Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • PSA Response Rate

    To investigate the effect of a treatment with Imatinib mesylate, Pioglitazone , Etoricoxib, and Dexamethasone in combination with metronomic chemotherapy (Treosulfane) on the PSA response rate in patients with hormone refractory prostate cancer. A patient will be defined as a responder if a PSA decline of at least 50%, which must be confirmed by a second PSA value 4 weeks later, is observed. A patient will be defined as a non-responder if PSA has not decreased during treatment. Non-response is defined as a 25% increase over the baseline on-study which is confirmed (equal or more) by a second value 4 weeks apart. The absolute increase must account for \> 5 ng/ml.

    up to 24 weeks

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • Time to PSA Response

    every 4 weeks up to 24 weeks

  • Time to Progression-free Survival

    every 4 weeks up to 24 weeks

  • Overall Survival Rate

    every 4 weeks up to 24 weeks

  • Quality of Life Assessed With EORTC-30

    baseline and Final Visit (week 24)

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexmale
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Histologically confirmed prostate carcinoma, which has proven progression after primary hormone therapy (surgical or medicinal castration).
  • Patients must have increasing PSA levels (within 3 months prior to enrollment) with at least two consecutively increasing PSA levels.
  • At least 18 years of age.
  • At least capable of self care and up of at least 50% of waking hours (ECOG performance status 0 - 2), adequate bone marrow function and lab results.

You may not qualify if:

  • Prior chemotherapy
  • Therapy with Imatinib, or therapy with other inhibitors of tyrosinkinase.
  • Second neoplasm diagnosed within 5 years before study start.
  • Patients who require therapy with warfarin
  • Known diagnosis of HIV, hepatitis B, or hepatitis C infection.
  • Severe, unstable, or uncontrolled medical disease which would confound diagnoses or evaluations required by the protocol, including severe cardiac insufficiency
  • Prior therapy with isotopes strontium or rhenium.
  • Treatment with other experimental substances within 30 days before study start.
