Study Summary

This trial is studying Sn-117m-DTPA to see if it can help reduce bone pain in patients with prostate cancer that has spread to the bones.

Who is the study for?
Men with prostate cancer that has spread to bones, resistant to castration treatment, and experiencing moderate to severe bone pain. They must have a low testosterone level due to medication or surgery, rising PSA levels despite therapy, and at least two bone metastases confirmed by scans. Participants need proper liver function, controlled HIV or hepatitis if present, no major heart issues (class 2B or better), an ECOG status of <=2 (able to do light work), adequate blood counts and kidney function. Men must agree to use contraception during the study.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial is testing Sn-117m-DTPA's effectiveness in reducing bone pain for men whose prostate cancer has spread there. It involves administering this radioactive therapeutic agent which targets bones specifically. The study will monitor changes in patients' reported pain levels after receiving the treatment.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects include typical reactions associated with radiation therapies such as fatigue, nausea, skin irritation at injection sites, and possible allergic reactions specific to Sn-117m-DTPA components. There may also be risks related to radioactivity exposure like temporary hair loss or blood count changes.

Experimental Treatment
Group I: Supportive care (tin Sn 117m DTPA)Experimental Treatment2 Interventions
Patients receive tin Sn 117m DTPA IV over 5-10 minutes on day 1. Treatment repeats every 8 weeks for 2 cycles in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients may receive tin Sn 117m DTPA for an additional 2 cycles if pain recurs within 6 months after a 16-week pain observation period and no disease progression on bone scans, or evidence of clinical progression.
