Study Summary

This trial is studying giving monoclonal antibody therapy and chemotherapy drugs together followed by a stem cell transplant in patients with prostate cancer that has spread.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with metastatic prostate cancer that hasn't improved with hormone therapy. They should have a good performance status, adequate bone marrow function, normal liver and kidney tests, and no severe heart or lung conditions. Patients must not have had certain prior treatments like radiotherapy to most of the skeleton or recent chemotherapy.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study is testing if combining monoclonal antibody therapy with chemotherapy followed by peripheral stem cell transplantation can effectively treat metastatic prostate cancer resistant to hormone therapy. It's in Phase I to determine the treatment's safety and effectiveness.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include reactions specific to monoclonal antibodies such as allergic responses, plus typical chemotherapy-related issues like fatigue, nausea, hair loss, increased risk of infection due to low blood counts, and possible organ damage.
