A single center open-label uncontrolled study to investigate the prostate specific antigen (PSA) and tumor vascularization response rate of neoadjuvant therapy with BAY 43-9006 single agent therapy in patients with operable prostate cancer
ISRCTN ISRCTN62522358
ClinicalTrials.gov identifier
Public title A single center open-label uncontrolled study to investigate the prostate specific antigen (PSA) and tumor vascularization response rate of neoadjuvant therapy with BAY 43-9006 single agent therapy in patients with operable prostate cancer
Scientific title
Acronym N/A
Serial number at source NTR577
Study hypothesis In view of good pre-clinical and clinical results, it is thought that patients with prostate cancer will benefit from BAY 43-9006 in a neoadjuvant setting. We anticipate a benefit with the treatment of BAY 43-9006 when there is a PSA decline of more than 25%.
