Prostate Cancer Trials in British Columbia
Here are the 6 most popular medical studies in bc prostate cancer
Genetic Sequencing
Genome Sequencing for Personalized Cancer Therapy
Recruiting1 award
Vancouver, British Columbia
This trial will use full genome sequencing to identify cancer "drivers" and corresponding drugs that may inhibit these pathways, in order to match each individual cancer to a biologically relevant targeted therapy.
Carotid Stenting vs. Endarterectomy for Carotid Stenosis
Recruiting1 award12 criteria
Stockton, California
This trial will compare two methods of preventing stroke in patients with asymptomatic high-grade carotid stenosis. One group will have endarterectomy and the other will have carotid stenting with embolic protection.
MEK Inhibitor
Trametinib for Advanced Cancer
Recruiting1 awardPhase 1
Vancouver, British Columbia
This trial is testing whether a drug called trametinib can help treat patients with advanced cancer that has spread and usually can't be cured or controlled. Trametinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking proteins needed for cell growth. Hepatic dysfunction is common in patients with advanced cancer and usually prevents them from receiving standard treatments or participating in clinical trials. Trametinib may be a better treatment for these patients.
Immunomodulatory Agent
Pomalidomide + Dexamethasone +/- Daratumumab for Multiple Myeloma
Recruiting1 awardPhase 2
Surrey, British Columbia
This trial will evaluate the efficacy of pomalidomide and low-dose dexamethasone or the combination of pomalidomide, daratumumab, and low-dose dexamethasone in subjects with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need insurance to participate in a trial?
Almost all clinical trials will cover the cost of the 'trial drug' — so no insurance is required for this. For trials where this trial drug is given alongside an already-approved medication, there may be a cost (which your insurance would normally cover).
Is there any support for travel costs?
Many of the teams running clinical trials will cover the cost of transportation to-and-from their care center.
Will I know what medication I am taking?
This depends on the specific study. If you're worried about receiving a placebo, you can actively filter out these trials using our search.
How long do clinical trials last?
Some trials will only require a single visit, while others will continue until your disease returns. It's fairly common for a trial to last somewhere between 1 and 6 months.
Do you verify all the trials on your website?
All of the trials listed on Power have been formally registered with the US Food and Drug Administration. Beyond this, some trials on Power have been formally 'verified' if the team behind the trial has completed an additional level of verification with our team.
How quickly will I hear back from a clinical trial?
Sadly, this response time can take anywhere from 6 hours to 2 weeks. We're working hard to speed up how quickly you hear back — in general, verified trials respond to patients within a few days.
