Study Summary

RATIONALE: Atorvastatin calcium and celecoxib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving atorvastatin calcium together with celecoxib may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well giving atorvastatin calcium together with celecoxib works in treating patients with rising PSA levels after local therapy for prostate cancer.

Primary Outcome

PSA response was defined as a decrease in slope of at least 25%, when log (PSA) is plotted vs. time.

Interventions

  • OTHER laboratory biomarker analysis
  • DRUG celecoxib
  • DRUG atorvastatin calcium
