A Phase 2/3 interventional study of High Intensity Focused Ultrasound in Prostate Cancer, sponsored by Jewish General Hospital. Status unknown at 1 site in Canada. Open to male participants aged 50 Years and older. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2017-04-19.
Sponsored by Jewish General Hospital · Phase 2/3, Interventional, and Treatment
To evaluate the rate of patients without cancer detected by biopsies performed six months after hemi-ablation with high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) (Ablatherm ®).
Evaluate the impact of the HIFU treatment on continence, sexuality and quality of life at one year. Evaluate the cost of hemi-ablation HIFU treatment.
A prospective single -centre phase II, single arm, cohort study (therapeutic confirmatory) offering focal therapy using HIFU (Ablatherm ®) to 25 men with histologically proven localised low to intermediate risk prostate cancer (PSA ≤10ng/ml, Gleason score ≤ 7 ,T1c or T2b ). Precise mapping and characterisation of the disease will be established using multi-parametric (mp)-MRI and prostate biopsies. Only the lobe with disease will be treated.
