Combination Chemotherapy Followed by Surgery in Treating Patients With Localized Prostate Cancer

Completed · Phase 2

Conditions studied: Prostate Cancer

In brief

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die.

PURPOSE: Phase I/II trial to study the effectiveness of combination chemotherapy followed by surgery in treating patients who have localized prostate cancer.
