January 18, 2011 updated by: Benaroya Research Institute

Phase II Trial of Neoadjuvant Docetaxel and CG1940/CG8711 Followed by Radical Prostatectomy in Patients With High-Risk, Clinically Localized Prostate Cancer

The purpose of this study is to find out what effects, good and bad, the combination of docetaxel with CG1940/CG8711 (immunotherapy drugs) have on destroying prostate cancer before removal the prostate (prostatectomy).

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Patients must have clinical stage 1-3 disease and no radiographic evidence of metastatic disease
  • Nomogram Prediction: Patients must have a Kattan nomogram predicted probability of being free from biochemical progression at 5 years after surgery of <60%.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Concurrent or prior treatment with radiation, cytotoxic or biologic therapy for prostate cancer, prior hormonal therapy (except finasteride or dutasteride for obstructive voiding symptoms)
  • Male patients unwilling to use effective means of contraception are excluded. Contraception should be continued for 3 months after treatment.
  • Prior malignancy will not exclude the patient. (Patients can not have active cancer or be undergoing active treatment). The Principal Investigator will make final decision regarding eligibility since the end point is pathological complete response.

Measure Description
Time Frame
Number of Participants With Pathological Complete Response.
Time Frame: The study evaluates 4 months of docetaxel and immunotherapy prior to radical prostatectomy followed by radical prostatectomy with an additional 3 months of immunotherapy after radical prostatectomy.
CG1940/CG8711 was given along with docetaxel over a series of treatment prior to radical prostatectomy. Pathology of resected specimen was done to determine complete response, defined as no microscopic evidence of neoplastic cells in the resected specimen
The study evaluates 4 months of docetaxel and immunotherapy prior to radical prostatectomy followed by radical prostatectomy with an additional 3 months of immunotherapy after radical prostatectomy.
