NCT00955435

Brief Summary

RATIONALE: Studying samples of blood and urine from patients with cancer in the laboratory may help doctors learn more about changes that occur in DNA and identify biomarkers related to cancer. It may also help doctors predict how patients will respond to treatment. PURPOSE: This clinical trial is studying blood and urine samples in patients with newly diagnosed localized prostate cancer treated with hormone therapy and radiation therapy.

Interventions

Patients receive induction hormones\* (bicalutimide and releasing-hormone agonist) for approximately 4 months prior to starting radiotherapy per standard treatment. Patients then receive radiotherapy consisting of 74 Gy up to a maximum of 81 Gy to the prostate gland per standard treatment.

Sampling MethodNon-Probability Sample
Study Population

Patients diagnosed with localised prostate cancer who will receive radiation therapy plus hormonal therapy, for 4 - 8 months, are eligible for the trial. Patients will be eligible to participate in the trial provided they have not received prior therapy for their prostate cancer. It is planned that 60 patients will participate in the research study. All patients will receive approx 4 months of induction hormone therapy (LHRH agonist and Bicalutamide) prior to starting radiotherapy treatment.

You may qualify if:

  • Age 18 years or over.
  • Histologically confirmed invasive adenocarcinoma of the prostate (by TURP or TRUS).
  • Localised prostate cancer with a Gleason score 7
  • Short term hormonal treatment 4-8 months
  • Performance status of KPS ≥ 60 / WHO 0-2
  • Absence of distant metastases

You may not qualify if:

  • The patient has previously received treatment for prostate cancer other than TURP/ TRUS
  • The patient has had a bilateral orchidectomy
  • The patient has previously received hormonal treatment for prostate cancer
  • Evidence of any other significant clinical disorder or laboratory finding that makes it undesirable for the patient to participate in the trial. In the opinion of the investigator, any evidence of severe or uncontrolled systematic disease (e.g. unstable or uncompensated respiratory, cardiac, hepatic or renal disease
  • The patient has or had other co-existing malignancies within the past 5 years other than non- melanoma skin cancer
  • Treatment with non-approved or investigational drug within 30 days before day one of the trial
