Study Summary

VA Cooperative Study #553 is designed to prospectively evaluate the efficacy of early adjuvant chemotherapy using docetaxel and prednisone added to the standard of care for patients who are potentially cured by radical prostatectomy but who are at high risk for relapse. The standard of care is surveillance, with the addition of androgen deprivation at the time of biochemical relapse. This study will assess the effect of adding early chemotherapy to the standard of care on progression free survival in Veterans at high risk for progression after prostatectomy.

Primary Outcome

The primary objective of this study is to determine whether adding early chemotherapy based on docetaxel plus prednisone compared to standard of care alone reduces disease progression as evidenced by detectable PSA in high risk patients with prostate cancer who have undergone radical prostatectomy.

Interventions

  • DRUG Docetaxel
  • DRUG Prednisone
