Doxercalciferol Before Surgery in Treating Localized Prostate Cancer
- Conditions
- Prostate Cancer
- Interventions
- Dietary Supplement: doxercalciferolProcedure: conventional surgery
- Registration Number
- NCT00022412
- Lead Sponsor
- University of Wisconsin, Madison
- Brief Summary
RATIONALE: Doxercalciferol may be an effective way to treat localized prostate cancer before surgery.
PURPOSE: Randomized phase II trial to study the effectiveness of giving doxercalciferol before surgery in treating patients who have localized prostate cancer.
- Detailed Description
OBJECTIVES:
* Determine whether doxercalciferol modulates intermediate endpoint biomarkers in the development of prostate cancer in patients with localized prostate cancer.
* Assess the toxicity of this drug in these patients.
OUTLINE: This is a randomized, open-label, multicenter study. Patients are randomized to one of 2 arms.
* Arm I: Patients receive doxercalciferol once daily for 28 days. Patients then undergo prostatectomy.
* Arm II: Patients undergo observation for 28 days. Patients then undergo prostatectomy.
PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 60 patients (30 per arm) will be accrued for this study within 18 months.
