Filter by:RATIONALE: Androgens can cause the growth of prostate cancer cells. Antihormone therapy, such as leuprolide and bicalutamide, may lessen the amount of androgens made by the body. Implant radiation therapy kills tumor cells by placing material such as radioactive iodine directly into or near a tumor. Giving leuprolide and bicalutamide together with implant radiation therapy may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying the side effects of giving leuprolide and bicalutamide together with implant radiation therapy and to see how well it works in treating patients with locally recurrent prostate cancer after external-beam radiation therapy.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether IMC-A12 or IMC-1121B (ramucirumab) with Mitoxantrone and Prednisone is effective in the treatment of metastatic androgen- independent prostate cancer (APIC).
This is a Phase II study to test the efficacy of exogenously administered GM-CSF in prostate cancer patients who have failed definitive local therapy, and have only serologic (PSA) evidence of progression.
The purpose of the study is to see if a green tea extract can beneficially alter several markers of cancer risk and progression.
This study will use high field MRI (3 Tesla), PET and biomarker to follow prostate cancers and determine if these tests can detect cancers that become aggressive.
The primary objective is to determine the efficacy of docetaxel plus carboplatin as first line treatment in patients with hormone refractory prostate cancer.
The purpose of this trial is to study the effect of adjuvant or immediate hormonal therapy, versus placebo, in subjects who have either undergone a primary therapy (principally radical prostatectomy or radiotherapy) or who were otherwise to be managed by watchful waiting.
The combination of ketaconazole and hydrocortisone is commonly used for the treatment of prostate cancer. The purpose of this study is to determine if the addition of a drug called dutasteride to this approved combination will make the combination more effective in treating prostate cancer.
The purpose of this study is to look at blood and tissue samples for changes following the use of Sunitinib malate. Additionally, we would like to find out if the drug, Sunitinib malate, is safe and works in men with prostate cancer. Sunitinib malate , also known as Sutent, is approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), for treatment of tumors of intestines and kidney but it is being tested in research studies for use in men with prostate cancer.
The purpose of this trial is to study the effect of adjuvant or immediate hormonal therapy, versus placebo, in subjects who have either undergone a primary therapy (principally radical prostatectomy or radiotherapy) or who were otherwise to be managed by watchful waiting.
