Exercise Therapy and Radiation Therapy (EXERT) for Metastatic Prostate Cancer

This study is being done to determine if patients receiving personalized exercise therapy (versus those who do not receive personalized exercise therapy) have improved quality of life and physical functioning after completing their radiation therapy. Second, the study is being done to find if the quality of life changes during therapy correlate with measurements of inflammation in the blood. Third, the study is being done to see if adding exercise therapy to radiation therapy will improve survival.

STereotActic Body Radiotherapy and 177Lutetium PSMA in Locally Advanced Prostate Cancer

The goal of this clinical trial is to is to investigate if it is possible to lower the chance of cancer reoccurrence and also preserve quality of life by using the drug Pluvicto instead of androgen-deprivation therapy to the usual radiation therapy for advanced local prostate cancer. Participants will receive one dose of Pluvicto, followed by radiation about 6 weeks later. Radiation therapy will be completed in 5 treatments over the period of 2 weeks. A second dose of Pluvicto will be given 6 weeks after radiation is complete. Some participants may also receive a third dose of Pluvicto, and this would be given 6 weeks after the second dose of Pluvicto.

MDRT in Prostate Cancer Treated With Long-term Androgen Deprivation Therapy in the STAMPEDE Trial (METANOVA)

The purpose of this study is to find out if giving radiation therapy (RT) to areas of metastatic prostate cancer at the time a participant is diagnosed will help control disease better than the usual treatment. This treatment is called metastasis-directed radiotherapy (MDRT). The usual treatment for prostate cancer that has spread to other parts of the body is to give lifelong treatment with hormone therapy (also known as androgen deprivation therapy or ADT). Participants may also be given prostate RT even if the disease is metastatic. Participants will receive hormone therapy (the standard treatment for prostate cancer) for 12 months. The hormone therapy agents may be taken by mouth or given as an injection. Participants will also have prostate RT. Up to 50 participants will have surgery to remove the prostate instead of having prostate RT. A portion of the participants will be randomized to receive MDRT to areas where the cancer has spread. For participants who have surgery to remove their prostate, they will be asked to allow tissue samples collected during the surgery to be sent to an outside lab for research tests and extra blood samples drawn for research tests before starting the study, and at the time the cancer becomes worse if applicable. Participation in the study will last approximately 12 months, and will be followed by their doctor for up to five years per standard of care. The main goal is to compare the efficacy of the standard of care (standard systemic therapy + definitive prostate-directed local therapy) versus the standard of care with metastasis-directed radiotherapy (MDRT) for consolidation of metastatic disease.

68Ga-AAZTA-093 PET/CT: First-in-human Study

68Ga-AAZTA-093 is a novel radiotracer targeting prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA). In this study, we observed the safety, biodistribution, radiation dosimetry and diagnostic value of 68Ga-AAZTA-093 PET/CT in patients with prostate cancer.
