Who cannot take part

Copied verbatim from ClinicalTrials.gov and grouped by topic. Only the trial team decides who can take part.

Other illness

  • Known hypersensitivity or allergic response to flutamide
  • Severe hepatic impairment
  • Major medical or psychiatric illness which, in the investigator's opinion, would prevent completion of treatment and would interfere with follow up.

Who the study is looking for

  • At least one biopsy core with Gleason 7 or higher disease
  • The patient has decided to undergo brachytherapy plus androgen suppression as treatment modality for his prostate cancer (with or without supplemental external beam radiation)
  • Suitable volume of disease for biopsy:
  • clinically palpable disease corresponding to (ipsilateral to) any involved core on biopsy
  • Signed study-specific consent form prior to registration
