Doxorubicin and Strontium-89 With or Without Celecoxib in Treating Patients With Progressive Androgen-Independent Prostate Cancer and Bone Metastases

Basic Trial Information

PhaseTypeStatusAgeSponsorProtocol IDs
Phase IITreatmentClosedAny ageNCIMDA-ID-02035
NCT00080782

Special Category: SPORE trial

Objectives

  1. Compare time to prostate-specific antigen progression in patients with progressive androgen-independent prostate cancer and bone metastases treated with doxorubicin and strontium chloride Sr 89 with or without celecoxib.

Entry Criteria

Disease Characteristics:

  • Diagnosis of androgen-independent prostate cancer
    • Osteoblastic metastases
    • No predominant visceral metastases
  • Progressive disease after response to prior induction chemotherapy (prostate-specific antigen decline of at least 50% from baseline after 16 weeks of treatment)
  • No symptomatic lymphadenopathy (i.e., scrotal or pedal edema)

Prior/Concurrent Therapy:

Biologic therapy

  • Not specified

Chemotherapy

  • See Disease Characteristics

Endocrine therapy

  • Not specified

Radiotherapy

  • No prior radionuclide therapy

Surgery

  • Not specified

Other

  • No more than 3 prior cytotoxic treatments
  • More than 6 months since prior celecoxib or rofecoxib

Patient Characteristics:

  • Adequate physiologic reserves

Expected Enrollment

70

A total of 70 patients (35 per treatment arm) will be accrued for this study within 18 months.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome(s)

Time to prostate-specific antigen progression

Outline

This is a randomized study. Patients are stratified according to extent of bone metastases on bone scan (> 20 lesions vs ≤ 20 lesions) and quality of response (i.e., decline of the prostate-specific antigen from baseline) to prior induction chemotherapy (≥ 80% vs < 80%). Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 treatment arms.

  • Arm I: Patients receive doxorubicin IV over 30 minutes on days 1, 8, 15, and 22 and strontium chloride Sr 89 IV on day 1. Patients also receive oral celecoxib twice daily in the absence of disease progression.
  • Arm II: Patients receive doxorubicin and strontium chloride Sr 89 as in arm I.

Note: The purpose of most clinical trials listed in this database is to test new cancer treatments, or new methods of diagnosing, screening, or preventing cancer. Because all potentially harmful side effects are not known before a trial is conducted, dose and schedule modifications may be required for participants if they develop side effects from the treatment or test. The therapy or test described in this clinical trial is intended for use by clinical oncologists in carefully structured settings, and may not prove to be more effective than standard treatment. A responsible investigator associated with this clinical trial should be consulted before using this protocol.
