NCT ID: NCT01697384 Completed - Prostate Cancer Clinical Trials

Study to Evaluate Efficacy and Safety of Histrelin Subdermal Implant in Men With Advanced Prostate Cancer

Start date: April 2000
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

Objective was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the histrelin acetate subdermal implant (originally versus Lupron Depot-3 Month) in male patients with advanced prostate cancer during 52 weeks of treatment with the implant. After consultation w/ FDA, design was modified to eliminate the Lupron arm and continued the study as an open-label non-randomized study. Primary endpoint was testosterone suppression, as assessed by the percent of patients whose testosterone indicated chemical castration levels (<=50 ng/dL) through 52 weeks of treatment with an implant.

NCT ID: NCT01664130 Completed - Clinical trials for Adenocarcinoma of the Prostate

High-Dose Stereotactic Radiation for Prostate Cancer

Start date: July 2012
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This clinical trial studies high-dose stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) in treating patients with low-, intermediate-, or high-risk localized prostate cancer. SBRT may be able to send x-rays directly to the tumor and cause less damage to normal tissue

NCT ID: NCT01656304 Completed - Clinical trials for Adenocarcinoma of the Prostate

Bevacizumab in Treating Patients With Relapsed Prostate Cancer That Did Not Respond to Hormone Therapy

Start date: May 2007
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

This pilot phase II trial studies how well giving bevacizumab works in treating patients with relapsed prostate cancer that did not respond to hormone therapy. Monoclonal antibodies, such as bevacizumab, can block tumor growth in different ways. Some block the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Others find tumor cells and help kill them or tumor-killing substances to them. Bevacizumab may also stop the growth of prostate cancer by blocking blood flow to the tumor

NCT ID: NCT01533246 Completed - Clinical trials for Adenocarcinoma of the Prostate

Linsitinib in Treating Patients With Asymptomatic or Mildly Symptomatic Metastatic Prostate Cancer

Start date: February 2012
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

This phase II trial studies how well linsitinib works in treating patients with asymptomatic or mild symptomatic metastatic prostate cancer. Linsitinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.

NCT ID: NCT01498978 Completed - Clinical trials for Adenocarcinoma of the Prostate

Ipilimumab in Combination With Androgen Suppression Therapy in Treating Patients With Metastatic Hormone-Resistant Prostate Cancer

Start date: February 6, 2012
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

This phase II trial studies how well ipilimumab works when given together with androgen suppression therapy in treating patients with hormone-resistant prostate cancer that has spread to other parts of the body. Monoclonal antibodies, such as ipilimumab, can block tumor growth in different ways. Some block the ability of tumors to grow and spread. Others find tumor cells and help kill them or carry tumor-killing substances to them. Androgen can cause the growth of prostate cancer. Androgen deprivation therapy may stop the adrenal glands from making androgen. Giving ipilimumab together with androgen suppression therapy may kill more tumor cells.

NCT ID: NCT01468532 Completed - Clinical trials for Adenocarcinoma of the Prostate

Docetaxel, Prednisone, and Pasireotide in Treating Patients With Metastatic Hormone-Resistant Prostate Cancer

Start date: October 2011
Phase: Phase 1/Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of pasireotide and to see how well it works when given together with docetaxel and prednisone in treating patients with metastatic hormone-resistant prostate cancer. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as docetaxel and prednisone, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Pasireotide may inhibit the secretion of hormones. Giving pasireotide together with docetaxel and prednisone may kill more tumor cells.

NCT ID: NCT01433913 Completed - Clinical trials for Adenocarcinoma of the Prostate

Metformin Hydrochloride in Treating Patients With Prostate Cancer Undergoing Surgery

Start date: November 2011
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

This randomized phase II trial studies how well metformin hydrochloride works compared to placebo in treating patients with prostate cancer undergoing surgery. Metformin hydrochloride may make some enzymes active. These enzymes may block other enzymes needed for cell growth and stop the growth of tumor cells.

NCT ID: NCT01408706 Completed - Clinical trials for Adenocarcinoma of the Prostate

The Prostate Immobilization Device Study

Start date: August 2011
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to compare reproducibility of the device position and location of the prostate rectum interface between two immobilization devices for radiation therapy of prostate carcinoma.

NCT ID: NCT01394263 Completed - Prostate Cancer Clinical Trials

Study of Histrelin Subdermal Implant in Patients With Prostate Cancer

Start date: May 2000
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

This trial was an open-label, multi-national, randomized, parallel treatment, active-control multicenter study in adult males with documented metastatic prostate cancer disease who were judged to be candidates for hormone therapy.

NCT ID: NCT01270880 Completed - Clinical trials for Adenocarcinoma of the Prostate

Hsp90 Inhibitor STA-9090 in Treating Patients With Metastatic Hormone-Resistant Prostate Cancer Previously Treated With Docetaxel-Based Chemotherapy

Start date: January 2011
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

Hsp90 inhibitor STA-9090 may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the proteins needed for cell growth. This phase II trial is studying how well Hsp90 inhibitor STA-9090 works in treating patients with metastatic hormone-resistant prostate cancer previously treated with docetaxel-based chemotherapy
