Clinical trial NCT00002924: Gene Mutations in Patients With Advanced Prostate Cancer That Is Not Responsive to Hormone Therapy
Official title: Androgen Receptor Mutations in Hormone Refractory Prostate Cancer
Study type: OBSERVATIONAL
Overall status: COMPLETED
Conditions: Prostate Cancer
Keywords: adenocarcinoma of the prostate
recurrent prostate cancer
Lead sponsor: Alliance for Clinical Trials in Oncology
Sponsor class: OTHER
Collaborators: name: National Cancer Institute (NCI)

Accepts healthy volunteers: no
Observational model: CASE_ONLY
Time perspective: PROSPECTIVE
Sampling method: NON_PROBABILITY_SAMPLE
Study population: Eligible men enrolled on a trial of antiandrogen withdrawal had a minimum prostate-specific antigen (PSA) level of 5 ng/dL that was increasing on castration therapy including an antiandrogen. Marrow biopsies were obtained to collect prostate tumor. Additional samples were obtained from men enrolled on chemotherapy trials.

Brief summary: RATIONALE: Gene mutations may make prostate cancer cells unable to attach to androgens. This may permit the growth of prostate cancer. Gene testing may improve the identification of patients with advanced prostate cancer.

PURPOSE: Clinical trial to study the androgen receptor gene in patients with prostate cancer that is not responsive to hormone therapy.

Detailed description: OBJECTIVES:

1. the feasibility of collecting bone marrow biopsies from prostate cancer patients in a cooperative group setting
2. the incidence of marrow invasion by prostate tumor in random bone marrow biopsy
3. the influence of previous prostate radiation on obtaining prostate tumor
4. the frequency and type of AR mutations and
5. association of AR mutations with response to antiandrogen withdrawal.

Eligibility criteria: 1. Histologically proven adenocarcinoma of the prostate that is refractory to hormone therapy
2. Patients who are eligible for anticancer therapy on Protocol CLB-9480, CLB-9583, CLB-9680, or CLB-9780 are also eligible for this study if they have not started treatment on those protocols
