• A Feasibility Study for Ultrasensitive Detection of Target micro-RNAs and Nucleic Acids in Small Volume Blood Samples of Advanced Stage Prostate and Kidney Cancer Patients Jacksonville, Fla., Rochester, Minn.

  The purpose of this study is to evaluate the feasibility of successfully obtaining serial finger-prick blood samples from castrate resistant prostate cancer and metastatic renal cell cancer patients using a specific (HemaSpot-SE ™) collection kit.

• A Phase 3, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Study of Ramucirumab Plus Docetaxel Versus Placebo Plus Docetaxel in Patients With Locally Advanced or Unresectable or Metastatic Urothelial Carcinoma Who Progressed on or After Platinum-Based Therapy (RANGE) Rochester, Minn.

  The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness  of the study drug ramucirumab in combination with docetaxel in patients with urothelial cancer who failed prior platinum-based therapy.

• A Phase III, Randomized, Double-Blind, Multicenter Trial Comparing Orteronel Plus Prednisone with Placebo Plus Prednisone in Patients with Chemotherapy-Naive Metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer Rochester, Minn., Jacksonville, Fla.

  The purpose of this study is to evaluate orteronel (TAK-700) combined with prednisone, compared to a placebo and prednisone, for the treatment of men with progressive, metastatic, castration-resistant prostate cancer, who have not had chemotherapy.

• A Randomized Phase III Study Comparing Standard First-Line Docetaxel/Prednisone to Docetaxel/Prednisone in Combination with Custirsen (OGX-011) in Men with Metastatic Castrate Resistant Prostate Cancer (SYNERGY) Rochester, Minn.

  The purpose of this study is to confirm that adding custirsen to standard first-line docetaxel and prednisone treatment can slow tumor progression in men who have prostate cancer, and enhance survival outcomes compared to standard first-line docetaxel and prednisone treatment alone. 

• ARMOR2: A 2 Part, Phase 2 Trial of Galeterone in the Treatment of Castration Resistant Prostate Cancer (ARMOR2) Rochester, Minn.

  A Phase 2, 2 part trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy of galeterone in castration resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) patients.

• Randomized Phase II Trial of Docetaxel with or without PSA-TRICOM Vaccine in Patients with Castrate-Resistant Metastatic Prostate Cancer Rochester, Minn., Jacksonville, Fla.

  The purpose of this study is to assess the effectiveness of treatment with docetaxel and prednisone, with or without vaccine therapy for patients who have hormone-resistant prostate cancer that has spread to other parts of the body. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as docetaxel and prednisone, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Vaccines made from an antigen may help the body build an effective immune response to kill tumor cells. It is not yet known whether docetaxel and prednisone are more effective with or without vaccine therapy in treating prostate cancer.
