Current Clinical Trials
GUIDE
Prostate — Closed
The purpose of this study is to see if a prostate cancer marker in the blood (mGSTP1) can be used to guide chemotherapy treatment. Based on the level of this blood marker, some people may be able to have breaks in treatment rather than having chemotherapy continuously which is the current standard of care. This study will tell us if having these treatment breaks guided by mGSTP1 can improve how people feel during treatment while still treating the prostate cancer effectively.
If you think this trial might be right for you, please ask your doctor.
