February 18, 2011 updated by: Abbott

A Phase III Extension Study to Evaluate the Safety of 10 mg Atrasentan in Men 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 III trial to determine the effectiveness of atrasentan in treating patients who have prostate cancer that has not responded to hormone therapy.

Detailed Description

OBJECTIVES:

  • Determine the safety of atrasentan in patients with hormone-refractory prostate cancer.
  • Determine the pharmacokinetics of this drug in these patients.

OUTLINE: This is an open-label, multicenter study.

Patients receive oral atrasentan once daily for 3 years in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Patients are followed at 1 month and then every 3 months for 2 years.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: Approximately 1,400 patients will be accrued for this study.
