Brief Summary: RATIONALE Male hormones can stimulate the growth of prostate cancer cells Hormone therapy using flutamide and finasteride may fight prostate cancer by reducing the production of male hormones

PURPOSE Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of flutamide and finasteride in treating prostate cancer patients with high PSA levels who were previously treated with radiation therapy or radical prostatectomy
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES

Determine the efficacy of finasteride and flutamide in suppressing prostate specific antigen PSA levels in patients with elevated PSA after definitive radiation therapy or radical prostatectomy for prostate cancer
Assess sexual function and other quality of life issues during this therapy
Estimate the response to flutamide withdrawal in this group of patients who have not had a major reduction in circulating testosterone levels
Measure the response rate to further hormonal manipulation with combined androgen blockade after the failure of this therapy
Obtain data that may predict more aggressive disease

OUTLINE This is a multicenter study

Patients receive finasteride and flutamide by mouth three times a day Patients experiencing recurrence or a greater than 4 numL above 50 increase in PSA level will discontinue flutamide treatments Otherwise patients continue therapy in the absence of unacceptable toxicity or disease progression

Quality of life is assessed prior to therapy and at 3 and 6 months

Patients are followed every 3 months for one year and every 6 months thereafter

PROJECTED ACCRUAL This study will accrue 100 patients over 2 years
