April 3, 2013 updated by: Barbara Ann Karmanos Cancer Institute

Phase II Evaluation of Dolastatin-10 in Patients With Hormone Refractory Prostate Cancer

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die.

PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of dolastatin 10 in treating patients with metastatic prostate cancer that has not responded to previous hormone therapy.
