简要总结
RATIONALE: Ketoconazole may suppress the production of hormones and may interfere in the growth of prostate cancer cells. Alendronate sodium may be effective in preventing bone metastases and bone pain associated with prostate cancer. It is not known if ketoconazole is more effective with or without alendronate sodium.
PURPOSE: Randomized phase II trial to study the effectiveness of ketoconazole with or without alendronate sodium in treating patients who have metastatic prostate cancer.
详细描述
OBJECTIVES: I. Determine whether there is any evidence that ketoconazole plus alendronate sodium produces acceptable disease responses as compared with ketoconazole alone in patients with androgen-independent metastatic adenocarcinoma of the prostate.
II. Characterize the pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics and assess the bone marrow concentrations of both agents.
III. Assess matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) inhibition potential of alendronate sodium by monitoring markers of angiogenesis, MMP breakdown, and changes in hydroxyproline.
PROTOCOL OUTLINE: This is a randomized, open-label study. Patients are randomized to one of two treatment arms.
Arm I: Patients receive a single oral dose of ketoconazole on day 1. Patients begin taking ketoconazole 3 times per day on day 8.
