Standard Chemotherapy and Donor Bone Marrow Transplant after Chemotherapy in Treating Patients with Metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer

Trial Status: complete

This pilot phase I clinical trial studies how well donor bone marrow transplant works when given together with standard chemotherapy in treating patients with castration-resistant prostate cancer that has spread to other places in the body. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as fludarabine and cyclophosphamide, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving standard chemotherapy and donor bone marrow transplant may work better in treating patients with castration-resistant prostate cancer.
