Trial summary

Biomarkers of bone resorption will be measured in the blood of patients with bone metastases from prostate cancer during the course of their illness. Changes in these biomarkers will be correlated with the patient's treatment with antiandrogen therapy and bisphosphonates and the response and/or progression of their… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Measurement of Biomarkers of Bone Resorption in Patients With Hormone Sensitive Bone Metastases From Prostate Cancer Treated With Antiandrogen Therapy and Bisphosphonates

Biomarkers of bone resorption will be measured in the blood of patients with bone metastases from prostate cancer during the course of their illness. Changes in these biomarkers will be correlated with the patient's treatment with antiandrogen therapy and bisphosphonates and the response and/or progression of their cancer. It is hoped that serial measurement of these biomarkers may allow therapeutic monitoring in the future with successful individualisation of bisphosphonate therapy for metastatic prostate cancer.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Metastatic Prostate Cancer, run by University of Aberdeen at 1 site in United Kingdom.

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 2 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed 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.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

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?
