HOW THIS WORKS: most trials in our database only care about some (not all) of the questions. When you answer a question, we look to see which trials in our database consider that question relevant. If your answer matches what any of those trials are looking for, we increase those trials' "relevance" scores by 1 in the table of results. If your answer doesn't match what a trial is looking for, then that trial will not be displayed. The best way to narrow down the results below is by answering all of the questions.

A Randomized Phase II Study Comparing Sequential High Dose Testosterone and Enzalutamide to Enzalutamide Alone in Asymptomatic Men With Castration Resistant Metastatic Prostate Cancer (J2060)
read more
Asymptomatic men without pain due to prostate cancer progressing with metastatic castrate resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) after treatment with combination or sequential ADT (androgen deprivation therapy, a type of hormonal therapy) + Abiraterone (Zytiga, a type of hormonal therapy) will be treated on a randomized, open label study to determine if sequential treatment with high dose testosterone (a hormone) and Enzalutamide (Xtandi, a type of hormonal therapy) will improve progression free survival (PFS) versus continuous Enzalutamide alone as standard therapy.
This study has 2 arms:
Arm A: Enzalutamide alone
Patients randomized to Arm A will receive continuous therapy with standard dose Enzalutamide 160 mg taken by mouth (orally or po) daily.
Arm B: Testosterone + Enzalutamide
Patients randomized to Arm B will receive an intramuscular (IM) injection with testosterone cypionate or testosterone enanthate at a dose of 400 mg every 56 days, followed by Enzalutamide 160 mg taken by mouth daily.

PROMISE Registry: A Prostate Cancer Registry of Outcomes and Germline Mutations for Improved Survival and Treatment Effectiveness
read more
PROMISE aims to create a comprehensive nationwide registry of prostate cancer patients with germline pathogenic variants (targetable mutations) by 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 at all stages of disease will be welcome to participate in the PROMISE Registry.
Participants will be recruited and screened over a five-year period. Study participants will be asked to provide a saliva sample to be tested for germline cancer risk variants through Color Health. If the results identify a pathogenic or likely pathogenic variant, an appointment with a genetic counselor from Color Health will be scheduled to discuss the results.
Participants will complete a baseline demographic survey that includes self-reported health history, family history of cancer and standardized patient reported outcome (PRO) measures.
PROMISE Registry staff will request medical records from the participant's cancer care provider(s) for the purpose of obtaining clinical data.
Participants will receive bi-annual newsletters offering information on new developments in treatment and research opportunities, including clinical trials, associated with genetic variants.
Eligible participants (those with target germline mutations) will be followed every 6 months to obtain updated health records data and patient-reported outcomes data. Participants will be followed for a minimum of 15 years.
The PROMISE registry will help identify prostate cancer patients with pathogenic variants to learn more about how these variants affect patient outcomes. Ultimately, we hope to help patients learn more about their disease and the treatments that they may derive the most benefit from, including the germline genetic biomarker-based clinical trials they may be eligible for.
There is no treatment given as part of this study – it is a registry only.

A Study of 7-days Water-only Fasting in Patients With Metastatic Prostate Cancer
read more
Activating the immune system to kill cancer cells is a promising therapeutic strategy for some patients with cancer. Unfortunately, current immune-targeting treatments do not work for patients with prostate cancer. In animal models of cancer, fasting can reprogram the body's metabolism and immune cell function to help immune cells kill cancer cells. Seven days of water-only fasting is safe and feasible in healthy adults. The purpose of this study is to determine whether 7 days of water-only fasting or a very low-calorie diet is safe and feasible for patients with metastatic prostate cancer. This will help the investigators develop future studies to test whether incorporating periods of fasting or very low calorie diets into treatment plans for prostate cancer can improve outcomes from this disease.
This study does NOT provide any treatment. The study has 1 arm:
Arm A: Fasting
7-day water-only fast followed by a 3-day refeeding. Patients will be monitored by regular labs and a clinic visit on Day 3. Patients may deviate to a ketogenic very low-calorie diet at any time between Day 1 and Day 7.

Whole-Food Plant-Based Diet (WFPBD) to Control Weight and Metabo-Inflammation in Overweight/Obese Men With Prostate Cancer Receiving Androgen Deprivation Therapy (ADT) (J2276)
read more
The study is comparing the effect on weight of providing home-delivered whole-food, plant-based meals versus standard, general nutritional counseling to men with prostate cancer on androgen-deprivation therapy (ADT, hormonal therapy).
Prostate cancer is the most common cancer diagnosis for men in the United States. For patients with advanced or recurrent disease, ADT has is the cornerstone of systemic treatment. Overall, almost half of prostate cancer patients will undergo ADT at some point during their treatment. Unfortunately, ADT has metabolic side effects, including weight gain, central adiposity (fat around your middle/stomach area), and insulin resistance. This study is a multi-site randomized phase II trial comparing a home-delivered whole food, plant-based diet (WFPBD) with specialized behavioral coaching to standard dietary intervention with general nutritional counseling to assess the efficacy of a WFPBD in promoting weight loss in overweight/obese men receiving ADT. The home-delivered WFPBD will be for 28 days with 12 meals a week followed by 28 days with 6 meals a week; followed by self-prepared WFPBD for 18 weeks (for a total of 26 weeks).
The study hypothesis is that a WFPBD will decrease body weight and decrease systemic metabo-inflammation (inflammation caused by excessive weight) in overweight/obese men (BMI > 27) with prostate cancer receiving ADT. Secondary objectives will be to assess the effects of a WFPBD on adiposity, markers of inflammation, and fecal microbiota (gut or GI tract bacteria) that may contribute to prostate cancer progression; to assess the effects of a WFPBD on quality of life; and to assess the durability of any observed effect of the intervention after cessation of the meal-delivery service.
This study has 2 treatment arms:
Arm A: Whole-food, Plant-Based Diet
Pre-packaged, plant-based meals (prepared by Plantable) will be delivered weekly to participants' homes for 8 weeks. Meals are made with whole ingredients including whole grains, vegetables, legumes, nuts and seeds. Added sugar, animal-based products, refined grains, and processed foods are not used in any meal. Participants will be coached by phone calls, texts, emails, and the app throughout the intervention to prepare meals in accordance with the diet. Participants will have access to a Registered Dietitian. During the first 4 weeks, 12 meals/week will be provided to participants; followed by 6 meals/week for the next 4 weeks; followed by 18 weeks where participants will continue to receive coaching but will be expected to make all their own whole-food, plant-based meals using Plantable's assistance.
Arm B: General Nutritional Counseling
All study participants will receive consult with a Registered Dietitian at the Baseline visit and visit 1 study assessments. After visit 1, study participants assigned to the general nutritional counseling arm will receive an additional in-person or telehealth consultation with a Registered Dietitian that will consist of identification and counseling to improve diet quality and achieve a healthy body weight consistent with American Cancer Society guidelines.
Study participants in the control group will continue to receive general nutritional counseling and education with weekly scheduled telephone consultations with a Registered Dietitian for the first 4 weeks of the study period. For the remainder of the study period, they will receive counseling and education from Registered Dietitians via monthly scheduled phone calls.

