Filter by:This randomized phase II trial studies how well tivantinib works compared to placebo in treating patients with metastatic prostate cancer. Tivantinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.
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.
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.
This randomized phase II trial studies how well axitinib works in treating patients with high-risk prostate cancer before undergoing surgery. Axitinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving axitinib before surgery may make the tumor smaller and reduce the amount of normal cells that have to be removed
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
This is a research study for advanced prostate cancer. An experimental drug called AN-152 (also known as AEZS-108) will be used. The purpose of this study is to test the safety, tolerability and benefits of an experimental drug called AN-152. The participants tumor will be tested for expression of this receptor (using an old biopsy). If the participants cancer does not have this receptor, participants will not be eligible to participant in this study. AN-152 (AEZS-108) is administered intravenously (IV) over 2 hours and will be given at the specified dose every 3 weeks. Premedication with dexamethasone 8mg is recommended. Participants will continue treatment until death, disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, participants refusal, treatment delay >3 weeks, or the completion of 6 cycles. Continuation beyond 6 cycles is left at the discretion of the study doctor. The study is planned to last 2 years. Up to 55 (up to 18 for the Phase I portion, up to 37 for the Phase II portion).
RATIONALE: Temsirolimus may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as vinorelbine ditartrate, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving temsirolimus together with vinorelbine ditartrate may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of giving temsirolimus and vinorelbine ditartrate together in treating patients with unresectable or metastatic solid tumors.
This randomized phase II trial is studying bicalutamide, goserelin, or leuprolide acetate to see how well they work when given with or without cixutumumab in treating patients with newly diagnosed metastatic prostate cancer. Androgens can cause the growth of prostate cancer cells. Antihormone therapy, such as bicalutamide, goserelin, or leuprolide acetate, may lessen the amount of androgens made by the body. Monoclonal antibodies, such as cixutumumab, 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 carry tumor-killing substances to them. It is not yet known whether bicalutamide, goserelin, or leuprolide acetate are more effective when given with or without cixutumumab in treating prostate cancer.
RATIONALE: Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays and other types of radiation to kill tumor cells. Specialized radiation therapy, such as intensity-modulated radiation therapy, that delivers a high dose of radiation directly to the tumor may kill more tumor cells and cause less damage to normal tissue. PURPOSE: This clinical trial studies intensity-modulated external beam radiation therapy in treating patients with prostate cancer.
RATIONALE: Androgens can cause the growth of prostate cancer cells. Antihormone therapy, such as bicalutamide, may lessen the amount of androgens made by the body. Selective estrogen receptor modulators, such as raloxifene, may work together with bicalutamide to stop the growth of prostate cancer. PURPOSE: This clinical trial studies giving bicalutamide and raloxifene together in treating patients with metastatic or hormone-refractory prostate cancer.
