Outcomes
Primary Outcome Measures
Apoptosis Index, defined as the percent positive staining cells
Percent positively staining cells with a minimum of 1000 total cells counted. Descriptive statistics will be conducted. The apoptotic index will be reported with 95% confidence intervals.
Secondary Outcome Measures
Prostaglandin and Androgen Receptor Levels
Descriptive statistical analysis will be conducted. The estimates will be reported with 95% confidence intervals.
Percent Change in Median PSA Values, pre- and postoperatively
Pre- and postoperative PSA will be collected. Descriptive statistics will be conducted, comparing preoperative PSA level to postoperative level.
Perioperative Analgesic Use, using morphine equivalents
Descriptive statistical analysis will be conducted. The estimate will be calculated using morphine equivalents dividend by length of hospital stay and reported with 95% confidence intervals.
Surgical Complications, defined as incidence of adverse events determined to be related to surgery graded by NCI CTCAE version 2.0
Intraoperative and post surgical complications will be collected and reported.
Incidence of Adverse Events, graded by NCI CTCAE version 2.0
Descriptive statistical analysis will be conducted

5. Study Description
Brief Summary
This study will seek to determine if the downstream effects of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) inhibition suggested by preclinical systems occur in human prostate cancer. To answer this question, men who have chosen prostatectomy will be randomly assigned to preoperative treatment with celecoxib or placebo for four weeks. Carefully collected tumor, premalignant, and benign prostate tissue will then be examined for apoptosis, androgen receptor and prostaglandin E2 levels. Tumor COX-2 expression will be correlated with observed treatment effects. The data generated by this study will serve as a foundation for the development of COX-2 targeted therapies for prostate cancer, will provide preliminary evidence for larger scale clinical trials aimed at treatment and prevention of prostate cancer, and will validate current preclinical models used to study COX-2 in prostate cancer.
Detailed Description
PRIMARY OBJECTIVE
I. To determine if COX-2 inhibition with celecoxib significantly increases apoptosis in human adenocarcinoma of the prostate.
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES
I. To determine if COX-2 inhibition with celecoxib reduces levels of Prostaglandin E2 and androgen receptor in fresh tumor tissue collected at prostatectomy
II. To collect pre- and postoperative serum Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) for exploratory analyses
III. To determine the effect of celecoxib on adverse effects, perioperative surgical complications and post surgery analgesic use
