DORA Metastatic Prostate Cancer Trial
Protocol: STUDY00004812
Full Title
Phase III Trial of Docetaxel vs. Docetaxel and Radium-223 for Metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer (mCRPC)
Description
This study enrolls men with prostate cancer. The purpose of this study is to compare using radium-223 and docetaxel chemotherapy treatment vs. using docetaxel alone in men with Metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer (mCRPC). Radium223 has been FDA approved to treat men with prostate cancer that has spread to the bone, but it has not been approved for men with cancer that has spread to soft tissue or in combination with the chemotherapy drug docetaxel.

You will take the study drugs for about 8 months, which will include follow up visits. After that, your doctor will call to see how you are doing every 6 months. You will be randomly assigned, like the flip of a coin, to take either docetaxel or docetaxel and prednisone plus radium-223.
