NCT00450970
The SPERA trial is designed to 1. provide satraplatin to physicians with patients who have hormone refractory prostate cancer (HRPC) which has progressed following unlimited cytotoxic chemotherapy regimens for metastatic disease and 2. to evaluate the safety of oral satraplatin in this patient population.
NCT00278993
This is a multi-centre, phase II, open-label, two-stage design, single-arm study in patients with hormone-refractory prostate cancer (HRPC) with advanced (rising PSA) and/or metastatic disease and who have had prior anti-androgen therapy. The study will further explore the efficacy of E7389 by enrollment of patients into two strata: those who have had no prior systemic chemotherapy for their disease (except for mitoxantrone and estramustine), and those who failed no more than one previous chemotherapeutic regimen with tubulin-binding agents such as docetaxel.
NCT00946920
A phase 3, open-label, parallel group, one year trial comparing the efficacy and safety of degarelix 3-month depot with the established therapy goserelin acetate 3-month implant in patients with prostate cancer.
NCT00295750
The study was a three-arm, active-control, multi-centre, parallel group study.
NCT00657904
The purpose of this trial is to study the effect - in terms of time to progression and overall survival - of 2 years of adjuvant bicalutamide 150mg monotherapy, versus placebo, in subjects with histologically or cytologically confirmed non-metastatic adenocarcinoma of the prostate gland.
NCT00480623
This study is designed to measure the impact of Satraplatin plus radiation therapy to the bed of the prostate in patients who have developed biochemical failure of their prostate cancer. The main objective of this study is to determine the maximum tolerated dose and dose limiting toxicity for the combination of satraplatin and radiation therapy and to determine the recommended dose for subsequent Phase II trials.
NCT01161563
The purpose of this study is to compare how subjects feel after receiving injections of two different types of GnRH six months apart. One injection is given under the skin of the abdomen, and the other one into the muscle of the buttock or thigh.
NCT00515112
The purpose of this study is to determine whether prostate cancer growth can be slowed in patients who receive Androgel® 1% at 10 gram dose.
NCT00005992
RATIONALE: Vaccines made from a person's peripheral stem cells may make the body build an immune response to kill tumor cells. PURPOSE: Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of vaccine therapy in treating patients who have metastatic prostate cancer that has not responded to hormone therapy.
NCT00924469
The purpose of this study is to evaluate safety and efficacy of abiraterone acetate plus leuprolide acetate and prednisone, versus leuprolide acetate alone in male participants with prostate cancer (a disease in which cells in the prostate gland become abnormal and start to grow uncontrollably, forming tumors) who are suitable candidates for prostatectomy (surgery to remove all or part of the prostate gland).
NCT00992745
This is an open-label study comparing the imaging characteristics of 123-I-MIP-1072 and ProstaScint® (111-In-capromab pendetide)in patients with metastatic prostate cancer. Eligible patients will receive a dose of 123-I-MIP-1072 and have imaging studies and safety assessments (physical examination, vital signs, electrocardiogram, clinical laboratory tests) performed during the subsequent 24 hours. Two weeks later, patients will return for additional safety assessments and will receive ProstaScint® if they don't already have a pre-existing ProstaScint scan. Final assessments will be performed two weeks after the ProstaScint® scan unless there is a difference between the 123-I-MIP-1072 and ProstaScint® scans. If this is the case, another dose of 123-I-MIP-1072 will be given 12 weeks later, and imaging studies repeated.
NCT00468286
The study will have two treatment groups, evaluating two Degarelix doses. First dose is the initial dose followed by a maintenance dose given every three months. The initial dose given to suppress the testosterone level and the three month maintenance dose to maintain the suppressed testosterone level over one year of treatment.
NCT00048659
The purpose of this study is to determine if patients who take YM598 in addition to mitoxantrone and prednisone (standard therapy) experience improvement in the pain associated with prostate cancer metastases in the bone.
NCT00833248
The purpose of this phase 3B trial was to see how well a new trial drug (degarelix) works in terms of reducing the size of the prostate volume in prostate cancer patients who were scheduled to undergo subsequent radiotherapy for treatment of their prostate cancer. Prior to receiving radiotherapy, it is recommended that patients with intermediate to high risk prostate cancer are pre-treated with hormone therapy (so-called neoadjuvant therapy) which is known to reduce the size of the prostate and thereby decrease the required radiation field and enable a more safe and effective treatment. In this trial, participants were randomly selected (like flipping a coin) to receive either degarelix given alone or a standard hormone therapy (combination of goserelin and bicalutamide. The treatment was given for three months and the prostate size was measured by ultra sound at the beginning and at the end of the trial. The participants were required to come to the clinic for 5 or 6 visits during the three months.
NCT00029224
Patients with bone metastases or bone lesions caused by breast cancer, multiple myeloma or prostate cancer will be treated with IV Zometa in a 15 minute infusion. Pain will be evaluated, as well as time in chair, quality of life and safety of Zometa.
NCT00673205
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.
NCT00087139
Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as ixabepilone, work in different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. This phase II trial is studying how well ixabepilone works in treating patients with metastatic prostate cancer that has not responded to previous hormone therapy.
NCT00002723
Randomized phase III trial to compare the effectiveness of low, intermediate, and high dose suramin in treating men with stage IV prostate cancer that is refractory to hormone therapy. Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. It is not yet known which regimen of suramin is more effective for prostate cancer.
NCT00054015
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of 3-AP in treating patients who have advanced prostate cancer that has been previously treated with hormone therapy.
NCT00005960
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Giving more than one drug may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of combination chemotherapy in treating patients who have prostate cancer that has not responded to hormone therapy.
