A Prospective Randomized Phase III Study Comparing Hormonal Therapy +/-Docetaxel (RisingPSA)

September 30, 2008 updated by: Assistance Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris

Non-Metastatic High-Risk Prostate Cancer Patients With Biochemical Relapse Only After Local Treatment. A Prospective Randomized Phase III Study Comparing Hormonal Therapy +/-Docetaxel

The primary objective was to evaluate the PSA (biochemical) progression-free survival (PFS) of high-risk metastasis-free PC patients, treated with LH-RH agonist for one year with or without docetaxel after prior radical prostatectomy (RP) or radiotherapy (RT).

The study was powered at 80% to detect a 25% improvement in biochemical PFS for a total sample size estimated at 252 patients, with a two-sided type I error rate of 5% (non-parametric methods.

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

Docetaxel was shown to be active in metastatic hormone-refractory prostate cancer (PC) in phase III trials (1-2). It is likely to demonstrate a substantial role in the management of early-stage PC patients in the neoadjuvant and adjuvant settings, where clinical trials are underway.•53% of all men who undergo radical prostatectomy will develop prostate-specific antigen (PSA) elevations in the 10 years following surgery, with approximately 77% of these recurrences occurring within the first 2 years.A prospective, multicenter, national, randomized, two-arm, phase III study comparing hormonal treatment (LH-RH agonist alone) with or without docetaxel was designed to evaluate the interest of chemotherapy in non-metastatic prostate cancer patients at high risk of systemic recurrence after initial treatment (radical prostatectomy or radiotherapy).

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Time Frame
The primary endpoint was the PSA (biochemical) progression-free survival (PFS) of high-risk metastasis-free PC patients, treated with LH-RH agonist for one year with or without docetaxel after prior radical prostatectomy (RP) or radiotherapy (RT).
Time Frame: Every month during 5 years.
Every month during 5 years.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Time Frame
Secondary endpoints were metastasis-free survival, PSA response (decrease > 50 % of the PSA), overall survival, cancer specific survival, safety and quality of life (QoL).
Time Frame: Every month during 5 years
Every month during 5 years
