A Randomized, Phase II Study of GW786034 (Pazopanib) in Stage D0 Relapsed Androgen Sensitive Prostate Cancer Following Limited GnRH Agonist Therapy


PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

I. Determine if pazopanib hydrochloride is able to increase time to progression, as measured
by prostate-specific antigen (PSA), after 6 months of limited gonadotropin-releasing hormone
(GnRH) agonist therapy comprising leuprolide acetate or goserelin in patients with
androgen-sensitive relapsed stage D0 prostate cancer.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

I. Determine the adverse events in patients treated with this regimen. II. To monitor for
changes in testosterone in relationship to pazopanib therapy versus observation.

OUTLINE:

Patients receive androgen blockade comprising GnRH agonist therapy (e.g., leuprolide acetate
or goserelin acetate) for 6 months. Patients who develop metastases or have PSA progression
while on GnRH agonist therapy are removed from the study and placed on total androgen
blockade. The remaining patients are randomized to 1 of 2 treatment arms.

ARM I: Patients receive pazopanib hydrochloride orally (PO) once daily (QD) on days 1-28.
Treatment repeats every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable
toxicity.

ARM II: Patients undergo observation.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up periodically for up to 12
months.
