Serum CgA level is measured before the start of RT and/or the start of neoadjuvant ADT for patients undergoing a definitive RT with or without ADT. CgA is also measured at various pre-defined post-RT time points. The study will analyze the followings: 1. Change in CgA level at various pre-defined post-RT time points from the baseline, 2. Correlation between the extent of post-therapy CgA change and Gleason score of malignancy, 3. Correlation between the extent of post-therapy CgA change and treatment outcome.', 'detailedDescription': 'Neuroendocrine differentiation (NED) in prostate cancer is a well-recognized phenotypic change by which prostate cancer cells transdifferentiate into neuroendocrine-like (NE-like) cells. Accumulated evidences have suggested that the prevalence of NE-like cells is associated with disease progression and poor prognosis.\n\nNED can be induced by a therapeutic agent. Such therapeutic agents include RT and ADT. RT-induced NED represents a novel pathway by which prostate cancer cells survive radiotherapy and contribute to treatment failure and tumor recurrence. Chromogranin A is the serum biomarker for NED and correlates well with CgA-positive staining in biopsy specimens. It has been reported that elevated serum CgA is associated with poor therapeutic response, androgen-independent growth, and biochemical recurrence.\n\nThe study tests whether the extent of serum CgA increase by RT +/- ADT, which reflects radiation-induced NED, is correlated with the risk of prostate cancer recurrence following RT and a Gleason score of prostate carcinoma.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'MALE', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'samplingMethod': 'NON_PROBABILITY_SAMPLE', 'studyPopulation': 'Patients that are to receive either definitive RT +/- ADT as a primary therapy or salvage RT +/- ADT as a salvage therapy for a biochemical relapse with local recurrence in the prostatic fossa following a radical prostatectomy.', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Clinically localized prostate carcinoma, T1-T4 N0M0, any Gleason Score, any prostate-specific antigen (PSA), or Biochemical relapse with clinically suspicious (based on MRI or clinical examination) or biopsy-proven local recurrence in the prostatic fossa after a radical prostatectomy\n* ≥18 years old\n* Histologic diagnosis of prostate adenocarcinoma\n* Signed informed consent\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Biochemical relapse alone without clinically suspicious (i.e. no suspicious lesion on MRI of the prostatic bed) or biopsy-proven local recurrence in the prostatic fossa\n* Regional pelvic node metastasis (N1)\n* Distant metastasis (M1)\n* Concurrent or previous cytotoxic medications\n* Medical or psychological conditions that in the opinion of the investigator would not allow follow-up'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT03017794', 'briefTitle': 'Evaluation of Neuroendocrine Differentiation as a Potential Mechanism of Tumor Recurrence Following Radiotherapy', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'Mayo Clinic'}, 'officialTitle': 'Evaluation of Neuroendocrine Differentiation as a Potential Mechanism of Tumor Recurrence Following Radiotherapy', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': '16-008637'}, 'secondaryIdInfos': [{'id': 'NCI-2023-00596', 'type': 'REGISTRY', 'domain': 'CTRP (Clinical Trials Reporting Program)'}]}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'label': 'Gleason score 6 or less', 'description': 'Prostate adenocarcinoma with Gleason score 6 or less'}, {'label': 'Gleason score 7', 'description': 'Prostate adenocarcinoma with Gleason score 7'}, {'label': 'Gleason score 8 -10', 'description': 'Prostate adenocarcinoma with Gleason score 8 -10'}]}, 'contactsLocationsModule': {'locations': [{'zip': '85259', 'city': 'Scottsdale', 'state': 'Arizona', 'country': 'United States', 'facility': 'Mayo Clinic in Arizona', 'geoPoint': {'lat': 33.50921, 'lon': -111.89903}}, {'zip': '32224-9980', 'city': 'Jacksonville', 'state': 'Florida', 'country': 'United States', 'facility': 'Mayo Clinic in Florida', 'geoPoint': {'lat': 30.33218, 'lon': -81.65565}}, {'zip': '55905', 'city': 'Rochester', 'state': 'Minnesota', 'country': 'United States', 'facility': 'Mayo Clinic', 'geoPoint': {'lat': 44.02163, 'lon': -92.4699}}], 'overallOfficials': [{'name': 'Ryan M.
