Filter by:This is a randomized, open-label, multi-center study comparing the safety and efficacy of XRP6258 plus prednisone to mitoxantrone plus prednisone in the treatment of hormone refractory metastatic prostate cancer previously treated with a Taxotere®-containing regimen. The primary objective is overall survival. Secondary objectives include progression free survival, overall response rate, prostate-specific antigen (PSA) response/progression, pain response/progression, overall safety, and pharmacokinetics. Patients will be treated until disease progression, death, unacceptable toxicity, or for a maximum of 10 cycles. Patients will have long-term follow-up for a maximum of up to 2 years.
This pilot clinical trial studies how well using the internet to collect symptoms and the ability to carry out daily activities works in patients with enrolled on Cancer and Leukemia Group B (CALGB) studies. A study that evaluates a patient's ability to use a clinic waiting room computer to report their symptoms and their ability to carry out daily activities may help doctors understand a patient's use of a computer to report symptoms.
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as docetaxel, doxorubicin, and prednisone, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving more than one drug (combination chemotherapy) may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well giving docetaxel, doxorubicin, and prednisone together works in treating patients with advanced prostate cancer that has not responded to hormone therapy.
RATIONALE: Chemoprevention is the use of certain substances to keep cancer from forming, growing, or coming back. Eating a diet high in lycopene, a substance found in tomatoes and tomato products, may keep cancer from forming or growing. Collecting and storing samples of blood from patients with cancer to study in the laboratory may help doctors learn more about changes that may occur in DNA and identify biomarkers related to cancer. PURPOSE: This randomized clinical trial is studying how well lycopene works in treating patients with prostate cancer or benign prostatic hyperplasia.
RATIONALE: Chemoprevention is the use of certain drugs or substances to keep cancer from forming, growing, or coming back. The use of lycopene, a substance found in tomatoes, may keep prostate cancer from forming in patients at high risk of developing prostate cancer. PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of lycopene in preventing prostate cancer in patients who are at high risk of developing prostate cancer.
This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of docetaxel when given with zoledronic acid in patients with bone metastasis from prostate cancer that has not responded to hormone therapy.
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety of combining Sorafenib and chemotherapy (mitoxantrone or docetaxel) in patients with AIPC.
Primary Objective: To compare the effects of daily consumption of pomegranate liquid extract, and placebo on end-of-treatment (52 weeks) prostate-specific antigen (PSA) doubling time in male subjects who have rising serum PSA levels after primary therapy for localized prostate cancer. Secondary Objectives: 1. To determine the effect of the pomegranate treatments on the change in serum PSA doubling time from baseline to end-of-treatment. 2. To evaluate the effects of the pomegranate treatments on changes in the health-related quality of life (QOL) 3. To determine the time to tumor recurrence 4. To assess the tolerability and toxicity of the pomegranate treatments 5. To determine the effect of the pomegranate treatments on response rates for positive serum PSA doubling times and for declining post-treatment serum PSA levels (negative doubling times)
The objective of this study is to assess the response of patupilone plus prednisone compared to docetaxel plus prednisone on prostate specific antigen (PSA) in patients with metastatic hormone refractory prostate cancer. Additionally, this study will assess the response on measureable disease and the effects on patient-reported outcomes.
The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy of patupilone chemotherapy and to find out what effects (good and bad) the drug Patupilone has on patients with prostate cancer that has progressed following hormone treatment and docetaxel chemotherapy.
