About this study

This study is to compare the outcomes of robotic-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (RARP) and laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (LRP) for prostate cancer treatment in terms of perioperative surgical, functional and oncological outcomes.

Read the detailed description

Participants will either have robotic-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (RARP) or laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (LRP) as determined by the treating surgeon. All participants will undergo tests and questionnaires to determine urinary and erectile function, biopsies to determine perioperative surgical, functional and oncological outcomes. These assessments will be conducted pre-operatively, post-operatively and at certain follow-up time points up to 12 months.

Secondary outcomes (12)
  1. Evaluating the pre and postoperative lower urinary tract symptoms using Full score of International Prostate Symptoms Scores (IPSS)

The symptoms must have been experienced in the last month and each answer is scored from 0 to 5 for a maximum score of 35 points. The sum score will be calculated and the mean score will be evaluated.

    Measured: Preoperative

  5. Erectile function assessments questionnaires and scoring using Index of Erectile Function Questionnaire, IIEF5, full score

    The 15-question International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF) Questionnaire is a validated, multi-dimensional, self-administered investigation that has been found useful in the clinical assessment of erectile dysfunction and treatment outcomes in clinical trials. A score of 0-5 is awarded to each of the 15 questions that examine the 4 main domains of male sexual function: erectile function, orgasmic function, sexual desire and intercourse satisfaction. The score ranges from 22 - 25 for Normal erectile function (no ED), 17 - 21 for Mild ED, 12 - 16 for Mild to moderate ED, 8 - 11 for Moderate ED, and from 1 - 7 for Severe ED (5 - 7, if a man had no opportunity to engage in sexual activity). The mean score will be calculated.

  9. The quality of life questionnaires and scoring using the the Short Form (36) Health Survey questionnaire

    The SF-36 consists of eight scaled scores, which are the weighted sums of the questions in their section. Each scale is directly transformed into a 0-100 scale on the assumption that each question carries equal weight. The lower the score the more disability. The higher the score the less disability i.e., a score of zero is equivalent to maximum disability and a score of 100 is equivalent to no disability. The mean score will be calculated.

    Measured: Preoperative

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Radical prostatectomy in people with Prostate Cancer, run by Binh Dan Hospital at 1 site in Vietnam.

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 14 Jul 2020. 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 Vietnam. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 Hoang PC Nguyen, Associate Professor, MD, PhD (+84 913 719 346, npchoang@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The console time (time frame: During the surgery). The study lists 21 primary outcomes in all. 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 14 Jul 2020.