A Phase 2 Study of Neoadjuvant PARP Inhibition Followed by Radical Prostatectomy in Patients With Unfavorable Intermediate-Risk or High-Risk Prostate Cancer With BRCA1/2 Gene Alterations (NePtune)
read more
Phase 2 open-label, single-arm clinical trial evaluating the efficacy and safety of neoadjuvant olaparib (Lynparza, a type of targeted therapy) + LHRH agonist (a type of hormonal therapy) administered for 6 months prior to radical prostatectomy (RP, surgery) in men with unfavorable intermediate-risk or high-risk localized prostate cancer. All patients must have confirmed germline or somatic BRCA1/2 gene mutation. Germline and somatic mutation testing will be performed as part of commercially available CLIA assays and will be validated on a uniform platform centrally for all patients.
All subjects will receive treatment:
Olaparib + LHRH agonist
300 mg of olaparib taken orally (by mouth, PO) twice a day for 6 cycles (approximately 6 months). There are 30 days in a cycle.
Olaparib will be taken with an LHRH agonist (leuprolide, triptorelin, or goserlin). This choice of therapy will be taken for a total of 180 days per institutional standards.
After 6 cycles of neoadjuvant therapy, patients will undergo a radical prostatectomy (RP). After RP, patients will be followed for testosterone recovery and PSA progression.

Phase II Trial Targeting Gut Bacterial Androgen Production to Reverse Therapeutic Resistance to Abiraterone in Patients With Metastatic Prostate Cancer
read more
The purpose of this study is to test whether giving dexamethasone (a type of steroid) with or without metronidazole (a type of antifungal medication) in combination with abiraterone (a type of hormonal therapy) could help reverse resistance to abiraterone for patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). Abiraterone and prednisone (AA/P, prednisone is also a type of steroid) is a second-line therapy for mCRPC given when first-line androgen deprivation therapy fails. However, resistance to AA/P can develop. The investigators do not know exactly how cancer becomes resistant, but there is evidence that suggests it could be due to androgen production by the bacteria in your gut (gut microbiome). This study is focused on the gut microbiome as a source of androgen production that could cause AA/P resistance in mCRPC.
This study has 2 treatment arms:
Arm A: Abiraterone + Dexamethasone
Abiraterone acetate 1000mg given orally (by mouth, PO) once daily PLUS Dexamethasone 0.5mg given orally once daily.
Arm B: Abiraterone + Dexamethasone + metronidazole
Abiraterone acetate 1000mg given orally (by mouth, PO) once daily PLUS Dexamethasone 0.5mg given orally once daily PLUS Metronidazole 1500mg given orally once daily.

Phase II Trial of Radium-223 in Biochemically Recurrent Prostate Cancer
read more
Some men who have been treated for localized prostate cancer with surgery or radiation still show signs of the disease in their blood. This is called biochemically recurrent prostate cancer. Radium-223 is a small molecule. It uses radiation to kill cancer cells and improves survival in advanced prostate cancer. Researchers want to see if it can treat prostate cancer and induced immune changes earlier in the disease when the cancer is only detectable by prostate specific antigen (PSA) in the blood.
Androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) and surveillance are treatment options for prostate cancer patients with biochemical progression after localized therapy with either definitive radiation or surgery (biochemically recurrent prostate cancer or BRPC). A primary goal in these patients is to prevent morbidity from their cancer that results from disease progression and metastatic disease on conventional imaging.
Radium-223 has demonstrated the ability to improve survival in men with symptomatic metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) with a manageable toxicity profile, particularly in patients who have not yet received docetaxel.
Radiation, even at low doses can impact immune recognition and immune cell killing of cancer cells. Recent findings suggest that radium-223 increase the killing of prostate cancer cells.
Radium-223 may present an alternative option for patients with BRPC that is not associated with substantial toxicity (as seen with ADT) and may have a lasting effect due to its potential effect on the immune system and/or the bone microenvironment.
This study has 1 treatment arm:
Treatment: All patients will receive radium-223 treatment once every 4 weeks for up to 6 cycles. 18F-NaF PET scans will be used to assess response in bone.

