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+ - NCT03920033Recruiting
Radiation schedule for prostate cancer PSA relapse after surgery
This trial compares two different radiation schedules to treat prostate cancer that returned based on rising PSA blood tests after prostatectomy (prostate removal). If you qualify, it may help you and your team choose a radiation approach with the goal of controlling PSA relapse.
SeoulAges 20 years+ - NCT04831970Recruiting
Ablative radiation after prostate surgery for early recurrence
This trial studies a targeted, high-intensity radiation approach given after prostate removal surgery when prostate cancer seems to be coming back locally. It may help control the disease in the pelvis while avoiding treatment that could cause more side effects.
Rozzano, MIAges 18–90 - 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+ - NCT04858880Recruiting
Personalized radiation for PSA rise after prostate surgery
This study tests a tailored (personalized) radiation plan for men whose PSA (“prostate blood test”) rises after prostate surgery but who have no detectable spread on scans. It may help control cancer growth by targeting the right area based on your situation.
JönköpingAges 18 years+ - 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+ - NCT05022914Recruiting
PSMA PET/CT scan for PSA relapse after prostate surgery
This trial looks at using a PSMA PET/CT scan to better re-check cancer activity in men whose PSA has started rising after prostate removal. If you qualify, the scan may help doctors choose the next best treatment step.
FlorenceAges 18 years+ - NCT05038332RecruitingPhase 2
Testing two types of radiation after prostate surgery
This Phase 2 study compares two schedules of radiation treatment after prostate surgery in men whose PSA starts rising again. It aims to see which radiation approach works well while tracking quality of life and safety.
Ann Arbor, MichiganAges 18 years+ - NCT05109910Recruiting
Checking lymph node surgery impact in men having prostate removal
This study looks at whether removing lymph nodes during prostate removal helps predict outcomes in men whose scans do not show spread. It may help improve how doctors decide who benefits from lymph node surgery based on your risk level and scan results.
AmsterdamAges 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+ - 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 - NCT05726292RecruitingPhase 2
Enzalutamide plus relacorilant versus placebo for high-risk prostate cancer
This study tests whether adding relacorilant to enzalutamide (a hormone-blocking treatment) helps control high-risk localized prostate cancer better than enzalutamide plus a dummy pill. It may help prevent the cancer from growing or spreading by targeting a hormone pathway in addition to standard treatment.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT05753566RecruitingPhase 2
Rezvilutamide for prostate cancer PSA rise after prostate surgery
This Phase 2 study tests rezvilutamide in men whose prostate-specific antigen (PSA) starts rising again after the prostate has been removed. It aims to see whether this treatment can help prevent or slow cancer spread after surgery, especially in men without signs of spread on scans.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 40 years+ - NCT05868668Recruiting
Low-intensity shockwave versus wave therapy for erectile and pelvic pain
This trial compares two types of low-intensity wave therapy to see which works better for erectile dysfunction and/or chronic pelvic pain. Participants may benefit if these therapies improve erection quality and reduce pelvic pain.
Cleveland, OhioAges 40 years+ - NCT06056830RecruitingPhase 3
PET scan for high-risk prostate cancer before surgery
This trial uses a special PET scan to find prostate cancer cells before surgery. It may help doctors see where the cancer is located and if it has spread.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT06116851Recruiting
Prostate health, gut bacteria, and cancer risk
This study looks at how your gut bacteria and prostate health may be connected to cancer risk. It may help find new ways to predict or prevent prostate cancer.
TurkuAges 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+ - 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+ - NCT06389786Recruiting
Using a new PET scan to find cancer spread before prostate surgery
This trial tests a special PET/MRI scan that may help doctors see if prostate cancer has spread to nearby lymph nodes before surgery. It could help guide treatment decisions for men with high-risk prostate cancer.
Jacksonville, FloridaAges 30–85 - NCT06442020Recruiting
Shock wave therapy for erectile dysfunction after prostate surgery
This study tests whether low-intensity shock wave therapy can help improve erectile function after robotic prostatectomy for low-risk prostate cancer. It is for men who already had fairly good erections before surgery and want to see if this non-invasive treatment can help their recovery.
