Measure
AT101 (R-(-)-Gossypol Acetic Acid)
Patients will receive Hormone therapy with at least one LHRH agent (Leuprolide Acetate or Goserelin) for 6 weeks and include bicalutamide. Patients will begin AT101 daily at 6 weeks for 3 weeks of every 4 weeks (4 weeks - 1 cycle) and continue for 8 cycles of combined therapy (combined AT101, and LHRH agonist). After 8 cycles patients will continue hormonal therapy. AT-101 : AT101 will be administered orally 20 mg/day for 21 days of a 28 day cycle. Bicalutamide : Daily bicalutamide 50 mg po is encouraged for the first month of LHRH agonist therapy to prevent a flare. Continued bicalutamide use is optional. Bicalutamide will be administered orally at a dose of 50 mg po daily, Day 1 to 28 of each cycle. LHRH agent : An LHRH agonist(Leuprolide Acetate or Goserelin)can be administered at standard dosing appropriate to the agent used.