Evaluation of local response of CaP to irradiation using multiparametric MRI & MR guided biopsies (NCI 13-c-0119)
read more
This study uses multiparametric MRI-guided and MR-guided biopsies as tools to evaluate response to local radiation therapy. Study subjects include men who have not received any prior treatment but are about to undergo radiation therapy and men whose cancer is progressing after initial radiation therapy. The goal is to use the imaging studies and the genetic information from the biopsies to draw conclusions on how they relate to the efficacy of radiation and radiation resistance. All participants will receive an initial multiparametric MRI and a tissue biopsy. Men who are scheduled for radiation therapy will undergo that therapy. Six months following completion of radiation, they will complete another MRI and additional blood tests. |

A Phase II Double-Blinded, Placebo-Controlled Trial of PROstate OligoMETastatic RadiotHErapy With or Without ANdrogen Deprivation Therapy in Oligometastatic Prostate Cancer (NRG Promethean)
read more
This phase II trial tests whether relugolix (a type of hormonal therapy) and radiation therapy works to shrink tumors in patients with prostate cancer that has spread in a limited way to 1 to 5 other parts of the body (oligometastatic). Testosterone can cause the growth of prostate cancer cells. Relugolix lowers the amount of testosterone made by the body. This may help stop the growth of tumor cells that need testosterone to grow. Giving relugolix with radiation therapy may help lower the chance of prostate cancer growing or spreading.
This study has 2 arms:
Arm A: relugolix + SABR (Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy, SBRT)
Patients receive relugolix PO (by mouth, orally) once daily (QD) on days 1-180 and undergo SABR for 1-3 weeks in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
Arm B: placebo + SABR
Patients receive placebo PO QD on days 1-180 and undergo SABR for 1-3 weeks in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

The Phase III 'High Five Trial' Five Fraction Radiation for High-Risk Prostate Cancer
read more
This phase III trial compares stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT), (five treatments over two weeks using a higher dose per treatment) to usual radiation therapy (20 to 45 treatments over 4 to 9 weeks) for the treatment of high-risk prostate cancer. SBRT uses special equipment to position a patient and deliver radiation to tumors with high precision. This method may kill tumor cells with fewer doses over a shorter period of time. This trial is evaluating if shorter duration radiation prevents cancer from coming back as well as the usual radiation treatment.
This study has 2 arms:
Arm A: Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy (SBRT)
Patients undergo SBRT for a total of 5 treatments over 2 weeks.
Arm B: External Beam Radiation Therapy (EBRT)
Patients undergo EBRT for 20 to 45 treatments over 4 to 9 weeks.

A Study of Prospective Monitoring of Subjects With Biochemically Recurrent Prostate Cancer Using 18F-DCFPyL
read more
Prostate cancer is the second leading cause of cancer-related death in American men. The disease recurs in up to 50,000 men each year after their early-stage disease was treated; however, at this stage, imaging scans are often unable to find the disease in the body. In this natural history study, researchers want to find out if a new radiotracer (18F-DCFPyL) injected before positron emission tomography (PET) imaging can help identify sites in the body with cancer.
The objective of this study is to learn more about how 18F-DCFPyL PET/CT scans detect change over time in men with recurrent prostate cancer.
There is no treatment given as part of this study.
Participants will be screened with blood tests. They will also have a bone scan and a computed tomography (CT) scans of the chest, abdomen, and pelvis.
Participants will have an initial study visit. They will have a physical exam and blood tests. They will have a PET/CT scan with 18F-DCFPyL. The radiotracer will be injected into a vein; this will take about 20 seconds. The PET/CT scan will be done 1 to 2 hours later. Participants will lie still on a scanner table while a machine captures images of their body. The scan will take 45 minutes.
Participants will return for blood tests every 3 months.
Participants will return for additional scans with 18F-DCFPyL on this schedule:
Once a year if their previous scan was negative for prostate cancer.
Every 6 months if their previous scan was positive for prostate cancer.
Participants may be in the study up to 5 years.

Phase II Trial of 18F-DCFPyL Imaging as a Method to Assess Treatment Response to Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy
Identifying medium- and high-risk prostate cancer early may allow for treatments to work. But identification can be hard. Researchers want to see if a radiotracer used during PET scans can help.
The purpose of this study is to test how an imaging agent called 18F-DCFPyL detects response to standard prostate cancer treatment.
This study has 1 treatment arm:
Participants will have baseline MRI and PET/CT scans. For the MRI, they may get a contrast agent by IV (intravenous) injection. For the PET/CT scan, they will get an IV injection of 18FDCFPyL. About 1 to 2 hours later, they will get the PET/CT scan. During the scans, participants will lie on their back and remain still for 45 minutes to 1 hour. These scans will be repeated at different points during the study.
Participants will get SBRT (stereotactic body radiation therapy) with or without ADT (androgen deprivation therapy, a type of hormonal therapy).
18F-DCFPyL imaging will be performed at baseline, 8 weeks after ADT initiation, 6 months post SBRT and at recurrence.

Phase III Randomized Trial of Standard Systemic Therapy (SST) Versus Standard Systemic Therapy Plus Definitive Treatment (Surgery or Radiation) of the Primary Tumor in Metastatic Prostate Cancer
read more
This phase III trial studies how well standard systemic therapy with or without definitive treatment (prostate removal surgery or radiation therapy) works in treating participants with prostate cancer that has spread to other places in the body. The addition of prostate removal surgery or radiation therapy to standard systemic therapy for prostate cancer may lower the chance of the cancer growing or spreading.
INDUCTION (all participants): Participants receive 1 of 6 acceptable forms of standard systemic therapy (SST) for 22-28 weeks. The decision of which of the 6 possible options (listed here) will be decided with your doctor.
1. Participants undergo a bilateral orchiectomy.
2. Participants receive goserelin acetate (a type of hormonal therapy) subcutaneously (SC) every 28 days or 12 weeks OR, histrelin acetate (another type of hormonal therapy) SC every 12 months OR, leuprolide acetate (another type of hormonal therapy) SC or intramuscularly (IM) every 1, 3, 4, or 6 months OR, triptorelin (another type of hormonal therapy) every 1, 3, or 6 months.
3. Participants receive goserelin acetate SC every 28 days or 12 weeks OR, histrelin acetate SC every 12 months OR, leuprolide acetate SC or IM every 1, 3, 4, or 6 months OR, triptorelin every 1, 3, or 6 months. Participants also receive nilutamide (a type of hormonal therapy) orally (PO) daily OR, flutamide (another type of hormonal therapy) PO every 8 hours OR, bicalutamide (another type of hormonal therapy) PO daily.
4. Participants receive degarelix (a type of hormonal therapy) by injection for 2 doses and then every 28 days.
5. Participants receive nilutamide PO daily OR, flutamide PO every 8 hours, OR bicalutamide PO daily. Participants also receive docetaxel (Taxotere, a type of chemotherapy) intravenously (IV) over 1 hour every 3 weeks with or without prednisone (a type of steroid) PO every 12 hours.
6. Participants receive nilutamide PO daily OR, flutamide PO every 8 hours, OR bicalutamide PO daily. Participants also receive abiraterone (a type of hormonal therapy) PO daily or prednisone PO every 12 hours.
After completion of 22-28 weeks of SST, participants are then randomized to 1 of 2 arms:
ARM I: Participants receive 1 acceptable form of SST as in Induction (above) except for treatment with docetaxel and prednisone.

