About this study

Official title: MRI Substudy; Metabolic Changes Due to Iatrogenic Hypogonadism in Patients With Prostate Cancer: Orchiectomy vs. Triptorelin

The purpose of this study is to investigate if androgen deprivation therapy in men with prostate cancer increases hepatic fat content and changes visceral/subcutaneous fat distribution.

Read the detailed description

This is a substudy of the ongoing randomized trial entitled: Metabolic Changes Due to Iatrogenic Hypogonadism in Patients With Prostate Cancer: Orchiectomy vs. Triptorelin (EudraCT number: 2013-002553-29). 20 consecutive patients are anticipated to participate regardless of assignment to either orchiectomy or triptorelin.

Being tested
Triptorelin, Orchiectomy
Medical subject headings
Prostatic Neoplasms, Metabolic Syndrome, Hypogonadism, Fatty Liver

What participants receive

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

  • TriptorelinDrug

    Also called Pamorelin

    Androgen deprivation therapy by Pamorelin 22,5mg/24 weeks administered intramuscularly.

  • OrchiectomyProcedure or surgery

    Also called Subcapsular orchiectomy

    Androgen deprivation therapy by bilateral subcapsular orchiectomy

What is being measured

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

  1. Change in hepatic fat content

    Change in hepatic fat content measured by Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy

    Measured: At baseline (within 4 weeks of commencement of androgen deprivation therapy) and after 24 weeks

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Change in visceral/subcutaneous fat mass

    Changes in visceral and subcutaneous fat mass measured by Magnetic Resonance Imaging.

    Measured: At baseline (within 4 weeks of commencement of androgen deprivation therapy) and after 24 weeks

  2. Correlation between Hepatic fat content and baseline androgen status

    To investigate possible correlation between androgen status before commencing androgen deprivation therapy and hepatic fat content at baseline.

    Measured: Androgen status measured before commencement of androgen deprivation therapy (ADT), hepatic fat content measured at baseline (within 1 month of commencing androgen deprivation therapy)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Triptorelin and Orchiectomy in people with Prostate Cancer and Metabolic Syndrome, run by Herlev Hospital at 1 site in Denmark.

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 1 inclusion and 3 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 Oct 2015. 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 Denmark. 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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

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.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change in hepatic fat content (time frame: At baseline (within 4 weeks of commencement of androgen deprivation therapy) and after 24 weeks). 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 28 Oct 2015.
