About this study

Official title: Randomized Controlled Trial to Evaluate Radiotherapy Followed by Endocrine Therapy vs. Endocrine Therapy Alone for PSA Failure After Radical Prostatectomy (JCOG0401)

The purpose of this study is to evaluate radiotherapy followed by endocrine therapy in comparison with endocrine therapy alone for PSA failure after radical prostatectomy.

Read the detailed description

A randomized controlled trial is conducted in Japan to evaluate radiotherapy followed by endocrine therapy for PSA failure after radical prostatectomy. Patients who have PSA failure after radical prostatectomy under a diagnosis of localized prostate cancer (T1-2 N0M0) are randomized into treatment group of either radiotherapy followed by endocrine therapy or endocrine therapy alone. Urologic Oncology Study Group (UOSG) in the JCOG composed of 36 specialized institutions will recruit 200 patients. The primary endpoint is time to treatment failure (TTF) of bicalutamide and secondary endpoints are TTF of protocol treatment, progression free survival, overall survival, adverse events and quality of life (QOL). The Clinical Trial Review Committee of the Japan Clinical Oncology Group (JCOG) approved the protocol on April 13, 2004, and the study was activated on May 17, 2004.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing endocrine therapy and radiotherapy in people with Prostate Cancer, run by Haruhiko Fukuda at 34 sites in Japan.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 11 inclusion and 9 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 Sep 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 34 sites in Japan. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

time to treatment failure (TTF) of bicalutamide (time frame: time to treatment failure (TTF) of bicalutamide). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 22 Sep 2016.
