Overview

This study is an observational retrospective/ prospective study with diagnosed low/intermediate risk (no-surgery) & high risk (surgery) prostate cancer that are eligible and willing to undergo standard of care (SOC) assessment, annually along with biopsies, bio-fluid collection. Participants will obtain genomic and histological evaluation on their biopsied samples. Study follows SOC collection with additional body fluid collection (blood, urine). Biopsy/surgery will not require additional sample collection

Eligibility

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Prostate cancer patients who had received primary diagnosis at Moffitt or outside the cancer center with available records (radiology, pathology, access to samples).
  • No-Surgery (Intermediate risk) group: patients diagnosed with pre-biopsy mpMRI, blood plasma: the biopsy must consist of a pathological diagnosis with a Gleason pattern score.
  • Surgery (High risk) group: patients who had radical prostatectomy (RP) with (or with-out) mpMR imaging, bio fluids available for research will be accrued for this group. We follow the NCCN recommendations for high-risk (Unfavorable intermediate risk or High-risk) groups inclusion and follow-up criteria (58, 89, 90).
  • ≥ 4 ng/ml and ≤ 20 ng/ml and PSA ≤ 10 ng/ml (for late disease), within 3 months of study enrollment.
  • Age 35 through 85 years.
  • Zubrod/ECOG performance status <2;
  • Ability to understand and willingness to sign a written informed consent document.
  • Patients who agree to have a multiparametric MRI with targeted/template biopsy.
  • Patients must agree to fill out the longitudinal psychosocial questionnaires assessing health related quality of life.
  • Availability of Bio-samples (blood plasma, urine) for exosomal, proteomic, genomic and pathology (H&E slides, IHC slides).
  • Quantity of bio-samples; Blood, Urine, tissue sections (including FFPE) for each region of interest.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Subject is not a candidate for multiparametric MRI with contrast. Some reasons may include (but are not limited to): renal insufficiency, foreign body or pacemakers.
  • No prior pelvic radiotherapy
  • No prior surgery to the prostate, other than transurethral procedures for benign prostatic hyperplasia (e.g., transurethral resection, green light laser treatment)
  • No concurrent, active malignancy, other than non-metastatic skin cancer of any type, superficial bladder cancer, or early-stage chronic lymphocytic leukemia (well-differentiated small cell lymphocytic lymphoma) or > Bilateral hip replacement.

FAQs

Learn more about clinical trials

What is a clinical trial?

A clinical trial is a study designed to test specific interventions or treatments' effectiveness and safety, paving the way for new, innovative healthcare solutions.

Why should I take part in a clinical trial?

Participating in a clinical trial provides early access to potentially effective treatments and directly contributes to the healthcare advancements that benefit us all.

How long does a clinical trial take place?

The duration of clinical trials varies. Some trials last weeks, some years, depending on the phase and intention of the trial.

Do I get compensated for taking part in clinical trials?

Compensation varies per trial. Some offer payment or reimbursement for time and travel, while others may not.

How safe are clinical trials?

Clinical trials follow strict ethical guidelines and protocols to safeguard participants' health. They are closely monitored and safety reviewed regularly.
