Docetaxel and Diethylstilbestrol in the Treatment of Androgen Independent Prostate Cancer

Prostate Cancer

This study is for men who have prostate cancer that has spread outside of the prostate gland and is no longer responding to hormone removal therapy. This study is designed to determine if a new drug combination will help to control the cancer. The medicines being used, docetaxel and diethylstilbestrol (DES), have been given to patients with prostate cancer and each drug has demonstrated activity in prostate cancer, either used alone or in other combinations. The objective of this study is to determine the effect of this drug combination on the prostate cancer and its response to disease progression.

Hormone Therapy and Ipilimumab in Treating Patients With Advanced Prostate Cancer

Prostate AdenocarcinomaProstate Carcinoma3 more

RATIONALE: Androgens can cause the growth of prostate cancer cells. Antihormone therapy, such as leuprolide acetate, goserelin, flutamide, or bicalutamide may lessen the amount of androgens made by the body. Monoclonal antibodies, such as ipilimumab, can block cancer 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 cancer-killing substances to them. Giving antihormone therapy together with ipilimumab may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: This randomized phase II trial is study how well giving hormone therapy and ipilimumab together works in treating patients with advanced prostate cancer.

Paclitaxel and Carboplatin in Treating Patients With Metastatic Prostate Cancer That Has Not Responded...

Prostate Cancer

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining more than one drug may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of combining paclitaxel with carboplatin in treating patients who have metastatic prostate cancer that has not responded to hormone therapy.

Combination Chemotherapy With Ketoconazole in Treating Patients With Prostate Cancer

Prostate Cancer

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining more than one drug may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: Randomized phase II trial to study the effectiveness of combination chemotherapy consisting of paclitaxel, etoposide, and estramustine as compared with ketoconazole plus doxorubicin, vinblastine, and estramustine in treating patients with prostate cancer.

Hormone Therapy Plus Radiation Therapy in Treating Patients With Prostate Cancer

Prostate Cancer

RATIONALE: Androgens can stimulate the growth of prostate cancer cells. Hormone therapy using leuprolide and flutamide may fight prostate cancer by reducing the production of androgens. Combining radiation therapy with hormone therapy may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of hormone therapy plus radiation therapy in treating patients with prostate cancer.

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 dolastatin 10 in treating patients with metastatic prostate cancer that has not responded to previous hormone therapy.

Sorafenib in Treating Patients With Metastatic or Recurrent Prostate Cancer

Prostate Cancer

RATIONALE: Sorafenib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking the enzymes necessary for their growth. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying the effectiveness of sorafenib in treating patients who have metastatic or recurrent prostate cancer that has not responded to previous hormone therapy.

Combination Chemotherapy Plus Warfarin in Treating Patients With Prostate Cancer

Prostate CancerThromboembolism

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining more than one drug may kill more tumor cells. Anticoagulant drugs such as warfarin may reduce the risk of blood clots. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of combination chemotherapy plus warfarin in treating patients who have prostate cancer.

Adjuvant Radiation Therapy Plus Hormone Therapy Compared With Radiation Therapy Alone in Treating...

Prostate Cancer

RATIONALE: Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to damage tumor cells. Androgens can stimulate the growth of prostate cancer cells. Drugs such as, flutamide or bicalutamide may stop the adrenal glands from producing androgens. Giving radiation therapy with hormone therapy after surgery to remove the tumor may kill any tumor cells remaining after surgery and be an effective treatment for stage II or stage III prostate cancer. It is not yet known if radiation therapy combined with hormone therapy is more effective than either radiation therapy alone or hormone therapy alone in treating stage II or stage III prostate cancer. (Hormone therapy alone group closed as of 12/9/2002.) PURPOSE: Randomized phase III trial to compare the effectiveness of adjuvant radiation therapy plus hormone therapy to that of radiation therapy alone or hormone therapy alone in treating patients who have stage II or stage III prostate cancer.
