Brief Summary: The main purpose of this study is to try to find out whether adding chemotherapy to the standard treatment for your stage of prostate cancer is more effective than the standard treatment by itself The kind of treatment that most physicians would consider standard for this stage of prostate cancer is radiation therapy alone possibly in combination with hormonal therapy In this study all patients will receive chemotherapy and radiation therapy It is hoped that chemotherapy will be found to provide additional benefit but chemotherapy has significant side effects The use of chemotherapy is experimental in prostate cancer it needs to be tested to determine if it is beneficial and to find out more about the side effects of the two different treatments This study is to determine the effects good andor bad of adding chemotherapy to radiation therapy as salvage treatment for recurrent prostate cancer after surgery
Detailed Description: There is no treatment proven more effective for clinically localized prostate cancer than radical prostatectomy Nonetheless approximately 30000 men annually in the US develop recurrence of their prostate cancer after prostatectomy Radiation therapy is commonly utilized as attempted salvage treatment for patients who develop a rising PSA Prostate Specific Antigen after prostatectomy and have no evidence of metastatic disease This study is designed to determine whether concurrent chemotherapy weekly docetaxel and daily radiation therapy will result in improved disease control and survival rates over those obtained with radiotherapy alone in the treatment of men with biochemical recurrence after radical prostatectomy