Androgen Suppression Combined With Elective Nodal Irradiation and Dose Escalated Prostate Treatment: A Non-Inferiority, Phase III Randomized Controlled Trial of Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy Versus Brachytherapy Boost in Patients With Unfavourable Risk Localized Prostate Cancer
read more
This study is being done to answer the following question: Is the strategy to give higher doses of radiotherapy (radiation) treatment over a shorter period of time using special equipment and fewer treatments (also known as Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy or SBRT) as effective as usual external radiation therapy given with a brachytherapy boost (which involves radiation sources inserted directly into the prostate)?
The usual approach for patients with unfavorable prostate cancer who are not in a study is treatment with external beam radiation therapy (EBRT) to the pelvis and prostate in combination with hormone therapy (androgen deprivation therapy - ADT). To improve control of prostate cancer at risk of returning, additional treatment with a brachytherapy boost (insertion of radiation sources directly into the prostate) is recommended. For patients who get the usual approach for this cancer, about 89 out of 100 are free of cancer after 5 years.
This study has 2 treatment arms:
Arm A: EBRT + Brachy Boost
46Gy / 23 fractions of EBRT to pelvis and prostate + LDR or HDR boost to prostate PLUS ADT unfavorable intermediate risk for 6 months or high / very high risk for 24 months.
Arm B: SBRT only
25Gy / 5 fractions to pelvis + 40 Gy / 5 fractions to prostate (SBRT)

High-dose Vitamin D Supplementation for ADT-Induced Bone Loss in Older Prostate Cancer Patients
read more
This phase III trial tests whether high-dose vitamin D works in treating androgen-deprivation therapy (ADT, hormone therapy)-induced bone loss in patients with prostate cancer who are undergoing ADT. Vitamins are substances that the body needs to grow and develop normally. Vitamin D helps the body absorb calcium. Calcium is one of the main building blocks of bone. A lack of vitamin D can lead to bone diseases such as osteoporosis or rickets. This trial may help researcher determine if high-dose vitamin D helps keep bones strong, lowers number of falls, and lessens fatigue in men getting androgen-deprivation therapy.
This is a supportive care study.
This study has 2 arms:
Arm A: High does vitamin D (HDVD)
Patients receive HDVD orally (PO, by mouth) throughout the study. Patients also undergo collection of blood and DEXA scan on study.
Arm B: Placebo
Patients receive placebo PO throughout the study. Patients also undergo collection of blood and DEXA scan on study.

Natural History Study of Men at High Genetic Risk for Prostate Cancer
read more
Research studies have shown that genetic changes and family history may increase a man s risk for prostate cancer. Researchers want to follow the prostate health of men who have specific genetic changes associated with prostate cancer to help them learn more about which men are at higher risk for prostate cancer.
Prostate cancer is the most common malignancy and the second leading cause of cancer-related deaths in American men.
Prostate cancer has substantial inherited predisposition and certain genetic variants that
are associated with an increased risk of prostate cancer.
An evolving approach to prostate cancer screening is to target populations at risk of
developing prostate cancer based on their genetic predisposition.
The objective of this study is to study men with specific genetic changes and determine who is at higher risk for getting prostate cancer, and to study if certain genetic changes and family history can be used to help prevent or treat prostate cancer.
There is NO treatment given in this study.
Participants will undergo sampling of blood for prostate-specific antigen (PSA) and digital
rectal exams. Based on these results and age, patients will be considered for biopsy
and/or continued monitoring. Participants will undergo a baseline MRI evaluation with follow-up scans every 2 years as clinically indicated.
Following initial evaluation, participants will be followed as clinically indicated, usually
at 12 month intervals, to determine their PSA level, prostate cancer treatment (if relevant)
and/or disease/survival status until death.

A Phase II Study Evaluating T-Cell Clonality After Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy Alone and in Combination With the Immunocytokine M9241 in Localized High and Intermediate Risk Prostate Cancer Treated With Androgen Deprivation Therapy
read more
Prostate cancer is often treated with radiation and ADT (ADT is androgen deprivation therapy, a type of hormonal therapy). Up to 30% of these cancers recur within 5 years of treatment. Researchers want to see if a new drug (M9241, a type of hormonal therapy) can help the immune system to fight prostate cancer.
There is a growing body of evidence suggesting that stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT, a type of radiation treatment), which delivers highly conformal high-dose radiation, can promote anti-tumor immune responses both locally and systemically as well as synergize (enhance the effect) with immune checkpoint inhibitors and other forms of immunotherapy.
The objectives of the study are to find what doses of M9241 are safe in people who are treated for prostate cancer, to see what effects M9241 has on the immune system and to evaluate whether immunocytokines (like M9241) can synergize with standard radiation + ADT therapy in prostate cancer.
This study has 2 treatment arms:
Arm A: Radiation only with Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy (SBRT)
SBRT to the prostate will be delivered in 5 fractions of radiation each of 7.25-8.0 Gy, every other day over the course of 10 business days (2-3 weeks). The total dose will be 36.25-40 Gy.
Arm B: Radiation + M9241
SBRT to the prostate will be delivered in 5 fractions of radiation each of 7.25-8.0 Gy, every other day over the course of 10 business days (2-3 weeks). The total dose will be 36.25-40 Gy PLUS M9241 (dose level to be provided by treatment team) given by subcutaneous (SQ or SC) injection once every 4 weeks for 3 doses total. The first M9241 dose will be given 4 weeks after radiation has ended.

