About this study

Official title: Retrospective, Non-interventional Study Assessing the Real-Life Use of The Long- Acting Gonadotropin-releasing Hormone Agonist as A Treatment for Locally Advanced or Meta-static Prostate Cancer in Hong Kong.

It is a retrospective review of the electronic medical record of patients on long-acting triptorelin in Hong Kong.

Read the detailed description

Prostate cancer is the second most prevalent cancer in men worldwide. Analogues of natural gonadotrophin releasing hormone (GnRH) are currently available in clinical practice to induce castration in subjects with prostate cancer. While 6 month formulation of Triptorelin has been approved since 2018 for controlling tumor growth in subjects with prostate cancer living in Hong Kong, to date, there are no published clinical data regarding the use and efficacy of the 6 month formulation in Chinese subjects with Chinese heritage. To better understand the real-world experience of long-acting GnRH agonist, there is an unmet need for a retrospective, noninterventional review to collect data regarding the use of the long-acting formulation GnRH in clinical practice as a treatment for prostate cancer. The purpose of this study is to collect data on healthcare characteristics and the treatment patterns in the real-world setting, as well as to understand the profile of the subject population using long-acting formulation GnRH agonist.

What is being measured

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

  1. The usage pattern of the long-acting Gonadotropin-releasing Hormone Agonist agonist triptorelin in real-life clinical practice

    The duration and type of GnRH agonist

    Measured: 6 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. The effectiveness of the long-acting Gonadotropin-releasing Hormone Agonist agonist triptorelin in inducing and maintaining castration

    It is assessed by the PSA , testosterone level

    Measured: 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Prostate Cancer, run by Chinese University of Hong Kong at 1 site in Hong Kong.

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 8 inclusion and 1 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 23 Jan 2024. 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 Hong Kong. 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?

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?

The usage pattern of the long-acting Gonadotropin-releasing Hormone Agonist agonist triptorelin in real-life clinical practice (time frame: 6 months). 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 NCT06217770, 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 23 Jan 2024.
