Brief Summary: RATIONALE Imaging procedures such as PET scan may help doctors predict a patients response to treatment and help plan the best treatment
PURPOSE This clinical trial is studying carbon-11 acetate and fludeoxyglucose F 18 PET scan of the bone in patients with metastatic prostate cancer that has spread to the bone
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES
Primary
Correlate pre-treatment and 3-month post-treatment carbon-11 11C acetate and fludeoxyglucose F 18 positron emission tomography 18F-FDG PET images with changes in clinical response measures in patients with bone-dominant metastatic prostate cancer
Secondary
Compare 11C acetate and 18F-FDG PET scanning results with bone scintigraphy in these patients to determine which best predicts clinical response Correlate changes in 11C acetate and 18F-FDG PET with changes in prostate-specific antigen level Correlate changes in 11C acetate and 18F-FDG PET with clinical symptom parameters pain scale scores and analgesic usage scales Correlate 11C acetate and 18F-FDG PET scan response with clinical time to progression Determine if PET scan response can predict duration of progression-free survival
OUTLINE This is a pilot study Patients are stratified according to hormone response sensitive stratum 1 vs refractory stratum 2
Patients undergo carbon-11 acetate and fludeoxyglucose F 18 positron emission tomography imaging prior to and 3 months after initiation of either androgen-deprivation therapy stratum 1 or docetaxel stratum 2
Pain and quality of life are assessed at baseline and at 3 months
Patients are followed every 3 months for up to 5 years
PROJECTED ACCRUAL A total of 40 patients will be accrued for this study
