Study Summary

RATIONALE: Testosterone can stimulate the growth of prostate cancer cells. Hormone therapy using leuprolide and flutamide may fight prostate cancer by reducing the production of testosterone. It is not yet known whether receiving leuprolide and flutamide is more effective than receiving no further therapy. PURPOSE: Randomized phase III trial to determine the effectiveness of hormone therapy in treating patients who have stage I or stage II prostate cancer that is at high risk of recurrence and who have already undergone surgery.

Primary Outcome

To determine if one year of adjuvant hormonal ablation in node negative radical prostatectomy patients at high risk for progression will result in an improvement in disease-free survival at five years.

Interventions

  • DRUG Leuprolide Acetate
  • DRUG Flutamide
