Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages Any age
  • Men only
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Child, Adult, Older adult

Study population: inpatients with CRPC in 9 hospitals

Who may be able to join

  • Eligible patients had histologically or cytologically confirmed adenocarcinoma of the prostate with clinical or radiologic evidence of disease progression during hormonal therapy
  • Patients were receiving primary androgen-ablation therapy as maintenance therapy. At least four weeks had to have elapsed between the withdrawal of antiandrogens (six weeks in the case of bicalutamide) and enroll ment, so as to avoid the possibility of confounding as a result of the response to antiandrogen withdrawal.
  • Another requirement was disease progression, as indicated by increasing serum levels of PSA on three consecutive measurements obtained at least one week apart or findings on physical examination or imaging studies.
  • Normal cardiac function was required.

Who cannot join

  • patients had a Karnofsky performance-status score of at most 60 percent
  • prior treatment with cytotoxic agents or radioisotopes
  • with history of another cancer within the preceding five years, brain or leptomeningeal metastases, symptomatic peripheral neuropathy of grade 2 or higher, and other serious medical condition.

What is being measured

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

  1. overall survival

    Measured: From the date of biochemical or clinical recurrence of prostate cancer following hormonal therapy to December 31, 2016 or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 3 years.

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. prostate cancer specific mortality

    Measured: From the date of biochemical or clinical recurrence of prostate cancer following hormonal therapy to December 31, 2016 or death from prostate cancer or treatment complications, whichever came first, assessed up to 3 years.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Hormone Refractory Prostate Cancer, run by Zhengzhou University at 1 site in China.

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 4 inclusion and 3 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 4 May 2012. 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 China. 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.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Liu Bingqian, MD Ph.D (86-371-66862101, liubq76@yahoo.com.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

overall survival (time frame: From the date of biochemical or clinical recurrence of prostate cancer following hormonal therapy to December 31, 2016 or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 3 years.). 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 4 May 2012.
