Trial summary

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as docetaxel, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well docetaxel works in treating patients with relapsed prostate cancer. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Phase II Study of the Early Use of Docetaxel in Patients With Biochemical Relapse After Primary Therapy for Prostate Cancer and an Incomplete Response to Androgen Deprivation Therapy.

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as docetaxel, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing.

PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well docetaxel works in treating patients with relapsed prostate cancer.

Read the detailed description

OBJECTIVES:

Primary

  • Determine the complete response rate in patients with biochemically-relapsed, hormone-sensitive prostate cancer treated with docetaxel.

Secondary

  • Determine the time to PSA recurrence in patients receiving this treatment.
  • Determine the time to metastatic disease in patients receiving this treatment.
  • Determine the time to androgen independent state in patients receiving this treatment.
  • Determine the time to death from any cause in patients receiving this treatment.

OUTLINE: This is an open label study.

Patients receive docetaxel IV over 60 minutes on day 1. Treatment repeats every 21 days for 4-6 courses in the absence of unacceptable toxicity or disease progression.

After completion of study therapy, patients are followed periodically for up to 5 years.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 36 patients will be accrued for this study.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • docetaxelDrug

    Also called Taxotere

    Docetaxel 75 mg/m2 intravenously (IV) over 60 minutes will be given on day 1 of each 21 day cycle.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Number of Participants With a Complete Response as Measured by Serum PSA Less Than 0.2 ng/ml

    Complete response rate, as measured by PSA and defined as a PSA ≤0.2 ng/ml in PSA-relapsed, hormone-sensitive patients treated with docetaxel.

    Measured: While receiving study treatment (approximately 6 months)

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Average Time for Participants to Develop PSA Recurrence (PSA > 0.2ng/ml)

    Average time for participants to develop PSA recurrence (PSA > 0.2ng/ml). Due to the limited enrollment, this analysis was not completed.

    Measured: Average days to develop recurrence from treatment start date amount applicable participants

  2. Time to Metastatic Disease

    Due to the limited enrollment, this analysis was not completed.

    Measured: Measured at Time of documented metastases (no historical estimate is available)

  3. Time to Androgen Independent State

    Due to the limited enrollment, this analysis was not completed.

    Measured: Measured at date of documented androgen independence (no estimate available)

  4. Time to Death From Any Cause

    Due to the limited enrollment, this analysis was not completed.

    Measured: measured at date of death (no estimate available)

Timeline

From the start of the study to its completion; the mark is today. Estimated dates are the sponsor’s plan.

  1. First posted5 Jun 2007 (estimated)
  2. Study startMay 2007
  3. Primary completionJul 2009
  4. Study completionJul 2009

Why it stopped: Drug supplier stopped funding due to loss of study drug (docetaxel) patent.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing docetaxel in people with Prostate Cancer, run by OHSU Knight Cancer Institute at 2 sites in United States.

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 9 inclusion and 8 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 Apr 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in United States. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 24 Aug 2010). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Number of Participants With a Complete Response as Measured by Serum PSA Less Than 0.2 ng/ml (time frame: While receiving study treatment (approximately 6 months)). 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 28 Apr 2017.