read more
The purpose of this study is to assess the effectiveness and safety of opevesostat (a type of targeted therapy) plus hormone replacement therapy (HRT) compared to alternative abiraterone acetate (a type of hormonal therapy) or enzalutamide (a type of hormonal therapy) in participants with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) previously treated with one next-generation hormonal agent (NHA). The study hypothesis is that opevesostat is superior to the alternative abiraterone acetate or enzalutamide.
This study has 2 arms:
Arm A: hormone replacement therapy (HRT)+ opevesostat
Participants receive opevesostat 5 mg tablets by mouth (PO, orally) twice daily (BID) plus dexamethasone (a steroid) 1.5 mg tablets by mouth and fludrocortisone acetate (a steroid) 0.1 mg tablets by mouth once daily (QD) continuously until disease progression. Hydrocortisone (a steroid) 100 mg (oral or intramuscular injection [IM]) will also be provided to participants for use as rescue medication.
Arm B: Alternative next generation hormonal agent (NHA)
Participants receive Abiraterone 1000 mg tablets by mouth QD plus Prednisone 5 mg tablets by mouth BID OR Enzalutamide 160 mg tablets by mouth QD until disease progression.

Phase Ib/II Trial of Pembrolizumab (MK-3475) Combination Therapies in Metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer (mCRPC) (KEYNOTE-365)
read more
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of pembrolizumab (Keytruda or MK-3475, a type of immunotherapy) combination therapy in patients with metastatic castrate resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). It is thought that combining pembrolizumab with other therapies will be more effective than those therapies alone.
This study has 8 treatment arms:
Arm 1: Pembrolizumab + Olaparib (Lynparza, a type of targeted therapy)
Participants will receive pembrolizumab 200 mg intravenously (IV) on Day 1 of each 3-week dosing cycle (Q3W) and olaparib 400 mg capsules or 300 mg tablets by mouth (PO or orally) twice a day (BID) continuously from Day 1 of Cycle 1. Treatment with pembrolizumab will continue until progression or a maximum of 35 treatment cycles (up to 2 years). Treatment with olaparib will continue until progression. Participants who must discontinue 1 of the 2 drugs in the combination due to adverse events may continue the study with the other combination drug.
Arm 2: Pembrolizumab + Docetaxel (Taxotere, a type of chemotherapy) + Prednisone (a steroid)
Participants will receive pembrolizumab 200 mg IV on Day 1 Q3W, docetaxel IV on Day 1 Q3W, and prednisone 5 mg tablet PO BID continuously from Day 1 of Cycle 1. Participants will only be permitted to receive a maximum of 10 cycles of docetaxel and prednisone. Treatment with pembrolizumab will continue for a maximum of 35 cycles (up to 2 years) or until progression.

Phase III Study of PET-Directed Local or Systemic Therapy Intensification in Prostate Cancer Patients With Post-Prostatectomy Biochemical Recurrence
read more
This phase III trial compares the addition of apalutamide (a type of hormonal therapy), with or without targeted radiation therapy, to standard of care treatment versus standard of care treatment alone in patients with prostate cancer biochemical recurrence (a rise in the blood level of prostate-specific antigen [PSA] after treatment with surgery or radiation). Diagnostic procedures, such as positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT), may help doctors look for cancer that has spread to the pelvis. Androgens can cause the growth of prostate cancer cells. Apalutamide may help fight prostate cancer by blocking the use of androgens by the tumor cells. Targeted radiation therapy uses high energy rays to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors that have spread. This trial may help doctors determine if using PET/CT results to deliver more tailored treatment (i.e., adding apalutamide, with or without targeted radiation therapy, to standard of care treatment) works better than standard of care treatment alone in patients with biochemical recurrence of prostate cancer.
This study has 4 treatment arms:
Arm A: PET scan plus standard of care radiation and hormonal therapy
Arm B: PET scan, standard of care radiation and hormonal therapy PLUS apalutamide by mouth (PO) once daily (QD) for 6 months in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
Arm C: PET scan, standard of care radiation and hormonal therapy PLUS apalutamide by mouth (PO) once daily (QD) for 6 months in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients randomized to this arm will receive an additional PET scan at 12 months (or at second rise in PSA).
Arm D: PET scan, standard of care radiation and hormonal therapy PLUS apalutamide by mouth (PO) once daily (QD) for 6 months in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients randomized to this arm also receive targeted radiation therapy over 3-5 fractions in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Phase I/II Study of M9241 with Docetaxel and Abiraterone in Adults with Metastatic Castration Sensitive and M9241 with Docetaxel in Castration Resistant Prostate Cancer.
read more
Metastatic castration sensitive and castration resistant prostate cancer (mCSPC and mCRPC) are prostate cancers that have spread to other parts of the body. Use of the drug docetaxel (Taxotere, a type of chemotherapy) with androgen deprivation therapy can improve survival for men with mCSPC. Researchers want to see if combining this treatment with other drugs can help delay the time it takes for mCSPC and mCRPC to get worse.
The objective of this study is to determine if giving docetaxel with M7824 (Bintrafusp Alfa, a type of immunotherapy) and M9241 (NHS-IL12, a type of immunotherapy) is safe and effective for men with prostate cancer.
This study has 2 treatment arms:
Arm A: Docetaxel plus M9241 dose escalation with optional prednisone (a type of steroid) and ADT (androgen deprivation therapy, a type of hormonal therapy) as part of SOC (standard of care).
Docetaxel 75mg/m^2 will be administered intravenously (IV) once every 21 days (a 3-week cycle) for up to 6 cycles in mCSPC and until progression or unacceptable toxicity in mCRPC.
M9241 at escalating doses will be administered as a subcutaneous (SC or SQ) injection once every three weeks.
Prednisone and ADT will be given per standard of care (SOC)
Arm B: Docetaxel plus M9241 plus M7824 with optional prednisone and ADT as part of SOC.

