NCT01023061
This phase II trial studies the side effects and how well abiraterone acetate, prednisone, and leuprolide acetate or goserelin before and during radiation therapy works in treating patients with localized or locally advanced prostate cancer. Androgens can cause the growth of prostate cancer cells. Antihormone therapy, such as abiraterone acetate, leuprolide acetate, and goserelin, may lessen the amount of androgens made by the body. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to kill tumor cells. Giving abiraterone acetate and leuprolide acetate or goserelin before or together with radiation therapy may be an effective treatment for prostate cancer.
NCT00482274
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as docetaxel, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well docetaxel works in treating patients with relapsed prostate cancer.
NCT00769795
The purpose of this study is to determine whether combination treatment of prostate cancer with IMC-A12 (an antibody which blocks insulin-like growth factor receptor activity) with hormonal therapy (testosterone lowering) before prostatectomy, will be more effective than prior results with hormonal therapy alone.
