The aim of this study is to show that radical prostatectomy by laparoscopic way could obtain carcinological results not lower than theses with radical retropubic surgery.

Being tested

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. laparoscopic way versus open retropubic way among patients requiring a radical prostatectomy for a localised prostate cancer.

    Measured: during the study

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Carcinological (percentage of positive surgical margins, percentage of capsular crossing).

    Measured: after the surgical

  2. Functional (urinary continence, sexuality, quality of life)

    Measured: at 2 years

  3. per and post operational morbidity

    Measured: during the 36 months

  4. economic

    Measured: duration and cost of hospitalization

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Radical retropubic prostatectomy and Radical laparoscopy prostatectomy in people with Cancer of the PROSTATE, run by Assistance Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris at 1 site in France.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 6 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 30 Jul 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Claude ABBOU, PU-PH (33 (0)1.49.81.25.51, claude.abbou@hmn.aphp.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

laparoscopic way versus open retropubic way among patients requiring a radical prostatectomy for a localised prostate cancer. (time frame: during the study). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 30 Jul 2012.
