About this study

Official title: Personalized Prostate Cancer Screening Among Men With High Risk Genetic Predisposition- a Prospective Cohort Study

This will be a prospective diagnostic trial of screening for prostate cancer among men with genetic predisposition.

Read the detailed description

This will be a prospective diagnostic trial of screening for prostate cancer among men with genetic predisposition. The target population is males (40-70 year old) carrying a BRCA1 and/or BRCA2 germ line mutation. They will be identified via our Genetic counseling unit. All men after signing an informed consent will undergo the following tests: PSA, free to total PSA, MRI of prostate and prostate biopsy. The primary endpoint will be to estimate the prevalence, stage and grade of prostate cancer in this population. Additionally, the study aims to estimate the impact of these germ line mutations on benign prostatic hyperplasia. Furthermore, this study aims to create a bio-bank of tissue, urine and serum of this unique cohort for future investigations. Finally, this study will identify an inception cohort for future interventional studies of primary and secondary prevention.

Being tested
PSA, IPSS questionnaire, DRE (Digital Rectal Examination ), urine flow and residual, a multiparametric prostate MRI
Keywords
prostate cancer, BRCA1 Syndrome, BRCA germ-line mutation, Lynch syndrome, BRCA2 Syndrome
Medical subject headings
Colorectal Neoplasms, Hereditary Nonpolyposis, Prostatic Neoplasms

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • PSAOther

    PSA. Serum \& plasma will be stored for future investigations

  • IPSS questionnaireOther

    the validated International Prostate Symptom Score

  • DRE (Digital Rectal Examination )Other

    physical examination for the prostate gland

  • urine flow and residualOther

    The post void residual will be recorded by using ultrasound. Creatinine level will be checked.

  • a multiparametric prostate MRIProcedure or surgery

    The MRI will be reported on a 5 point Likert Scale

  • trans-rectal ultra-sound guided prostate biopsyProcedure or surgery

    12 core Trans-rectal prostatic biopsy for diagnostic purposes

What is being measured

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

  1. Prevalence, stage and pathology of screen-detected prostate cancer in BRCA1/BRCA2 founder mutation carriers and Lynch mutation carriers

    Measured: within 2 years

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Accuracy of different screening tests (PSA, free to total PSA, prostate MRI) in detecting prostate cancer among men with genetic predispositions.

    Measured: within 2 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing PSA, IPSS questionnaire and DRE (Digital Rectal Examination ) in people with BRCA1 Syndrome and BRCA2 Syndrome, run by Rabin Medical Center at 2 sites in Israel.

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 5 inclusion and 2 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 17 Oct 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in Israel. 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.

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 Rachel Ozalvo, B.sc, MBA (+972(0)3-9376553, racheloz@clalit.org.il), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Prevalence, stage and pathology of screen-detected prostate cancer in BRCA1/BRCA2 founder mutation carriers and Lynch mutation carriers (time frame: within 2 years). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02053805, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 17 Oct 2017.
