STOPCAP M1
Identifying treatments for advanced prostate cancer
STOPCAP M1 is a worldwide collaborative effort that aims to quickly identify which treatments work best for men with advanced prostate cancer. This will be done through:
Systematic reviews of treatment effects
Reviewing trial results and data in new and different ways to find out quickly which current treatments work best for which men and fast-track the best treatments to men who need them
Identification of surrogate outcomes
Trying to find early measurements of prostate cancer control that predict later survival to shorten the duration of future trials and find out the effects of new treatments quicker
A repository of patient data
Building a database of pseudonymised patient data to tackle new questions about advanced prostate cancer and its treatment as they arise and establish a worldwide collaboration of researchers to plan the most important new trials.
