International Registry Study for Men 21 and Older with Advanced Prostate Cancer to Improve Treatment Outcomes and Quality of Life

What this Trial Is About

Researchers are establishing the International Registry to Improve Outcomes in Men with Advanced Prostate Cancer IRONMAN as a prospective, global group of at least 5,000 men with advanced prostate cancer, including those with metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer mHSPC and metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer M0M1 CRPC. This study aims to better understand variations in care and treatment across different countries and medical settings by collecting detailed patient data over time. Participants will receive standard care drugs routinely used for metastatic prostate cancer based on local practices. Data collection begins at enrollment and continues for at least five years. Blood samples and tumor tissue, when possible, will be collected at enrollment, treatment changes, and follow-ups to study molecular markers linked to treatment response and resistance. Patient-reported outcome measures PROMs will be gathered every three months, and physicians will provide treatment and follow-up information regularly. During the study, participants will provide health and treatment information through questionnaires, with regular monitoring of survival, adverse events, and comorbidities. Blood samples will support future research to identify biomarkers. The main outcome is observing practice patterns over five years to help improve understanding of treatment sequences that optimize survival and quality of life for men with advanced prostate cancer.
