Arm Type

Experimental

No Intervention

Arm Label

Arm A (antihormone therapy)

Arm B (no antihormone therapy)

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Biochemical Progression-free Survival Rate
Biochemical progression-free survival (BPFS) was defined as the time from randomization to the time of biochemical progression. If a patient dies without a documentation of biochemical progression, the patient will be considered to have had progressed at the time of death.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Number of Deaths
The number of deaths due to any cause are reported below.
Percentage of Participants With Grade 3 or Higher Adverse Events Regardless of Attribution
Percentage of Participants with Grade 3 or Higher Adverse Events regardless of attribution per NCI CTCAE Version 3
Average Overall FACT-P Total Score at Baseline, Months 3 and 6
The overall FACT-P Total Score at Baseline and months 3 and 6 mean and standard deviations are reported below. The FACT-P is a multidimensional, self-reported quality of life instrument consisting of 27 core items that assess participant function in 4 domains: physical, social/family, emotional, functional well-being, and supplemented by 12 site-specific items to assess for prostate-related symptoms. Each item is rated on a 0 to 4 Likert-type scale, and then combined to produce subscale scores for each domain, as well as a global quality of life score which is the sum of all 5 domain scores and ranges from 0 to 156 where higher scores represent better quality of life.
Average LASA Overall Quality of Life at Baseline, Months 3 and 6
LASA Overall Quality of Life at Baseline, Months 3 and 6. Quality of Life (QOL) was measured using the single-item Linear Analogue Self Assessment (LASA) on a 0-10 scale, with 0=as bad as it can be and 10=as good as it can be. The average and standard deviation of the LASA overall quality of life score are reported below at baseline, months 3 and 6.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
This randomized phase II trial studies the side effects and how well giving leuprolide acetate or goserelin acetate works compared to observation in treating patients with high-risk prostate cancer who have undergone radical prostatectomy. Androgens can cause the growth of prostate cancer cells. Antihormone therapy, such as goserelin acetate and leuprolide acetate, may lessen the amount of androgens made by the body and thus control prostate cancer growth. Many times, after surgery, the tumor may not need more treatment until it progresses. In this case, observation may be sufficient. However, in some prostate cancers there is a chance that tumors can re-grow despite surgery based on certain high risk features.
Detailed Description
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: I. To compare the difference in the biochemical progression-free survival rate (bPFS) at 2-years between immediate androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) for nine months in high risk prostate cancer patients following radical prostatectomy and a similar high risk patient population followed without initiation of immediate ADT treatment. SECONDARY OBJECTIVES: I. To determine the difference in bPFS, prostate cancer specific survival, and overall survival between immediate ADT for nine months and observation for high risk prostate cancer patients following radical prostatectomy. II. To evaluate the toxicity profile and quality of life (QOL) measured by Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Prostate (FACT-P) and linear analogue self assessment (LASA) between two treatment arms. TERTIARY OBJECTIVES: I. To explore if serum and urine biomarker(s) levels at study entry, 9 months, or 24 months in the two treatment arms are correlated with biochemical progression-free survival rate. II. To explore if > 5 circulating tumor cells (CTCs) or circulating endothelial cells (CECs) following study treatments are associated with biochemical progression-free survival rate. III. To explore the prognostic and predictive value of tissue based biomarkers in high risk prostate cancer patients. OUTLINE: Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 treatment arms. ARM A: Patients receive leuprolide acetate intramuscularly (IM) on day 1 OR goserelin acetate subcutaneously (SC) on day 1. Courses repeat every 3 months for 9 months in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. ARM B: Patients undergo observation every 3 months for 9 months. After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up every three months for 2 years.
