Clinical Trial Details

Testing the Addition of the Drug Relugolix to the Usual Radiation Therapy for Advanced-Stage Prostate Cancer (NRG PROMETHEAN)

Complete Title: A PHASE II DOUBLE-BLINDED, PLACEBOCONTROLLED TRIAL OF PROSTATE OLIGOMETASTATIC RADIOTHERAPY WITH OR WITHOUT ANDROGEN DEPRIVATION THERAPY IN OLIGOMETASTATIC PROSTATE CANCER (NRG PROMETHEAN)
Trial Phase: II
Investigator: Emily Weg

This phase II trial tests whether relugolix and radiation therapy works to shrink tumors in patients with prostate cancer that has spread in a limited way to 1 to 5 other parts of the body (oligometastatic). Testosterone can cause the growth of prostate cancer cells. Relugolix lowers the amount of testosterone made by the body. This may help stop the growth of tumor cells that need testosterone to grow. Giving relugolix with radiation therapy may help lower the chance of prostate cancer growing or spreading.
