Terminated
Conditions
Prostate Cancer

Registration Number
NCT02749825
Lead Sponsor
Pharmatech
Brief Summary

This research study looks at Testosterone levels in patients receiving Trelstar versus those receiving Lupron or Zoladex. These drugs have been approved for treatment of Prostate Cancer by the FDA.

Detailed Description

Patients who are currently receiving Lupron or Zoladex will be consented and then randomized to receive either continued treatment with the drug they have been on, or will be randomized to Trelstar for a period of 3 months. At the end of that period, testosterone and prostate serum antigen (PSA) levels will be drawn and compared to their previous levels to determine if Trelstar is as effective as the previous treatment.
