Study Summary

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as docetaxel and prednisone, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to kill tumor cells. Docetaxel may make tumor cells more sensitive to radiation therapy. Giving docetaxel together with radiation therapy and prednisone after surgery may kill any tumor cells that remain after surgery. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well giving docetaxel together with radiation therapy and prednisone works in treating patients who have undergone surgery for prostate cancer.

Primary Outcome

Subjects were followed after the intervention and monitored for PSA (Prostate Specific Antigen) decline for up to 5 years of follow-up, to determine how many had a decline and reached a PSA nadir of zero..

Interventions

  • DRUG prednisone
  • RADIATION Radiation therapy
  • DRUG docetaxel
  • PROCEDURE Radical prostatectomy
