Gemcitabine and Docetaxel in Treating Patients With Metastatic Prostate Cancer
Completed · Phase 2
Conditions studied: Prostate Cancer
In brief
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as gemcitabine and docetaxel, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving more than one drug (combination chemotherapy) may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well giving gemcitabine together with docetaxel works in treating patients with metastatic prostate cancer.
