High-dose testosterone plus darolutamide for metastatic prostate cancer
Treatments studied
Part of Cancer, Kidney & urinary clinical trials.
This trial tests a new combination treatment for men with advanced prostate cancer that has stopped responding to usual hormone therapy. It compares high-dose testosterone followed by darolutamide to standard care, and may help control the cancer longer.

This trial tests whether giving a high dose of testosterone before standard hormone therapy can help the treatment work longer for men with prostate cancer that has spread. You would receive testosterone injections for a short time, then a hormone blocker (darolutamide) along with continued testosterone shots.
This trial studies whether adding darolutamide to standard hormone therapy (ADT) helps men with newly diagnosed metastatic prostate cancer who are physically vulnerable. It aims to control the cancer better while checking safety and how well treatment is tolerated in this group.
This trial tests a new way of using darolutamide (a hormone therapy) together with standard chemotherapy (docetaxel) and hormone therapy (ADT) for men with prostate cancer that has spread. The goal is to see if taking darolutamide on an intermittent schedule works as well as continuous treatment.
This trial tests a combination of two hormone therapies (darolutamide plus androgen deprivation therapy) given after surgery to remove the prostate, to see if it helps prevent the cancer from coming back in men with high-risk prostate cancer. The goal is to see if this treatment can keep the cancer from spreading or returning.
This trial tests a combination of two drugs (darolutamide plus hormone therapy) along with a low dose of chemotherapy (docetaxel) for men whose prostate cancer has spread to other parts of the body. It aims to see if this combined approach is safe and effective.
This trial tests a combination of a hormone therapy pill (darolutamide) and a high-dose, precise form of radiation for men with localized prostate cancer that has high-risk features of coming back. The goal is to see if this approach is more effective than standard treatment.
