Nutrition and Exercise Interventions in Reducing Androgen Deprivation Therapy-Induced Obese Frailty in Prostate Cancer Survivors

This trial studies how well nutrition and exercise interventions work in reducing androgen deprivation therapy-induced obese frailty in prostate cancer survivors. Individualized nutrition and exercise advice for prostate cancer patients on androgen deprivation therapy may help to reduce obese frailty and change the levels of myokines in blood.

Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy in Treating Patients With Prostate Cancer After Undergoing Surgery

This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of stereotactic body radiation therapy in treating patients with prostate cancer after undergoing surgery. Stereotactic body radiation therapy may be able to send x-rays directly to the tumor and cause less damage to normal tissue.

High-Dose Rate Brachytherapy and Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy in Treating Patients With Prostate Cancer

The first technology is called high dose rate brachytherapy. Brachytherapy is sometimes called internal radiation therapy. High dose rate brachytherapy is a procedure that involves temporarily placing radioactive material inside the patient's body for about 10-20 minutes. Then, the remainder of the radiation treatment will be given over a 3 week period using stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT). SBRT is a novel treatment modality that involves the delivery of very high individual doses of radiation to tumors with high precision. This allows the doctor to deliver the same amount of radiation in a much shorter time. The purpose of this study is to determine the safety of brachytherapy when combined with hypofractionated SBRT.

High-Dose Brachytherapy in Treating Patients With Prostate Cancer

This trial studies the side effects and how well high-dose brachytherapy works in treating patients with prostate cancer that has not spread to other parts of the body. Brachytherapy is a type of radiation therapy in which radioactive material sealed in needles, seeds, wires, or catheters is placed directly into or near a tumor and may be a better treatment in patients with prostate cancer.

Aborption and Metabolism of Lyophilized Black Raspberry Food Products in Men With Prostate Cancer Undergoing Surgery

This Phase I/Ib trial is studying the absorption and metabolism of phytochemicals found in black raspberries in men undergoing surgery for prostate cancer. This knowledge will help us design future chemoprevention studies and assist in making future dietary recommendations for men at high risk for prostate cancer.

Low-Fat Diet and Fish Oil in Men on Active Surveillance for Prostate Cancer

This randomized phase II trial will evaluate if a low omega-6, high omega-3 fat diet combined with fish oil has the potential to delay disease progression in patients with prostate cancer undergoing active surveillance.
