Luteinizing Hormone-Releasing Hormone Agonist Therapy and Iodine I 125 Implant in Treating Patients With Previously Untreated Prostate Cancer
A Phase 3 study testing Adjuvant therapy, Neoadjuvant therapy and Brachytherapy(iodine I 125) in people with Prostate Cancer, run by Translational Research Center for Medical Innovation, Kobe, Hyogo, Japan at 1 site in Japan.
Trial summary
RATIONALE: Androgens can cause the growth of prostate cancer cells. Luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone agonists may lessen the amount of androgens made by the body. Internal radiation uses radioactive material placed directly into or near a tumor to kill tumor cells. Read more about this study

About this study
Official title: A Phase III, Multicenter, Randomized, Controlled Study of Neoadjuvant LHRH-agonist Therapy and Permanent I-125 Implantation With vs. Without Adjuvant LHRH-agonist Therapy in Patients With Untreated Intermediate-risk Prostate Cancer.
RATIONALE: Androgens can cause the growth of prostate cancer cells. Luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone agonists may lessen the amount of androgens made by the body. Internal radiation uses radioactive material placed directly into or near a tumor to kill tumor cells. Giving luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone agonist together with an iodine I 125 implant may be an effective treatment for patients with prostate cancer.
PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying how well giving luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone agonist therapy together with an iodine I 125 implant works with or without additional luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone agonist therapy in treating patients with previously untreated prostate cancer.
Read the detailed description
OBJECTIVES:
- To evaluate the biochemical progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival, clinical PFS, and disease-free survival of patients with previously untreated intermediate-risk prostate cancer treated with neoadjuvant luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LHRH) agonist therapy and permanent iodine I 125 implantation with vs without adjuvant LHRH agonist therapy.
- To determine the non-adaptive interval to salvage therapy in patients treated with these regimens.
- To determine the safety of these regimens in these patients.
OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study. Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 treatment arms.
- Arm I: Patients receive neoadjuvant luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LHRH) agonist therapy for up to 3 months and undergo permanent iodine I 125 implantation. Patients then receive adjuvant LHRH agonist therapy for up to 9 months.
- Arm II: Patients receive neoadjuvant LHRH agonist therapy and undergo permanent iodine I 125 implantation as in arm I.

Measured: Baseline and Month 60 after TPPB
Adverse events (AE)
The incident propotion of adverse event grade above 3 by National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events version 3.0 (NCI-CTCAE v3.0) will be compared.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 3 study testing Adjuvant therapy, Neoadjuvant therapy and Brachytherapy(iodine I 125) in people with Prostate Cancer, run by Translational Research Center for Medical Innovation, Kobe, Hyogo, Japan at 1 site in Japan.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
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 24 Jul 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 1 site 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?
Biochemical progression-free survival (bPFS) (time frame: 7 years). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00664456, which also lists 6 linked publications.
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 24 Jul 2023.