Parallel Phase III Randomized Trials of Genomic-Risk Stratified Unfavorable Intermediate Risk Prostate Cancer: De-Intensification and Intensification Clinical Trial Evaluation (GUIDANCE)
read more
This phase III trial uses the Decipher risk score to guide intensification (for higher Decipher gene risk) or de-intensification (for low Decipher gene risk) of treatment to better match therapies to an individual patient's cancer aggressiveness. The Decipher risk score evaluates a prostate cancer tumor for its potential for spreading. In patients with low risk scores, this trial compares radiation therapy alone to the usual treatment of radiation therapy and hormone therapy (androgen deprivation therapy or ADT). Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays or particles to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. Androgen deprivation therapy blocks the production or interferes with the action of male sex hormones such as testosterone, which plays a role in prostate cancer development. Giving radiation treatment alone may be the same as the usual approach in controlling the cancer and preventing it from spreading, while avoiding the side effects associated with hormonal therapy.
In patients with higher Decipher gene risk, this trial compares the addition of darolutamide (Nubeqa) to usual treatment radiation therapy and hormone therapy, to usual treatment. Darolutamide blocks the actions of the androgens (like testosterone) in the tumor cells and in the body. The addition of darolutamide to the usual treatment may better control the cancer and prevent it from spreading.
This study has 3 arms:
Arm A: Radiation alone
Patients undergo RT using a recognized regimen (2-3 days a week or 5 days a week for 2-11 weeks) in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
Arm B: Radiation + ADT
Patients undergo RT as Arm A. Patients also receive ADT consisting of leuprolide, goserelin, buserelin, histrelin, triptorelin, degarelix, or relugolix at the discretion of the treating physician, for 6 months in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients may also receive bicalutamide or flutamide for 0, 30 or 180 days.
Arm C: Radiation + ADT + darolutamide
Patients receive RT and ADT as in Arm II. Patients also receive darolutamide PO BID on days 1-90. Treatment repeats every 90 days for up to 2 cycles in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

A Phase II Trial of Focal Ultrahypofractionated Stereotactic Radiation Therapy for the Treatment of Unifocal Prostate Cancer
read more
The current standard treatment of prostate cancer is either surgery or radiation. Typically, this includes either the removal or radiation of the whole prostate gland. Many people now seek out focal therapy options to decrease the side effects of treatment. Until now, several forms of physical destruction with heat (thermal ablation), cold (cryotherapy), sound waves (HIFU), laser (FLA), and electrical energy (IRE). A new type of radiation (SBRT) may be an effective way to cure men of early-stage prostate cancer with fewer side effects than standard treatments.
The objective of this study is to see how people with untreated localized prostate cancer will respond to focal therapy with SBRT.
All participants will receive radiation therapy with SBRT.
Participants will undergo screening including blood tests, an MRI, a PSMA PET/CT (18F-DCFPyL), and a biopsy.
Small, non-radioactive, gold seeds about the size of a grain of rice will be placed in and/or around the tumor to help target the radiation treatment.
Radiation (SBRT) will occur in 2 separate sessions about 1 week apart. No sedation is used, these sessions are painless. Each session will take about 1-2 hours. Participants can go home afterwards.
Follow-up will continue for 2 years with repeat scans (MRI and PSMA PET/CT) and blood (PSA) tests.
After two years, a biopsy will be done to understand the impact of this new treatment on prostate cancer.

This phase II trial evaluates whether genetic testing in prostate cancer is helpful in deciding which study treatment patients are assigned. Patient cancer tissue samples are obtained from a previous surgery or biopsy procedure and tested for deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and ribonucleic acid (RNA) abnormalities or mutations in their cancer.
Valemetostat tosylate is in a class of medications called EZH1/EZH2 inhibitors (a type of targeted therapy). It blocks proteins called EZH1 and EZH2, which may help slow or stop the spread of tumor cells.
Carboplatin is in a class of medications known as platinum-containing compounds (a type of chemotherapy). Carboplatin works by killing, stopping or slowing the growth of tumor cells. Cabazitaxel injection is in a class of medications called microtubule inhibitors (a type of chemotherapy). It works by slowing or stopping the growth of tumor cells.
Abiraterone acetate (Zytiga, a type of hormonal therapy) blocks tissues from making androgens (male hormones), such as testosterone. This may cause the death of tumor cells that need androgens to grow. It is a type of anti-androgen.
Enzalutamide (Xtandi, a type of hormonal therapy) is in a class of medications called androgen receptor inhibitors. It works by blocking the effects of androgen (a male reproductive hormone) to stop the growth and spread of tumor cells.
Lutetium Lu 177 vipivotide tetraxetan is in a class of medications called radiopharmaceuticals (a type of radiation therapy). It works by targeting and delivering radiation directly to tumor cells which damages and kills these cells.
Assigning patients to targeted treatment based on genetic testing may help shrink or slow the cancer from growing.

