Brief Title: Predictive and Prognostic Markers for Treatment Outcomes in Prostate Cancer Patients
Official Title: Decipher the Biology of Lethal Prostate Cancer-Using Urine Metabolomics and Proteomics Profiling to Search for Predictive and Prognostic Markers for Treatment Outcomes in Prostate Cancer Patients
Study ID: NCT03237026
Brief Summary: The study aims to identify potential urine marker metabolites as predictive or prognostic markers for treatment outcomes in patients with prostate cancer.
Detailed Description: This is a single-center single-arm translational study where patients with prostate cancer who are about to receive definitive treatments will be invited to participate the study. After signing the approved informed consent, eligible and consenting subjects will donate their fresh urine samples for subsequent untargeted metabolomics and proteomics study to identify potential metabolite and protein markers that are able to predict responses (including efficacy and side effects) to definitive treatments. All subjects who have received varied treatment before the study can NOT be recruited.
