Brief Summary: RATIONALE Calcitriol may help tumor cells develop into normal cells Dexamethasone may increase the effectiveness of calcitriol by making tumor cells more sensitive to the drug

PURPOSE Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of combining calcitriol with dexamethasone in treating patients with prostate cancer who have undergone surgery or radiation therapy
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES

Determine whether calcitriol and dexamethasone can slow the rise in prostate-specific antigen PSA levels in patients with early recurrent prostate cancer after prior radical prostatectomy or radiotherapy
Determine the safety of this regimen in these patients
Determine the utility of serum PSA in monitoring the therapeutic effect of calcitriol in these patients

OUTLINE Patients are stratified according to prior therapy radical prostatectomy vs radiotherapy

Patients receive oral calcitriol once daily on days 1-3 alone on week 1 Beginning on week 3 patients receive calcitriol as in week 1 and oral dexamethasone on days 0-4 Courses repeat every 2 weeks in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity

PROJECTED ACCRUAL A total of 56 patients 28 per stratum will be accrued for this study
