Completed
Conditions

NCT00005820
Lead Sponsor
Alliance for Clinical Trials in Oncology
Brief Summary

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 nitrocamptothecin in treating men who have stage IV prostate cancer that has not responded to hormone therapy.

Detailed Description

OBJECTIVES:

* Determine the therapeutic efficacy of nitrocamptothecin in patients with metastatic, hormone refractory prostate cancer.

* Determine time to disease progression and duration of response in this patient population as a result of this treatment regimen.

* Determine the safety, tolerance, and toxicity of this treatment regimen in these patients.

OUTLINE: Patients receive nitrocamptothecin orally daily for 5 consecutive days each week for 3 consecutive weeks. Treatment continues every 4 weeks in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Patients are followed every 3 months until evidence of progression or relapse for a maximum of 2 years from the date of registration.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 22-46 patients will be accrued for this study over 2 years.
