New treatment option for Metastatic Castration-resistant Prostate Cancer
Official title Platinum and Taxane Chemo in Met Castration Resistant Prostate Cancer Patients With Alterations in DNA Damage Response Genes
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06439225
What this study is testing
What is Docetaxel?
Docetaxel is an investigational medicine, being studied as a potential treatment for metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer.
Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.
- What it's testing
- The usual approach for most patients who are not in a study is treatment with docetaxel. This study is being done to answer the following question: Can the chance of prostate cancer growing or spreading be lowered by adding a drug to the usual approach?
- Phase 3: a large, late-stage study
A plain-language read of the study's public ClinicalTrials.gov listing. The study team confirms the details.