Customized Ablation of the Prostate With the TULSA Procedure Against Radical Prostatectomy Treatment: a Randomized Controlled Trial for Localized Prostate Cancer (CAPTAIN) (J21133)
read more
The typical standard of care for patients with localized, intermediate risk prostate cancer is radical prostatectomy, which involves the surgical removal of the prostate. Although radical prostatectomy is effective in terms of controlling the cancer, it may leave men with significant long-term effects in urinary, sexual function like erectile dysfunction and/or incontinence (loss of bladder control), thus reducing quality of life. Preservation of continence (ability to control your bladder) and potency (ability to achieve erection and/or ejaculation) may be significant concerns for men.
Targeted ablation of localized prostate cancer using MRI-guided technology is becoming a favorable option for many men who wish to have their cancer treated but do not wish to compromise their urinary and sexual functions. The TULSA Procedure is a new, minimally invasive technique that uses real-time MRI-guided technology to guide the delivery of high-energy ultrasound to precisely, and in a customized fashion specific to you, heat and kill the prostate cancer tissue while protecting important surrounding body parts that are important for preserving urinary and sexual function. Minimally invasive here means that the procedure is performed through natural openings in your body (the urethra) instead of creating larger openings like traditional surgery or minimally invasive surgery.
This study has 2 treatment arms:
Arm A: Radical prostatectomy
If you are in this group, you will get the standard of care treatment used to treat this type of cancer: radical prostatectomy. You will undergo this procedure as per standard clinical practice. A radical prostatectomy is a surgical procedure that removes the prostate gland. This is done by making a surgical incision and removing the prostate gland.
Arm B: TULSA procedure
If you are in this group, you will get the TULSA Procedure. The TULSA Procedure is a minimally invasive procedure that uses directional ultrasound to produce very high temperature to ablate (destroy) targeted prostate tissue. The procedure is performed in an MRI suite (the physician can see the prostate at all times throughout the procedure) and uses the TULSA-PRO system to ablate prostate tissue. The procedure combines real-time MRI with robotically driven directional thermal ultrasound to deliver predictable, physician-prescribed ablation of the prostate. Minimally invasive here means that the procedure is performed through natural openings in your body (the urethra) instead of creating larger openings like in traditional surgery.

18F-DCFPyL PET/CT in High Risk and Recurrent Prostate Cancer
read more
Prostate cancer is the second leading cause of cancer deaths in American men. When prostate cancer is confined to the prostate there is a high chance of cure. However, if it is outside the prostate or comes back after treatment, additional therapy may be needed. Current methods of imaging prostate cancer are limited. Researchers want to see if a radiotracer called 18F-DCFPyL can identify prostate cancer in patients who have a high risk of cancer spreading outside the prostate or who have signs of recurrent cancer after treatment.
Participants will be divided into 2 groups:
Group 1 will be men with cancer that has been newly diagnosed as high risk by their doctor who are scheduled to have prostate removal surgery or undergo biopsy before radiation therapy.
Group 2 will be men who have presumed prostate cancer relapse after prostate removal surgery or radiation therapy.
Both groups will have scans taken. Participants will lie still on a table in a machine that takes pictures of their body. 18F-DCFyL will be injected by intravenous (IV) line.
Participants will be contacted for follow-up after scans.
There is no treatment given on this protocol.

Phase 1/2 Study of REGN4336 (a PSMAXCD3 Bispecific Antibody) Administered Alone or in Combination With Cemiplimab in Patients With Metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer
read more
Prostate cancer is the leading cause of new cancer diagnoses and the second most common cause of cancer-related death in American men. Prognosis is especially poor for men with metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). Prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) is highly expressed on malignant prostate tissue but shows limited expression on normal tissue. As such, PSMA is an excellent research target for treatment of mCRPC. REGN4336 is a PSMAxCD3 bispecific antibody designed to facilitate T-cell–mediated killing of PSMA-expressing tumor cells (a type of immunotherapy). In preclinical models, REGN4336 demonstrated strong PSMA-dependent antitumor activity. Preclinical data also support clinical research into the combination of REGN4336 with cemiplimab (Libtayo, another type of immunotherapy) for treating mCRPC.
This study has 2 treatment arms:
Arm A: REGN4336 alone
Administered once weekly (QW) or every 3 weeks (Q3W) by subcutaneous (SC) injection.
Arm B: REGN4336 + Cemiplimab
REGN4336 administered once weekly (QW) or every 3 weeks (Q3W) by subcutaneous (SC) injection PLUS Cemiplimab administered concomitantly every 3 weeks (Q3W) by intravenous (IV) infusion.

A Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled Phase 3 Study of Darolutamide Plus Androgen Deprivation Therapy (ADT) Compared With Placebo Plus ADT in Patients With High-risk Biochemical Recurrence (BCR) of Prostate Cancer
read more
Researchers are looking for a better way to treat men at high-risk of biochemical recurrence (BCR) of prostate cancer.
BCR means that in men who had prostate cancer and were treated by either surgery and/ or radiation therapy, the blood level of a specific protein called PSA rises. PSA is a marker of prostate cancer cells activity. The PSA increase means that the cancer has come back even though conventional imaging such as computed tomography (CT) scans, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and bone scans does not show any lesion of prostate cancer. Recently a more sensitive imaging method called prostate-specific membrane antigen [PSMA] positron emission tomography [PET]) /computed tomography [CT]) scan may identify prostate cancer lesions not detectable by conventional imaging.
Men with BCR have a higher risk of their cancer spreading to other parts of the body, particularly when PSA levels raised to a certain limit within a short period of time after local therapies. Once the cancer spreads to other parts of the body, it can become even harder to treat.
In men with prostate cancer, male sex hormones (also called androgens) like testosterone can help the cancer grow and spread. To reduce androgens levels in these patients, there are treatments that block androgens production in the body called androgen deprivation therapy (ADT). ADT is often used to stop prostate cancer. Another way to stop prostate cancer growth and spread is to block the action of androgen receptors on prostate cancer cells called androgen receptor inhibitors (ARIs). The new generation ARIs including darolutamide can block the action of androgens receptors and are available for the treatment of prostate cancer in addition to ADT. It is already known that men with prostate cancer benefit from these treatments.
The main objective of this study is to learn if the combination of darolutamide and ADT prolongs the time that the participants live without their cancer getting worse, or to death due to any cause, compared to placebo (which is a treatment that looks like a medicine but does not have any medicine in it) and ADT given for a pre-specified duration of 24 months.
This study has 2 treatment arms:
Arm A: Darolutamide + ADT
Participants will receive darolutamide plus ADT twice daily with food for 24 months.
Arm B: Placebo + ADT
Participants will receive Placebo plus ADT twice daily with food for 24 months.

