Prostate cancer care in UK prisons
Part of Cancer, Kidney & urinary clinical trials.
This study looks at the health records of men in UK prisons who have been diagnosed with prostate cancer. The goal is to understand how these men are diagnosed and what their cancer looks like at diagnosis, which could help improve care for this group.

This study compares different follow-up approaches after curative treatment for early-stage prostate cancer. It aims to find the best way to monitor patients after treatment, which may help improve quality of life and reduce unnecessary tests.
This trial looks at how inherited risk (family history or gene findings) relates to screening and treatment for prostate cancer. If you qualify, you may be offered prostate screening tests and follow-up to see how well risk information predicts next steps.
This trial studies how well “active surveillance” works for men with prostate cancer who are considered higher risk because of family history or genetics. It aims to safely monitor the cancer and decide the best timing for treatment if needed, while tracking side effects and follow-up success.
This study is a worldwide registry that collects health information from men with advanced prostate cancer. It may help researchers better understand disease patterns and outcomes, which can guide future treatments.
This study collects information from men with prostate cancer to better understand how different treatments work in real life. It follows patients when they start a new treatment and can help improve future care.
This trial enrolls adults who are being evaluated or treated for possible or confirmed prostate cancer and allows researchers to collect prostate tissue. It may help improve understanding of prostate cancer over the course of diagnosis and standard care.
