Cell Kinetic Study of Bromodeoxyuridine (BrdU) in Prostate Cancer
OBJECTIVES:
I. Measure the potential doubling times of multifocal adenocarcinomas of the prostate using
broxuridine.
II. Determine whether the doubling times of multifocal carcinomas occurring within a single
prostate are consistent with a model in which low-volume carcinomas have slow doubling times
and high-volume carcinomas have fast doubling times.
OUTLINE:
Patients receive broxuridine IV over 30 minutes on day -1. Approximately 12-96 hours later,
patients undergo surgery to remove the prostate. Tumor tissue is examined by immunostaining
for the presence of broxuridine to determine doubling times of the tumor.
