Antiandrogen + Radiation +/- Docetaxel for Prostate Cancer
Boston, Massachusetts
This randomized phase II/III trial studies docetaxel, antiandrogen therapy, and radiation therapy to see how well it works compared with antiandrogen therapy and radiation therapy alone in treating patients with prostate cancer that has been removed by surgery. Androgen can cause the growth of prostate cells. Antihormone therapy may lessen the amount of androgen made by the body. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as docetaxel, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving antiandrogen therapy and radiation therapy with or without docetaxel after surgery may kill any remaining tumor cells.

Why Other Patients Applied
"My mom has cholangiocarcinoma with bone mts (FGFR2 mutation). She really needs this trial to survive. She’s active and her analysis is ok, but we have very limited other options. Hope to work with a high-quality clinic to prolong her quality and duration of life."
OF
Cholangiocarcinoma PatientAge: 54
"I had two chemotherapy regímens without success, three surgeries during which the tumor could not be resected. These clinical trials are a light of hope for me and my family (I have a five year old child) and I have read about cases of success in other types of cancer with this treatment. I think that I am a perfect candidate for this tríal. Thank you."
UM
Pancreatic Cancer PatientAge: 48
"I was diagnosed with stage 4 pancreatic cancer three months ago, metastatic to my liver, and I have been receiving and responding well to chemotherapy. My blood work revealed that my tumor markers have gone from 2600 in the beginning to 173 as of now, even with the delay in treatment, they are not going up. CT Scans reveal they have been shrinking as well. However, chemo is seriously deteriorating my body. I have 4 more treatments to go in this 12 treatment cycle. I am just interested in learning about my other options, if any are available to me."
ID
Pancreatic Cancer PatientAge: 40
"I've tried chemotherapy and radiation but the cancer recurred. My oncologist suggested that I might want to try a clinical trial given my situation. Just starting to research, hoping to learn more."
FR
Lung Cancer PatientAge: 71
"I've had radiation and as far as I know I’m in remission, but my brother passed away with the same condition. I don’t mind helping research for a cure... my husband passed away with pancreatic cancer. I've had a stepdaughter that passed away with ovarian cancer at 20. I just think it’s time to knock cancer out! I'd really like to help find better treatments by participating in a trial."

Hormone + Radiation Therapy with TAK-700 for Prostate Cancer
Boston, Massachusetts
RATIONALE: Androgens can cause the growth of prostate cancer cells. Drugs, such as steroid 17alpha-monooxygenase TAK-700, when used with other hormone therapy, may lessen the amount of androgens made by the body. Radiation therapy uses high energy x rays to kill tumor cells. This may be an effective treatment for prostate cancer when combined with hormone therapy. Studying quality-of-life in patients having cancer treatment may help identify the intermediate- and long-term effects of treatment on patients with prostate cancer.
PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying the use of hormone therapy, including TAK-700, together with radiation therapy in treating patients with prostate cancer.

Chemotherapy + Hormone Therapy With Surgery for Prostate Cancer
Boston, Massachusetts
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as docetaxel, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Androgens can cause the growth of prostate cancer cells. Antihormone therapy, such as goserelin and leuprolide, may stop the adrenal glands from making androgens. Giving docetaxel and leuprolide or goserelin before surgery may make the tumor smaller and reduce the amount of normal tissue that needs to be removed. It is not yet known whether giving docetaxel and leuprolide or goserelin before surgery is more effective than surgery alone in treating patients with prostate cancer.
PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying docetaxel and leuprolide or goserelin to see how well they work when given before surgery compared with surgery alone in treating patients with high-risk localized prostate cancer.

