T-reg Function Changes: a Novel Immune Regulatory Effect Underlying Benefit of Statin Use on Lethal Prostate Cancer
This study will evaluate whether simvastatin reduces intraprostatic immunosuppressive microenvironment through YAP-mediated T-reg dysfunction, and increases intraprostatic anti-tumor immune response in men recently diagnosed with localized prostate cancer electing to receive prostatectomy for their care. Half the men will be randomized to receive statins for 8 weeks prior to their …
Prostate SABR With Intra-Prostatic SABR Boost
Stereotactic Ablative Radiation (SABR/SBRT) will be prescribed to a dose of 35 Gy in 5 fractions, once weekly to prostate with a simultaneous intra-prostatic boost to the MR detected nodule up to 50Gy. The pelvic lymph nodes and seminal vesicles will also receive 25 Gy in 5 weekly fractions.
PROMISE Registry: A Prostate Cancer Registry of Outcomes and Germline Mutations for Improved Survival and Treatment Effectiveness
PROMISE aims to create a comprehensive nationwide registry of prostate cancer patients with germline pathogenic variants by prospectively screening approximately 5,000 subjects with a confirmed prostate cancer diagnosis, either through tissue biopsy, PSA greater than 100 ng/dL and/or radiographic evidence of disease and receiving systemic therapy for prostate cancer. Patients …
Prevalence of the c.853delT Mutation of the HOXB13 Gene in Prostate Cancer in Martinique
In Martinique, prostate cancer incidence rates are nowadays among the highest worldwide with a high incidence of early-onset and familial forms. We identified a rare heterozygous germline variant c.853delT (p.Ter285Lysfs) rs77179853, reported only among patients of African ancestry with a minor allele frequency of 3.2%. We search to estimate the …
Pragmatic Trial of Metformin for Glucose Intolerance or Increased BMI in Prostate Cancer Patients
Metformin is used widely in the treatment of type 2 diabetes. It has off-label indications for use in the prevention of diabetes and in hyperinsulinar obesity. In medical practices, the implementation of metformin for these off-label indications is variable, often at the level of the provider. Multiple retrospective investigations have …
WALNUTS for POWER: Polyphenols, Omega-3 Fatty Acids, Weight Loss, and EneRgy
This is a randomized control trial testing the effect of walnut supplementation on prostate cancer progression in 50 men with biopsy confirmed prostate cancer and planning to undergo RP. Patients consented to the study will be randomly assigned to either continue their usual diets (control arm) or to the walnut …
Using Rectal Hydrogel Spacer for Salvage SABR in Prostate Cancer
There are several single institutional series that have reported their experience with salvage radiotherapy options that include EBRT, LDR and HDR brachytherapy. Gastrointestinal (GI) toxicity with salvage radiotherapy range between14-58%, respectively for patients undergoing re-irradiation. There is a concern for an increased risk of fistula development in these patients who …
PyL in Patients With High Risk and Biochemically Recurrent Prostate Cancer
The standard of care imaging of prostate cancer metastases recommended by the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN), CT of the chest/abdomen/pelvis and bone scan, may be suboptimal. PyL is a novel PET tracer designed to detect prostate specific membrane antigen (PSMA) expressed on prostate cancer cells. PyL PET/CT may provide …
Focal HDR Brachytherapy Boost to Stereotactic Radiotherapy
To determine if fBT+sRT is superior to standard care in terms of urinary toxicity by having fewer patients experience a minimal important decline (MID) in urinary irritation/obstructive QoL
Early Prostate Cancer Recurrence With PSMA PET Positive Unilateral Pelvic Lesion(s)
Significant advances in molecular nuclear medicine imaging in prostate cancer have been achieved in recent years. In particular, the introduction of prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) -based tracers has significantly influenced diagnostic imaging of prostate. If cancer recurs after surgical removal of the prostate, targeted PSMA PET (positron emission tomography) can …
