NCT00887432

Brief Summary

This randomized clinical trial studies how well cholecalciferol supplement works in treating patients with localized prostate cancer undergoing observation. Cholecalciferol may help prostate cancer cells become more like normal cells, and to grow and spread more slowly.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • PSA Response

    Difference in the mean change in PSA on vitamin D (9 month period: pre-Vitamin D to 9 months after start of vitamin D) versus on placebo (9 month period: pre-Placebo to 9 months after starting placebo). Compared using a paired t-test.

    9 month period: pre-Vitamin D/pre-placebo to 9 months after start of vitamin D/ placebo, up to 30 days after completion of study treatment

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Slope of PSA Concentration Over Time

    9 month period: pre-Vitamin D/pre-placebo to 9 months after start of vitamin D/ placebo, up to 30 days after completion of study treatment -Up to 30 days after completion of study treatment

  • Toxicity as Assessed by National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events Version 3.0

    Up to 30 days after completion of study treatment (up to 22 months from start of study).

Study Arms (2)

Arm I (cholecalciferol and placebo)

EXPERIMENTAL

Patients receive cholecalciferol PO QD for 9 months in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. After a wash-out period of 3 months, patients cross-over to Arm II.

Arm II (placebo and cholecalciferol)

Eligibility Criteria

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

You may qualify if:

  • Any patient with clinically localized, histologically proven adenocarcinoma of prostate who has not received any treatment for prostate cancer ever and has chosen active surveillance; treatment for prostate cancer is defined as prostatectomy, androgen deprivation, brachytherapy or a full course of external beam irradiation
  • Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 or 1
  • Willingness to comply with study guidelines
  • Willingness and ability to consent
  • (OH) D3 level less than 40 ng/ml within 3 months of initiation of study; most recent 25 hydroxy D level within last 3 month would be used

You may not qualify if:

  • History of malabsorption syndrome e.g., pancreatic insufficiency, celiac disease, tropical sprue
  • Creatinine \> 2.0 mg/dL
  • Corrected serum calcium level of \> 10.5 mg/dL (serum corrected calcium = serum calcium + 0.8\[4-serum albumin\])
  • Most recent PSA value more than 18 months ago
  • Prior or current therapy for prostate cancer
  • Documented history of nephrolithiasis within the past 5 years
  • Patients receiving finasteride (Proscar) or dutasteride (Avodart) or men who have received either agent within 90 days of entry are ineligible
  • Patients cannot take any additional vitamin D supplementation during study treatment; patients taking \> 2000 IU per day prior to treatment will be ineligible