Parallel Phase III Randomized Trials for High Risk Prostate Cancer Evaluating De-Intensification for Lower Genomic Risk and Intensification of Concurrent Therapy for Higher Genomic Risk With Radiation (PREDICT-RT*)
read more
This trial compares less intense hormone therapy and radiation therapy to standard of care hormone therapy and radiation therapy in treating patients with high risk prostate cancer and a low gene risk score. This trial also compares more intense hormone therapy and radiation therapy to standard of care hormone therapy and radiation therapy in patients with high risk prostate cancer and a high gene risk score. Abiraterone acetate (Zytiga, a type of hormonal therapy) may help fight prostate cancer by lowering the amount of testosterone made by the body. Apalutamide (Erleada, a type of hormonal therapy) may help fight prostate cancer by blocking the use of androgen by the tumor cells. Radiation therapy uses high energy rays to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. Giving a shorter hormone therapy treatment may work the same at controlling prostate cancer compared to the standard of care 24 month hormone therapy treatment in patients with a low gene risk score. Adding abiraterone acetate and apalutamide to the usual treatment may increase the length of time without prostate cancer spreading as compared to the usual treatment in patients with a high gene risk score.
This study has 3 treatment arms:
Arm A: Standard of care radiation (RT) + androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) for 24 months (De-Intensification)
Patients undergo RT over 4-9 weeks and receive ADT for 24 months in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
Arm B: RT + ADT for 12 months (De-Intensification)
Patients undergo RT over 4-9 weeks and receive ADT for 12 months in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
Arm C: RT + ADT + Apalutamide + Abiraterone with Prednisone (Intensification)
Patients undergo radiation therapy over 4-9 weeks and receive ADT (for 24 months in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients also receive apalutamide, abiraterone acetate and prednisone by mouth (PO or orally) once per day (QD). Treatment repeats every 90 days for up to 8 cycles (24 months) in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Multiparametric MRI for Assessing Radiotherapy Treatment Response of Prostate Cancer
read more
Prostate cancer is one of most common cancers in America, affecting 1 in 6 men. External beam radiation therapy is one of the common methods to treat prostate cancer. Although radiotherapy is effective, side effects to the nearby normal organs limit the therapeutic ratio. Those side effects are usually associated with the radiation damage of the normal tissue surrounding prostate. Both effectiveness and the side effects of radiation treatment are often assessed after the whole course of radiotherapy, which makes early intervention difficult. The current research project is a feasibility study of utilizing advanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) techniques to assess radiotherapy treatment response of prostate cancer during and right after radiotherapy.
Many advanced MRI techniques have been used in radiology departments for diagnostic purpose. This research project will study the feasibility of using advanced MRI sequences to monitor tissue response during and after radiotherapy. The tissue changes revealed from MRI can provide physicians early information on possible tumor recurrence and normal tissue toxicity, therefore, early intervention may be possible to spare normal tissue and cure the patient. The project is designed to combine several different advanced MRI imaging techniques systematically to study tissue changes during radiotherapy, which has not been done elsewhere to date.
Another important goal of this research project is to study the feasibility of associating functional MRI with radiation treatment dose distribution. Tissue response during radiation treatment depends on dose. The functional MRI can provide more information than simple anatomic information. Mapping the functional MRI spatially and associating them with 3D dose distribution in radiation treatment planning system is one important step to assess the relationship between radiation treatment and tissue changes due to the radiation.
There is no treatment provided in this study.

Randomized Phase III Trial Incorporating Abiraterone Acetate With Prednisone and Apalutamide and Advanced Imaging Into Salvage Treatment for Patients With Node-Positive Prostate Cancer After Radical Prostatectomy
read more
This phase III trial studies how well adding apalutamide (a type of hormonal therapy), abiraterone acetate (Zytiga, a type of hormonal therapy), and prednisone (a steroid) to the usual hormone therapy and radiation therapy works compared to the usual hormone therapy and radiation therapy in treating patients with node-positive prostate cancer after surgery. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-ray to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. Androgens, or male sex hormones, can cause the growth of prostate cancer cells. Drugs, such as apalutamide, may help stop or slow the growth of prostate cancer cell growth by blocking the androgens. Abiraterone acetate blocks some of the enzymes needed for androgen production and may cause the death of prostate cancer cells that need androgens to grow. Prednisone may help abiraterone acetate work better by making tumor cells more sensitive to the drug. Adding apalutamide and abiraterone acetate with prednisone to the usual hormone therapy and radiation therapy after surgery may stabilize prostate cancer and prevent it from spreading or extend time without disease spreading compared to the usual approach.
This study has 2 treatment arms:
Arm A: Radiation and hormonal therapy (standard of care)
Patients receive standard of care hormone therapy per physician discretion for 24 months. Patients also undergo standard of care pelvis and prostate bed radiation therapy 5 days per week over 7-8 weeks beginning within 56 days after first hormone injection if the injection is not started prior to registration or within 90 days after first hormone injection if the injection is started prior to registration in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
Arm B: Radiation and hormonal therapy PLUS apalutamide, abiraterone acetate and prednisone
Patients receive standard of care hormone therapy and radiation therapy as in Arm A. Patients also receive apalutamide by mouth (PO) once daily (QD), abiraterone acetate PO QD, and
prednisone PO QD or BID (twice daily) on days 1-90. Cycles repeat every 90 days for 8 cycles in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