Darolutamide + ADT for Prostate Cancer
Boston, Massachusetts
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.
To do this, the study team will measure the time from the date of treatment allocation to the finding of new cancer spread in the participants by using PSMA PET/CT, or death due to any cause. The PSMA PET/CT scans is performed using a radioactive substance called a "tracer" that specifically binds to the prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) which is a protein often found in large amounts on prostate cancer cells.
To avoid bias in treatment, the study participants will be randomly (by chance) allocated to one of two treatment groups. Based on the allocated treatment group, the participants will either take darolutamide plus ADT or placebo plus ADT twice daily as tablets by mouth. The study will consist of a test (screening) phase, a treatment phase and a follow-up phase. The treatment duration is pre-specified to be 24 months unless the cancer gets worse, the participants have medical problems, or they leave the study for any reason. In addition, image guided radiotherapy (IGRT) or surgery is allowed and your doctor will explain the benefits and risks of this type of therapy.
During the study, the study team will:
* take blood and urine samples.
* measure PSA and testosterone levels in the blood samples
* do physical examinations
* check the participants' overall health
* examine heart health using electrocardiogram (ECG)
* check vital signs
* check cancer status using PSMA PET/CT scans, CT, MRI and bone scans
* take tumor samples (if required)
* ask the participants if they have medical problems
About 30 days after the participants have taken their last treatment, the study doctors and their team will check the participants' health and if their cancer worsened. The study team will continue to check this and regularly ask the participants questions about medical problems and subsequent therapies until they leave the study for any reason or until they leave the study for any reason or until the end of the study, whatever comes first.

PSMA-PET/CT Scans for Prostate Cancer
Boston, Massachusetts
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if serial PSMA-PET/CT scans can be used to monitor response to therapy in metastatic hormone sensitive prostate cancer and can be potentially used to optimize future treatment approaches.
The main questions it aims to answer are:
What is the proportion of men with residual PSMA-avid disease on PET/CT scans after 6 months of treatment for metastatic hormone sensitive prostate cancer? Do the findings on PSMA-PET/CT scans after 6 months of treatment for metastatic hormone sensitive prostate cancer correlate with other markers of disease status, like PSA?
Participants will:
Receive standard of care treatment for metastatic hormone sensitive prostate cancer Undergo a PSMA-PET/CT scan before starting treatment Undergo a PSMA-PET/CT scan after 6 months of treatment Have a chart review every 3 months for 1 year after the 6 month PSMA-PET/CT scan

Frequently Asked Questions
How much do Prostate Cancer clinical trials in Boston, MA pay?
Each trial will compensate patients a different amount, but $50-100 for each visit is a fairly common range for Phase 2–4 trials (Phase 1 trials often pay substantially more). Further, most trials will cover the costs of a travel to-and-from the clinic.
How do Prostate Cancer clinical trials in Boston, MA work?
After a researcher reviews your profile, they may choose to invite you in to a screening appointment, where they'll determine if you meet 100% of the eligibility requirements. If you do, you'll be sorted into one of the treatment groups, and receive your study drug. For some trials, there is a chance you'll receive a placebo. Across Prostate Cancer trials in Boston, MA 30% of clinical trials have a placebo. Typically, you'll be required to check-in with the clinic every month or so. The average trial length in Boston, MA for Prostate Cancer is 12 months.
How do I participate in a study as a "healthy volunteer"?
Not all studies recruit healthy volunteers: usually, Phase 1 studies do. Participating as a healthy volunteer means you will go to a research facility in Boston, MA several times over a few days or weeks to receive a dose of either the test treatment or a "placebo," which is a harmless substance that helps researchers compare results. You will have routine tests during these visits, and you'll be compensated for your time and travel, with the number of appointments and details varying by study.
What does the "phase" of a clinical trial mean?
The phase of a trial reveals what stage the drug is in to get approval for a specific condition. Phase 1 trials are the trials to collect safety data in humans. Phase 2 trials are those where the drug has some data showing safety in humans, but where further human data is needed on drug effectiveness. Phase 3 trials are in the final step before approval. The drug already has data showing both safety and effectiveness. As a general rule, Phase 3 trials are more promising than Phase 2, and Phase 2 trials are more promising than phase 1.
Do I need to be insured to participate in a Prostate Cancer medical study in Boston, MA?
Clinical trials are almost always free to participants, and so do not require insurance. The only exception here are trials focused on cancer, because only a small part of the typical treatment plan is actually experimental. For these cancer trials, participants typically need insurance to cover all the non-experimental components.
What are the newest Prostate Cancer clinical trials in Boston, MA?
Most recently, we added 177Lu-PSMA-617 for Kidney Cancer, Talazoparib ± Enzalutamide for Prostate Cancer and ACE-232 for Prostate Cancer to the Power online platform.
