Columbia University Prostate Cancer Focal Therapy Registry
Columbia University
Summary
Patients undergoing high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) or irreversible electroporation (IRE) for prostate cancer will be invited to consent to have their data collected in a detailed comprehensive system to record and store patient, disease, and treatment-related characteristics. No treatment will be given, no randomization will occur, and each patient seen and treated for prostate cancer specifically with HIFU and IRE method in the Department of Urology division of Urologic Oncology within Columbia University Irving Medical Center will be eligible to be enrolled in the database.
Description
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate surgical, oncologic, functional, and quality-of-life outcomes following focal treatment with high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) or irreversible electroporation (IRE) in patients with localized prostate cancer. The study will assess the feasibility and efficacy of focal prostate tissue ablation using these treatment approaches. Multiparametric MRI will be used to identify regions of interest within the prostate and to support treatment planning and targeting. The investigators aim to further characterize outcomes after focal ablation wit…
