Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of flavopiridol in treating patients with recurrent prostate cancer after hormone therapy. Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

OBJECTIVES:

I. Evaluate the clinical effectiveness of flavopiridol in patients with metastatic androgen independent adenocarcinoma of the prostate.

II. Assess the toxic effects of flavopiridol in this patient population.

OUTLINE:

Patients receive intravenous flavopiridol over 72 hours every 2 weeks for at least 4 courses. After 2 courses of treatment, patients not experiencing unacceptable toxic effects may receive a dose escalation. Patients are followed every 3 months until death.
